The honest bit
This is a self-serve guide, not a done-for-you service. You follow the steps in your own accounts, so nothing needs our access or your passwords. It works with any phone setup or AI provider; if you'd rather have it done for you, that's the ClawbitAI service. Rules on marketing messages, call recording and reviews are kept to the basics with pointers to the ICO, CMA and Google's policies; it isn't legal advice. No results are promised: the test shows you your own. The Vault is new, so there are no customer reviews yet. If it isn't what you expected, email matthewcreighton181@gmail.com and Matthew will put it right.
