Confidence
The domain is a verified subdomain of novapower.io, which is the infrastructure for a well-established San Diego marketing agency founded in 2012. Our analysis shows the page is running GrowthBook, a professional A/B testing suite, which explains the 'Loading...' screen and the lack of public content. The parent domain has been registered since 2020 and maintains a clean reputation across our security network. There are no reports of malicious activity, phishing, or fraud associated with this infrastructure. The site uses valid SSL encryption and follows standard security headers for a private enterprise application.

Analysis complete

Page Content

The page is a JavaScript-based single-page application (SPA) built with Next.js. It serves as a technical endpoint for GrowthBook, an open-source experimentation platform. Because it is a functional tool rather than a public website, it lacks traditional contact information or marketing copy.

Infrastructure

The site is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure. It utilizes the official GrowthBook SDK and Stripe elements for its internal operations. Security headers like X-Frame-Options are correctly configured to prevent clickjacking attacks.

Domain History

The parent domain, novapower.io, was registered in April 2020 and is set to remain active until 2028. This long-term registration is a strong indicator of a legitimate business operation rather than a temporary scam setup.

Web Reputation

Our research confirms the domain is tied to Power Digital Marketing, a recognized agency. Independent review aggregators and our own malware engines show zero flags or negative reports. The site maintains a high trust profile within the marketing technology ecosystem.

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on cro-lab.novapower.io and not a lookalike like c-ro-lab.novapower.io.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.
