I added a "Visual Sandbox" to my scanner so you can safely look at scam sites.

Up until now my tool was only a text based scraper. It would scan a suspicious link and spit out the code, hidden trackers, and text. But scammers are smart sometimes the underlying code looks completely harmless, but the actual webpage is a obvious fake login screen or scam shop.

I built a disposable "cloud camera" to look at the sites for me. It uses Python and Microsoft Playwright, running completely isolated on a Railway server.

Here is how it works:

  1. The Sandbox: You paste a sketchy link into the app.

  2. The Cloud Browser: My server spins up an invisible, temporary web browser miles away from my actual computer.

  3. The Snapshot: It safely opens the link, snaps a screenshot and then instantly destroys the fake browser.

  4. The Evidence: It sends that screenshot straight to the dashboard.

The Result: Now instead of just reading lines of code you can look right at a fully rendered phishing site safely. You don't have to risk your device, you'll instantly know exactly what the attacker is trying to pull.
