# Is this website legit? Check a site before you buy or sign in

Paste a web address and get a risk level (high, medium or low) with the reasons. The agent searches the web for scam reports and reviews of the domain and tries to read the site's main page (https:// plus the domain), then weighs what it found. When the site cannot be loaded, the rating rests on the search results alone. This is an AI review of public information, not a reputation database lookup, so a low rating is not a guarantee.

**Use cases:** Security, Personal productivity

**Tags:** scam, fake website, legit, online shopping, fraud, website check, reviews, phishing site
