|---|---|---|
| Price | Free scanner · paid PRO tierThe contract auditor is listed as free on the site, and the docs describe the scanner, Shield revocation and the API without a public price list: Scanner PRO and Advanced Shield are the paid tiers, and the API is metered in credits (assetsPrices costs 1 credit, 100 calls a minute in the documented example). | Free · public API, no keyFree and open: no account, and the v2 API answers without a key. A live call returned the full simulation, including taxes, gas, contract flags and pair liquidity. |

Which one should you pick?
Pick De.Fi Scanner if
You check EVM contracts before signing, and you want a score plus an approval revoker in the same place.
The industrial option on EVM: 80+ checks per contract, a security score, an AI score built on reputation, sybil and swap behaviour, top-10 holder and liquidity endpoints, and a wallet shield that revokes approvals. Everything is EVM-only, the chain list is published as a count rather than a table, and its referral and pricing pages are rendered client-side, so their conditions could not be read.

Pick Honeypot.is if
You are about to buy on BSC, Ethereum or Base and want the one answer that matters: can I sell it?
The narrowest tool of the series and the one with the fewest excuses: it actually buys and sells the token for you and reports the result, with buy, sell and transfer taxes, gas, the honeypot reason, open-source and proxy flags, and the pair's liquidity. Three chains only, and nothing about holders or wallets.
