Screaming Frog SEO Spider
Screaming Frog's SEO Spider is the standard desktop crawler; it exports the complete internal link graph (inlinks, outlinks, anchors, depth) and finds orphans when connected to Search Console and Analytics. It is the most flexible way to analyze links and the least automated way to build them. Free up to 500 URLs; paid licences are per user, per year.
