Frequently Asked Questions

How does the IP binding work?

Your license is bound to the device/IP signature from your first login. To prevent credential sharing, subsequent logins from entirely different networks or hardware signatures simultaneously may lock the account temporarily.

Can I use Painbase in Brazil?

Yes! Painbase has specialized LP parsing algorithms to parse Portuguese text and subreddits specifically tailored to the Brazilian market (r/brasil, r/brdev, TabNews, etc).

What is the Secure Private API?

With a paid license, you get programmatic access to our problem database. Founder licenses have meter limits, while Enterprise accounts have unmetered access to pipe raw data straight into your own software.

Do I get updates?

Yes. Painbase updates its problem database continuously throughout the day. You always get real-time market frustration.
