Recorded on November 6, 2026. Answers change from one day to the next and from one phrasing to the next, which is why we date every scan and ask the same 5 questions again. Nothing on this page is edited: it is the scan log. How the scan works.

Agencies: we run this same check every week for your clients, under your agency's name. See the agency plan.
