Porchkeep is not open. No account exists, nothing has been posted by anybody, and nothing on this site describes a service running today.

Everything published about Porchkeep is on this list. Each one is reachable without an account and none of it is hidden from search.

Remove an intimate image: Removing an intimate image of you. The deadline on it is set by federal law.
Reporting an intimate image: The same process, under its descriptive name.
Child safety: Reporting a child in danger or an image of a minor. The address is published before anything opens.
Safety: How money is taken from people on services like this one, and what the app does about it on your phone.
Biometric retention schedule: The written biometric retention schedule and destruction guidelines, published under 740 ILCS 14/15(a).
Accessibility: What this site is measured against, and what is not good enough yet.
Privacy: What is held, what is never held, and how to get it back or destroyed.
Terms: Who may hold an account, what is not allowed, and what ends one.

What is checkable from outside

An absence is the only kind of claim a stranger can verify without being given access to anything, which is why these are the load-bearing part of the argument.

There is no swipe gesture and no like button. Nothing registers approval of a person, so no opinion about you becomes a number stuck to you.
No position is read. The app imports no location framework and its Info.plist declares no location purpose string, so iOS never raises that prompt.
Nothing expires and nothing is blurred. There is no timer primitive and no blur state in the design system, which is a stronger thing than a policy against building one.
Three Knocks a day, and the same three whether or not you pay. It is one constant in the model, read everywhere it is shown.
The ranking engine is never handed the list of who pays. A test ranks one city twice, everybody marked a supporter and then nobody, and demands identical output down to the reasons.
Liveness is required for every account before a word it writes is visible. No tier skips it and no purchase changes the threshold behind it.

What is not on this page

No report counts, no removal counts, no audit result, no appeal figures, and nothing about how quickly anything is answered. Those need members, an operation and a person, and the operation is one person with no members.

A safety disclosure that has stopped matching practice is not a small problem. New Jersey fined a company in this category $315,000 over one. The rule here is that a sentence needing somebody behind it does not get written until there is somebody behind it.

Porchkeep also carries a Trust Centre on a screen inside the app. Where the two differ, this site says less.

This website

porchkeep.com sets no cookies, runs no analytics, and makes no third-party request. The content security policy it is served with forbids all three, so it holds by construction rather than by intention. The app links no third-party packages either.
