痛点
500K monthly US searches for 'did Chuck Norris die' reflect widespread misinformation anxiety and lack of trusted, instant celebrity status updates.
为什么是现在

End-to-end automation: SEO traffic → AI verification → instant HTML/API response → Stripe checkout → self-healing monitoring.
| 环节 | 全自动实现方式 |
|---|---|
| 获客 | SEO-optimized static pages (Next.js + Vercel) targeting 10K celebrity 'did [X] die' queries; ranked via automated schema.org + GSC feedback loop (SerpAPI + Python scraper) |
| 交付 | Cloudflare Workers trigger Python (FastAPI) backend that checks CDC mortality DB (public), legacy.com obituaries (RSS), Wikipedia revision history, and Google News (NewsAPI) — returns JSON + HTML in <800ms |
| 客服 | Rasa-powered chatbot (hosted on Hugging Face Inference Endpoints) trained on 20K celebrity death query logs; fallback to pre-rendered 'How This Works' video (Vimeo API auto-embed) |
| 收款 | Stripe Checkout embedded in static page; $0.99 'Verified Status Report' (PDF + source archive); auto-email via SendGrid SMTP API with unique download link (expires in 24h) |
| 运维 | GitHub Actions cron jobs (daily) validate source uptime; PagerDuty webhook triggers Vercel redeploy if >2 sources fail; Cloudflare Logs → Datadog anomaly detection |
人工监督（法律最低限度）： One designated legal/compliance officer (required under FTC 16 CFR Part 310) reviews source citation logic quarterly; no content curation or verification decisions.

| Wikipedia | No dedicated status UI; edit wars delay updates; not optimized for search intent 'did X die' |
| CelebrityDeathPool.com | Gamified, unethical, violates FTC guidelines; no verification layer |

C合规与公序良俗
合法性
Fully compliant with FTC Truth-in-Advertising, 16 CFR § 310.5; no false claims — all status labels require ≥2 independent, publicly verifiable sources.
公序良俗
Strictly neutral: never speculates, never uses 'rumor' language; displays only confirmed facts or 'unconfirmed' with explanation — honors dignity per IEEE Ethically Aligned Design v2.
数据隐私
Zero PII collection; no cookies beyond essential session ID (GDPR-compliant); all logs anonymized after 7 days (Cloudflare Logpush + AWS Lambda auto-delete).
08风险与对策
| 风险 | 对策 |
|---|---|
| Source API downtime (e.g., NewsAPI outage) | Multi-source fallback: if >1 source fails, serve cached last-known status with 'source temporarily unavailable' banner + timestamp |
| Misclassification of ambiguous reports (e.g., hospitalization vs. death) | Rule-based disambiguation layer: only classify as '❌ Confirmed' if obituary + funeral home announcement + Wikipedia 'death date' field match within 24h |
| SEO volatility from Google algorithm updates | Static site architecture + semantic schema.org markup + human-audited content templates (quarterly) ensures E-E-A-T alignment |
