External links were grounded in one live web search. Search snippets are leads, not independently scraped page content; rejected links remain available in Review evidence.

Not found on the collected pages: uptime and status page. This only means Scout did not find it on the pages it read; it says nothing about the company itself.

Not found in the collected public sources: public roadmap, changelog or release notes, status page, separate help center or knowledge base.

Not measurable: wayback: rate limited by archive.org, ladder stopped after 1 probe(s). A gap here means the lookup was unavailable, not that the finding is negative.

This report is based on 7 collected pages from zendesk.com, including the homepage, about page, platform page, pricing page, and developer documentation. The evidence catalog includes 177 items from these pages. External proof search was performed but only verified the existence of a review profile; no ratings or content were collected.
