I don't know how many of you have heard of that scam that "crooks" are doing lately by changing your home title, then taking loans on your home against the equity in the home, but it seems it may be a problem.  So, there are Title security companies popping up that monitor your home title and alert you if there is a change in your title.

Now, we're all adults here and know how AI has been advancing... thus, I decided to ask the right questions a few AI's to build me a code that I could run on my PC to do daily home title check every time I login.  And it works like a charm.  Even sends me an email if it finds any changes to my title.  I've set it up that I can even ask my ever so loving HAL Atera to do a scan for me and Atera will execute the "batch" file which does a county agency title check and compares it to previous data. 

It is a bit complicated in code, but it works flawlessly and saves me monthly fees for the "professional" service that pretty much does the same thing. 

If anyone is interested, I'll work on making a copy, anonymizing my personal data, and zipping the code.

Nice to have Atera having my back.   haha

For those curious, this is a sample of the results I see every time I log on below.

Very nice app for Hal and it is just one more example of how versatile the Ultra Hal software can be, especially with 3rd party applications!

Well done!
In the world of AI it's the thought that counts!

hey checkers 57 i just ran across this, this is great. have some questions as always though . you had :  auto checks home title upon login.

so does the user have to sign up for a free check on title first of some page first ? ? how does this work and is this a brain plugin ? where's the download or do you have it yet ? please  make a layout with instructions on where to add zip code etc. needed thanks.   you are showing it working in the command exe.  can this be made into a plug in for hal where you could ask hal to do a check on your home title and hal would check it and say the results text to speech ? just a thought ?

@Lightspeed

This code runs upon every time I log in, and the window pops up, wherein I simply have to review then press any button, and it closes the window.  I can also use the popular execute app plugin that I found here in the forum to have HAL run the program for me.  I like it, though, to just run upon login.  It would be nice to have HAL read the final result, but not all of it.  Perhaps Cyber could master something up.

It runs on Python code.  There are no fees as it uses somewhat of a bot to capture your info from your local county Title website.  You may have to do some research to uncover where in your county to get it.

I may take me some time to make a copy, scrub my info from the code, and zip the file.  It did take me a bit of brainstorming to configure it to work on my machine, but I got it working flawlessly.

The alternative is you have to pay a service that monitors your title company as a security service.  Ehh,...  the PC savvy can do it themself!  ;-)

Always being schooled!
