How it works

Paste a public URL, complete the human check, and run a quick best-effort risk review. ScanLens shows warning signs, redirect information where available, a plain-English explanation and a recommended next action.

Why ScanLens instead of checking a link manually?

A link can hide redirects, use a lookalike domain or make a familiar name appear trustworthy. ScanLens brings the available signals together and explains them before you decide whether to open the link.
