STATIC RESEARCH
Available
Product records, ownership guides, methodology and published evidence are static files. If you can read this page, that part of LessBother is reachable.
LESSBOTHER STATUS
A live checker being down is different from LessBother having no evidence. This page keeps those cases separate.

LIVE TOOLS API
Sale Checker, Media Check, Political Money and the private contact relay depend on the live API.
AI SOURCE WATCH
The AI Trust watcher monitors official policy, privacy and advertising sources separately from the reviewed baseline.
SALE HISTORY WATCH
Background rechecks build dated price history separately from a one-time live Sale Checker result.
EVIDENCE MAINTENANCE
The daily evidence workflow checks monitored primary sources and queues material wording changes for review.
Static research available + API unavailable: published evidence is still readable; live checks may fail temporarily.
AI watcher needs attention: one or more monitored official sources failed their last fetch. That does not automatically change an AI Trust conclusion.
Sale history watch delayed: queued listings are substantially past their target recheck time. A current Sale Checker result can still work, but background history may be growing more slowly.
Evidence maintenance delayed: the main source-monitoring loop has failures or substantially overdue sources. Published research remains readable, but freshness may lag until the next successful checks.
No result from a tool: never treat a technical failure as a favorable verdict.
