Sayali Ranade

A single small brass house-number plate lying on a sheet of dark green card, a brass magnifying loupe resting at an angle across one corner of it, lamplight from the upper left.

Sayali writes the pages about addresses. Her starting point is a habit most people never think about: we read an address the way we read a shop sign, by the word that stands out, and skip the small print on either side of it. In a niche where seven names can share the word "lotus", the small print is the part that decides where your password goes.

Tested on an ordinary phone

Every check she describes is one she has run on an ordinary Android phone with Chrome, step by step, before writing it down. If a step depends on a setting that differs between phones, she says so rather than pretending the path is the same everywhere.

She does not name addresses, link to them, or call any of them genuine or fake. Her view is that a reader armed with a way to check does not need a verdict from a stranger — and a verdict from a stranger is exactly what a copy would like readers to rely on.

No verdicts, no contact

She will never ask a reader for a password, a code or an ID, offer to look at someone's account, or publish a phone number. Corrections to her pages go to the email in the footer, and she answers them by changing the page, not by writing to the reader privately.
