See the 15 differences
| Line | Rug.Tools | De.Fi Scanner |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free · no signupFree scans with no account and no wallet connection, stated on the Solana bundle checker page; the site's sitemaps list no pricing page. A $RUG token is announced but not launched: the homepage collects a waitlist for presale news and says no token purchase is collected there. It also shows a RUGPAD launchpad in private preview. | 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). |

Which one should you pick?
Pick Rug.Tools if
You want a free second opinion before buying, especially on bundled Solana launches.
The most complete free report of the series: nine documented steps from contract rules and liquidity quality to creator launch history, bundle detection and wallet relationships, ending in one of five verdicts, across Solana and six EVM chains. It is a young product with no public API and no launched token, so treat the verdict as a reading aid, not a certificate.

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.
