MT Intelligence
Social Growth Co LLC is registered in Colorado and operated by Zac Baker, with an active business status and a 1304-day-old domain. However, independent review aggregators assigned the parent domain a low trust score of 36.3/100, and scam-report databases flagged it as spam in connection with marketing practices. The app subdomain itself is a bare login portal with no business contact details, privacy policy, or terms of service visible — a pattern common to both legitimate SaaS dashboards and credential-harvesting pages. The company's an independent review aggregator page (social-growth.co) shows mixed reviews with account-access complaints. Our antivirus network and browser blocklists show no malicious detections, and the SSL certificate is valid. The low trust score and spam history, combined with the minimal transparency on the login page, warrant caution.
