Paste a link. Get the buying risk.
Before you buy it, veto it.
Paste a public product link before checkout. Reviewed products return a Veto Score, evidence, and next move; unknown links get an honest quick check without an invented verdict.
Use a public product page URL or a known reviewed product name. Cart, order, account, receipt, invoice, return, and payment links stay out.

Includes 21 evidence items across 20 sources, plus verdict, score components, and next move.
Unknown links
7 public quick checks

Privacy floor
0 private docs requested
No receipts, bills, IDs, payment data, addresses, private documents, or account login required.
Fixed score bands
Read the score before you trust it.
A Veto Score is reviewed buying risk. Lower is less reviewed risk. Higher means stronger reason to wait, compare, or veto until better evidence or checkout terms change the decision.
Buy
0-24Lowest reviewed buying risk. Confirm seller terms, fit, and total price.
Buy With Caveat
25-49Reasonable only if the named caveat does not matter for your use case.
Wait
50-69Slow down, compare alternatives, or wait for better terms and evidence.
Risky Buy
70-84Buy only with strong return, warranty, support, or price protection.
Veto
85-100Skip unless new reviewed evidence changes the core risk.
Fast paths

Real products people already debate before checkout.
Start with recognizable products, real product photos, and scorecards that separate a reasonable buy from hidden-cost risk, fit friction, or marketing overreach.
Reviewed finder
Find a reviewed scorecard fast.
Search by product, category, verdict, or risk pattern. Results stay limited to reviewed scorecards with attached evidence.
Unknown products belong in Veto Lab first. A missing match here is not a product-quality signal.

Scores are reviewed buying risk, not personal fit guarantees.
Herman Miller Aeron Chair
Size or fit mismatch
The main caveat is fit. Aeron can be excellent, but size selection, posture preference, and used-condition checks change the buy decision.

Instant Pot Duo 60
Buyer checks: fit, seller identity, total price, returns, and warranty
Use buyer checks before checkout: fit, seller identity, total price, returns, and warranty. Usage fit is the main caveat: it is a buy only if pressure cooking or batch cooking is already part of the routine.

Apple AirPods Pro
Battery degradation risk
Battery aging is the main buying caveat. The product can be great, but the sealed earbud format makes long-term ownership less forgiving.

Levoit LV-H133 Air Purifier
Hidden-cost risk
Filter cost and room-fit claims are the main watchouts. Check replacement filter pricing and realistic coverage before buying.

Amazon Echo Dot
Subscription or refill pressure
The main risk is ecosystem creep. The device is cheap, but the value depends on comfort with Alexa, connected accounts, and optional services.

Marketing overreach
The hardware is credible, but the buying risk is workload fit. It is specialized AI hardware, not a general-purpose desktop upgrade.

iRobot Roomba
Hidden-cost risk
The main watchout is ownership friction: brushes, filters, floor layout, and app expectations can matter more than the sticker price.

Product Duel
Test your buying-risk read.
The most rewarding check is the one that changes a decision before checkout. Make the pick first, then reveal the scores, buying notes, and whether the lower-risk call was clear or tied.
Buyer training round
Make the lower-risk call before the reveal.
Round 1 of 3
Pick the product you think has the lower Veto Score. If the scores tie, either pick counts and the reveal shifts to buying notes.
Product veto categories
Browse by the risk that actually changes the buy.
Category pages are built around reviewed scorecards and submitted public-link demand. Requests show what buyers want reviewed next, not which products are better.
