Cost and free path
Cost: Free: one complete run in this browser, no account. Optional $4 one-time unlock allows unlimited runs of this tool on this browser. The free path and safety guidance never require payment.
Rule status (private-right route): structural: repair-or-replace arithmetic (quote, remaining life, trade-in, plan cost) does not depend on a rule; where a warranty or a state repair rule applies, the refusal has to state its lawful reason, and the written quote is what the complaint attaches to. Reviewed 2026-10-03 against current warranty and state repair law.
Automated decision this documents: trade-in and upgrade pricing that assumes a replacement decision before the repair is priced
Free path, in order (no cost):
Consumer Reports — repair and reliability guidance (consumerreports.org)
FTC reports and consumer alerts on warranties and repair (ftc.gov/reports)
211 — local device-donation and low-cost hardware programmes (211.org)
What this cannot do: It cannot enrol you in a programme, connect a service, or guarantee that free help is available where you live.

This tool reduces uncertainty; it does not replace a bank's fraud department, a mental-health professional, legal advice, a school privacy contact, or qualified technical help, and it cannot prove that a call, message, account, decision, or AI system is safe.
