About Open Graph Preview
The Open Graph Preview shows how a link will look when pasted into Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter/X — image, title, domain and description rendered as an actual share card — and generates the matching og: and twitter: meta tags to put in the page's head. It closes the gap between writing Open Graph tags blind and actually seeing the card readers will see: think of it as an og image preview and facebook share preview in one, plus a twitter card preview so the same link looks right on every platform.
It's used before a launch post to confirm the thumbnail image crops correctly and the title isn't cut off, to compare a large-image Twitter card against a small-summary card side by side, and to catch a broken image URL before it goes live as a blank gray box in someone's feed. Each platform enforces different title and description truncation lengths on the card itself — Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn all clip at slightly different points — so the preview truncates per-platform rather than applying one generic limit, and a tab switcher moves between all three without retyping anything.
The generated tags cover both Open Graph (read by Facebook and LinkedIn, and used by Twitter as a fallback) and the dedicated Twitter Card tags, with a toggle between the large-image card (a big image above the title) and the small summary card (a thumbnail beside the title) — the right choice depends on whether the linked image reads well cropped small. All rendering happens locally: the preview image is simply loaded from the URL you provide, exactly as the sharing platform would load it, and nothing about the page is uploaded anywhere by this tool.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the same title look different on Facebook vs. Twitter?
Each platform truncates card titles and descriptions at a different character length, so a title that fits fully on LinkedIn's wider card can get clipped on Twitter's narrower one. The preview applies each platform's real limit.
What's the difference between summary and summary_large_image?
summary_large_image shows a full-width image above the title and description — better for photos and graphics. summary shows a small square thumbnail beside the text — better when the image isn't the main draw.
My image doesn't show up in the preview — why?
The image URL is either unreachable, blocked by the source server's hotlink protection, or not a direct image link. The same failure would happen on the real platform, so this is worth fixing before publishing.

Yes, the Open Graph Preview is completely free with no usage limits. No signup, no account and no installation required.
