# LookalikeGuard

> LookalikeGuard finds registered lookalike, typosquat and impersonation domains of a brand (for example examp1e.com or example-login.com for example.com), scores each one 0-100 by risk with the reasons shown, and monitors for new ones. It is monitoring and early warning only: no takedowns, no legal advice. Results are automated and can contain mistakes.

## What it does
- Free one-time scan, no sign-up: generates typos, look-alike characters (homoglyphs/IDN), other extensions (TLD swaps), bitsquats and added words like "login" or "support", then checks which are registered.
- Uses public data only: DNS, registration (RDAP) records, public certificate transparency logs and each domain's public web page.
- Risk score 0-100 per finding with reasons (recent registration, mail servers, login form, copied page title or icon, fresh TLS certificate).
- Paid monitoring: certificate transparency log watch, daily re-scan, follow-up checks at 1, 7 and 30 days, email alerts or daily digest, signed webhooks, CSV export, JSON API, monthly summary.

## Who it is for
Online stores, local businesses, SaaS companies, agencies and MSPs: anyone whose customers pay, log in or take email from their domain.

## How an agent can run a scan for a user
- No key needed: GET https://lookalikeguard.com/api/v1/scan?domain=example.com (JSON; waits up to ~150 s, else HTTP 202 with an id to poll at /api/v1/results/{id}). Per-IP rate limit; HTTP 429 when exceeded; results under 1 hour old are reused.
- Human-readable alternative: send the user to https://lookalikeguard.com/ and have them enter the domain; results get a shareable /r/<id> link.
- OpenAPI spec: https://lookalikeguard.com/openapi.json (same as /api/openapi.json). Interactive docs: https://lookalikeguard.com/api/docs
- With a user's API key (Authorization: Bearer ...): monitored domains, findings since a timestamp, feedback, webhook test.
- Monitoring requires the user to sign in and pay; agents should not sign up or pay on a user's behalf without the user's approval.
