Transparency statement
Credibility is the only moat of an auditing site. This page states where our money comes from, which samples we produce ourselves, and the red lines that commerce can never cross.
Revenue model
- C-end subscriptions (Pro / Team) and detection packs — they buy more detection runs and engineering benefits (API rate limits, monitoring seats, webhooks), nothing else.
- B-end merchant subscriptions and certification review packs (pro-level re-review by deep-tier detection).
- Every paid path is processed manually until real payment channels are connected; nothing is auto-activated.
Official samples
The only samples we produce are platform-funded official samples (3× weight, seeds and results published). The monthly sampling audit draws 3 gateways from the Top 20 for deep re-verification; inconsistent results are published as-is — including any that reflect badly on us.
Hard red lines
- Paid features never affect scores, verdicts, ranking or display weight — enforced by architecture-assertion tests in CI, not by policy documents.
- Insufficient evidence is always shown in neutral gray; it is never a verdict.
- Certification badges are identity displays only — never a ranking key.
- We refuse any sponsorship or paid placement until the board exceeds 200 gateways and 50k monthly PV; even then placements stay outside the natural ranking with visible ad labels.
