Five questions an AI should always ask.
Each answers in seconds, with a signed receipt.
Five questions, five receipts
Is this page really online?
Your AI just published, or is about to rely on a link. Confirme visits the page from another network, follows redirects one by one, measures response time, reads the title, checks the security certificate and fingerprints the content.
Why it matters. Seen from elsewhere, to the second. A page cached on your side can be dead for the rest of the world.
Limit, stated plainly. Does not visit private, local or password-protected pages. A site that blocks robots may answer “forbidden”: Confirme says so, it bypasses nothing.
Does this domain exist, whose is it, until when?
An unknown supplier, a link that looks like your bank’s, an email from a “client”. Confirme reads the public registry: registrar, creation and expiry dates, name servers, and your DNS: addresses, mail servers, anti-phishing policies.
Why it matters. A domain created last week posing as a ten-year-old supplier shows in one second.
Limit, stated plainly. Some registries hide dates or the registrar’s name. Confirme says so rather than inventing.
Can this address receive?
Before sending a quote, an invoice, a contract. Confirme checks syntax, the existence of receiving servers, disposable domains and generic addresses like info@ or noreply@, then gives a verdict.
Why it matters. No message is sent, nobody is disturbed. Most bounces come from typos and dead domains, visible before sending.
Limit, stated plainly. Confirme never opens a mail session: a specific mailbox may or may not exist. It tells you the address deserves a send, not that someone reads it.
My task just ran.
At the end of every successful run of a scheduled task, your AI declares it under a secret key it chooses. Confirme engraves the exact time and signs. It is the heartbeat of your automations.
Why it matters. Every run leaves a trace outside the machine that did it. If the machine lies or dies, the trace remains.
Limit, stated plainly. The heartbeat is declared by the AI itself. The receipt proves when it declared it, not what the task produced.
Did my task really run since yesterday?
The question one should ask every morning. Confirme rereads the key’s heartbeats and answers: yes or no, last heartbeat at such time, how many in the window. Silence becomes an alarm.
Why it matters. This is the tool that would have spared us four days of lost reports. It now runs on our own automations.
Limit, stated plainly. Window from 60 seconds to 90 days. The last hundred heartbeats are kept per key.
