Show HN: SaaS Vulnerability Scanner for Small Businesses

I assume it got flagged because it looks scammy at best. This is a one-page site with practically no information offered about the service supposedly being provided, no information at all about the company behind it, and the signup button takes you straight to a card payment popup. Honestly, I find it difficult to believe this is a real attempt at a launch.

It's quite common when someone posts something to 'Show HN' for some of the more affluent member of this community to sign up just to see if it works; perhaps the flaggers feel this website has been set up to take advantage of this.

I assure you this is a real launch... This is indeed a one page website, but the service we provide requires only that for the moment. Once the user subscribe, he will start receiving the scan reports on his mail box...

Try to look at it from a user's perspective: no information about product or provider, just a few words and a card payment form. Have you, or would you, ever provide your card details in such circumstances?

I understand your concern. And clearly we should have communicated better, but having the link flagged while it is on the HN homepage for our launch seems a little bit excessive.
