See the marketing claims, dark patterns & disclosure gaps regulators scrutinize on your page — and how to make each more honest. Avoid massive FTC penalties. Detect dark patterns, misleading claims & disclosure gaps regulators are actively punishing. Protect your business from FTC enforcement. Find dark patterns and deceptive marketing claims before regulators do. You wrote your marketing copy to sell. Regulators read it for something else. "Guaranteed results," "cancel anytime," "#1," a countdown timer, a pre-checked box — most of it is written in good faith. But some of those exact phrases have cost real companies real money, and there is no obvious line between the wording that's fine and the wording that isn't. HonestSiteAudit draws that line for you, using the record of what regulators have actually enforced. Open the extension on any page of your site and, in seconds, you get: • Every flagged claim, highlighted right on the page • The real FTC action, state attorney-general case, or court settlement behind each flag — not a hypothetical • A plain-English, more defensible way to say the same thing FREE — the whole scanner, forever • All 306 source-verified rules across 37 marketing categories (earnings and income claims, health and supplement claims, "free" and auto-renew traps, fake urgency and scarcity, review and endorsement issues, dark patterns, privacy and disclosure gaps, and more) • The actual enforcement case behind every flag • Plain-English, lower-risk alternatives for risky claims • One-click labeled screenshots of any finding • Everything runs locally in your browser — a plain scan sends nothing anywhere ADD YOUR OWN CLAUDE (ANTHROPIC) KEY — still free • AI writes a more accurate, ready-to-use rewrite for each flagged claim, tailored to your page — so you can fix the wording, not just find it • The request goes from your browser straight to your own Anthropic account — the page is never sent to us, and you control the cost PRO — $29/month, or a one-time $39 for a 30-day pass • The deep whole-page review: AI re-reads your entire page in context, like a human reviewer — it finds issues the plain scan missed, drops false positives, and grades your real Legal exposure • Copy-ready fix-it prompts you can hand to a writer, a developer, or your own AI • Scheduled automatic re-checks so pages are monitored over time, with a notification when a re-check finds something new or the page's grade changes • Tamper-evident sealed records: each saved scan is hashed and independently timestamped (RFC-3161) with a server signature, so a record can't be quietly backdated or altered — verifiable offline (Team licenses for agencies are available on the website.) PRIVACY A plain scan is fully local — nothing leaves your device. Data leaves only when you choose it: (a) if you turn on AI, the page's marketing text is sent to Anthropic on your own key to analyze (never to us); (b) when you activate a paid plan, your license key and a random device ID are sent to validate your seat; (c) when you seal a record, its hash, the page URL, and the capture time are sent to obtain the independent timestamp — the page's content itself never leaves your device, only its hash. See our privacy policy for specifics. HonestSiteAudit is a software tool, not a law firm. It flags marketing patterns regulators commonly scrutinize and shows the public cases behind them; it does not tell you a site is "compliant" or "safe," and it is not legal advice.
