Capabilities

Tools 12

check_bot

Check a trading bot name or website/domain against BotOrNot's sourced bot directory and every regulator scam record (SEC, CFTC and a state regulator crypto scam tracker). Returns a verdict (watchlist_match, documented_bot, both, no_record) with source URLs. no_record is NOT proof of safety.

Discovered
check_telegram

Check a Telegram @handle or t.me link: is it an official handle of a listed trading bot (verified on the bot's own site or docs), a known impersonator listed by the bot's own docs, a look-alike, or not in our records? Matches include custody model and incident history. A match is NOT a safety rating; unknown is not proof of a scam.

Discovered
check_website

Scam signals for a website: exact matches in a state regulator scam tracker, look-alikes of real bot domains (typos, homoglyphs, brand+words), domain age from public RDAP, HTTPS, and optional red-flag phrases in pasted text. Signals, not a verdict.

Discovered
compare_bots

Side-by-side sourced facts and report cards for two bots by slug. No winner is picked.

Discovered
get_bot

Full sourced fact sheet for one documented bot by slug (see list_bots): pricing, markets, custody model, red flags with sources, report card, impostor scam reports.

Discovered
get_changes

Recent change events: new regulator cases, new state scam-tracker reports, bot shutdowns, report-card changes and keyword-matched SEC/CFTC releases. Optionally filter by bot slug.

Discovered
get_incidents

Verified security incidents (hacks, exploits, key leaks) at trading bots: date, what happened, users affected, estimated loss as named in the sources, refund status and source URLs. Optionally filter by bot slug.

Discovered
get_leaderboard

Hyperliquid vault leaderboard from on-chain data: open vaults with >= $100k TVL ranked by 30-day PnL (USD). Refreshed daily. Past results do not predict future ones.

Discovered
get_prediction_markets

Prediction-market venues (Kalshi, Polymarket US, Gemini Predictions) with their CFTC status and official sources, plus the documented prediction-market bots and their report cards.

Discovered
get_report_card

The rule-based BotOrNot report card for a bot (Clear record, Caution, Red flags, Closed, Limited data) with the exact sourced facts and rule ids that produced it. Not a rating or investment advice; payouts never change it.

Discovered
list_bots

List documented trading bots (slug, name, category, report card, official_url). Optionally filter by category or report card result.

Discovered
search_scams

Search regulator scam and enforcement records (SEC, CFTC and a state regulator crypto scam tracker) by name, website or keyword. Every record has an official source URL. Regulator complaints are allegations until resolved.
