Frequently asked questions

Those tools tell you when a keyword appears or a URL changes. Reality Radar starts from what you own and use, checks official structured sources, and explains why a change concerns you, how sure we are and what to do next.

No. You add items manually or from the catalog. We never ask for passwords to other services and we never read your inbox.

Each signal shows a match level. Exact means an identifier such as GTIN, VIN or version matched. If only the name is similar, we say it may apply and ask you to check — we never present an uncertain match as confirmed.

No. Sources are checked on schedules that respect their rules, typically every few hours to once a day. Each signal shows when it was first seen and last checked.
