Domain Trust

Trust scoring for domains and links

Domain Trust helps platforms assess whether a domain or URL is likely to be risky, deceptive, or abusive — returning explainable outcomes that can be enforced or reviewed with confidence.

Built for link-heavy workflows

Links and domains are common vectors for scams and abuse. Domain Trust provides a simple, API-first way to score risk before URLs are exposed to users or propagated across your platform.

What you can do with Domain Trust

  • Score domains and URLs before publishing or distribution.
  • Flag suspicious or low-reputation domains early.
  • Return reason codes to support warnings, review, or blocking.
  • Recheck domains as reputation or behaviour changes.
  • Strengthen other trust decisions with reliable link signals.

How it works

  • Input: domain or URL (plus optional context).
  • Signals: footprint, age, reputation, and behavioural indicators.
  • Output: risk score, risk level, reason codes, and recommended action.
  • Designed for: allow, warn, review, or block workflows.

“At GoHire we process thousands of job postings every month, and fraudulent ads were becoming a real risk to both our clients and candidates. Since integrating Ruvia’s Trust API, we automatically block 98% of scam job postings before they go live. It’s seamless, highly accurate, and gives us a huge competitive edge in building trust with our customers.”

Frequently asked questions

Is Domain Trust just a phishing scanner?

No. Domain Trust provides trust scoring and explainable signals that can be used in moderation and decision workflows. It complements, rather than replaces, other security controls.

Can we show warnings instead of blocking?

Yes. Many platforms start with warnings or review for higher-risk domains and escalate enforcement as confidence grows.

Can domains be rechecked over time?

Yes. Domain Trust is designed to support re-evaluation as reputation, behaviour, or context changes.

Is there a sandbox key?

Yes — you can start with a sandbox key to test responses and reason codes before integrating into production.
