Paste a web address and see what this PC can actually tell you about it. No browsing is watched, nothing is uploaded, and a check happens only when you ask for one.

The best answer this check can give is “no known threat was detected”. It will not tell you a website is safe, because no software can honestly promise that. Where nothing is known, it says so in those words — unknown is never dressed up as either safe or dangerous.
The check refuses addresses on your own PC or your own network: localhost, private ranges, printers, routers and anything without a public name. It is a way to understand a website, not a network scanner, and it is written so it cannot be turned into one.
You get the reason and the source that said it, and a button to send the whole thing to your own engineer — not a call centre. Nothing about your documents or browsing goes with it.
No. There is no browser extension, no traffic monitoring and no background watching anywhere in the product. You paste an address and press Check; that is the whole feature.
No, and it never claims to. It can tell you what it checked, what it found, and what it could not determine. On a good result it says “no known threat was detected”, which is a different sentence from “this site is safe”.
It is used to contact that site once for its certificate, and to ask a reputation service if one is configured. Today none is, so nothing about the address leaves the PC at all. It is remembered locally by host name only, never with the rest of the address.
No. Windows SmartScreen and Microsoft Defender keep doing their work exactly as before. This explains what they and the address itself can tell you, in words a shop can read out over the phone.
One file, one install, and a check whenever you need one. Your engineer stays one tap away.
