What we're building and when you can use it

ShieldMarc is being built in the open. We have not gone quiet behind a closed beta waiting for a polished launch moment. The platform is live, it is being tested, and we are shipping improvements every week. This post is a snapshot of where things stand, what is coming next, and how you can get involved.

Where we are today

The free tools are already live and available to everyone. You can run a DMARC check, SPF lookup, SSL inspection, DNS query, DNSSEC verification, and more without creating an account. Selected tools include an AI explanation in plain English, so you do not need to be a DNS specialist to understand what your results mean or what to do next.

Behind those free tools, the full monitoring platform is in active development. This is the part of ShieldMarc that watches your domains continuously, processes your DMARC aggregate reports, flags threats, tracks DNS changes, monitors SSL certificates, detects lookalike domains, and gives you a single dashboard across everything.

The core of the platform is functional today. DMARC report ingestion, domain health monitoring, threat scoring, DNS change tracking, and the dashboard are all working and being refined with real data. What remains is hardening, polish, and the onboarding experience that makes it ready for teams to self-serve.

What we are working on right now

• 1

  DMARC report processing at scale

  The report ingestion pipeline handles aggregate (RUA) reports and surfaces per-source pass/fail rates, alignment breakdowns, and threat indicators. We are optimising this for organisations managing dozens or hundreds of domains.

• 2

  AI threat evaluation

  Every DMARC report row passes through a multi-signal scoring engine and an AI evaluation layer. The goal is to separate genuine threats from noise so that you see what actually matters, not a wall of data.

• 3

  MSP and multi-domain management

  Managed service providers are a core audience. The platform is being built so that an MSP can onboard all of their client domains, see health at a glance, and act on the most urgent issues first.

  Onboarding and self-service setup

  Adding a domain, verifying ownership, and configuring DMARC reporting needs to be straightforward enough that you can do it in minutes without contacting support. That flow is being built and tested now.

When you can expect public access

We are targeting July 2026 for the public launch of the ShieldMarc monitoring platform. That means open registration, self-service onboarding, and the full feature set available to paying customers.

Between now and then, we will be running a limited early access period with a small number of organisations to validate the platform under real conditions. If you want to be part of that, registering your interest is the best way to get on the list.

We would rather launch slightly later with something solid than rush out something that wastes your time. July is realistic based on where we are today, but we will not cut corners to hit it.

How to join early access

If ShieldMarc sounds like something your organisation could use, you can join the early access list now. We will let you know when the platform opens for beta access and when public registration goes live.

No commitment, no credit card, no spam. Just a way for us to reach you when it is ready.

In the meantime

The free tools are live today. If you want to see where your domain stands, start with the Security Grade. It runs 15 checks across DMARC, SPF, DKIM, SSL, DNSSEC, and more, and gives you a clear score with actionable next steps.
