@marco_landi1 That's a genuinely compelling origin story. The regulatory license verification piece solves a real problem that forums and Reddit can't—automated technical validation instead of crowdsourced guessing. Curious how you're handling the constant arms race of casinos forging new credentials or rotating domains.
@saulfleischman Thanks so much for the kind words.
The 'arms race' you mentioned is our biggest engineering focus right now. To stay ahead of casinos rotating domains or faking credentials, we rely on a couple of automated layers:
When a user scans a casino, the first thing our automated scrapers pipeline searches for is the license: we mapped all the regulators across the globe and we mapped their indexes of licensed casinos. When a user scans a casino, the exact domain is checked against those index (if a casino has a local TLD the scrapers search directly for the license of that TLD). To check off-shore licensed casinos it was a little bit harder as we couldn’t find a list of licensed casinos, so we decided to use Gemini API with grounding to search for licenses. we are currently working on implementing UKGC regulatory actions, to check if a casino has been fined and for which reason. Also we are working on implementing a fast check to see the domain age, so that we can catch copycats of well known casinos.
I would trust the extension more if the report showed its work very plainly.
For this kind of product, a green or red badge is not enough. I’d want to see which license was checked, where it was verified, whether the domain matches the licensed operator, and what complaint signals were found before I deposit anything.
The Shadow DOM approach makes sense too. If the casino page itself can interfere with the warning UI, the whole safety layer becomes questionable, so keeping that report isolated is a good technical choice.
@joaquin04_cid thank you for the feedback! Our “full report page” does exactly that: it shows all the signals that moved the needle in the score, it shows the exact license found, it has the links to the online forums we checked. We are currently working on making the report the most transparent possible, because we want to ensure the users, that our reports are completely unbiased.
