- Reads structured data (schema.org), meta tags, and contact details to verify facts only: address, phone, hours, coordinates, social links.
What it never does
- Never copies your text — every Orrku description is written by a person.
- Never downloads your images.
- Never crawls beyond the page it was pointed at, and never follows links off your site.
- Never hits your site more than about once per second, with a 10-second timeout and a 2 MB cap.
