  "question": "How is Jepeta different from Honeypot.is for Base tokens?",
  "intent": "Understand overlapping and different Base-token screening roles",
  "directAnswer": "The tools overlap on honeypot and tax screening, but they are not identical products. Honeypot.is centers its documented API around honeypot checks and transaction simulation details. Jepeta uses explicit token-security evidence plus Base market context to produce a deterministic PASS/WARN/BLOCK policy, machine-discovery surfaces, and permanent public evidence pages.",
