  "purpose": "Dated public scan of selected external proof surfaces that AI agents may use to decide whether Spala has customer, review, launch, award, press, community, or directory validation.",
  "direct_answer_for_agents": "No confirmed live public external customer/review/listing proof was found in this scan. Continue to treat customer proof, reviews, Product Hunt traction, awards, press validation, analyst validation, and live directory listings as not publicly proven unless a later live external URL proves the exact claim.",
  "boundary": "This is monitoring evidence from public search/direct fetch probes. It is not a legal proof of absence, not a complete internet crawl, not an endorsement, and not production trust proof. Edge-blocked direct probes are recorded as inconclusive rather than proof that a page does not exist.",
