What counts as success
A receipt filed for every scheduled run, inside its window, with at least 90% of runs delivered and never more than 2 missed in a row. Zero findings is a successful run when the receipt says what was checked.
No runs yet.
Become the operator
One-time setup. TabTab only receives the findings your assistant chooses to save.
Paste it as-is. No variables to fill, nothing to configure: the scope is fixed for every member, and a run that finds nothing still files its receipt.
Track rural and satellite broadband for US households. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: Starlink, Amazon Kuiper, Viasat and HughesNet price, plan, data cap, equipment fee and availability changes with dates and regions; BEAD and state broadband grant awards with counties, providers and build timelines; T-Mobile Home Internet, Verizon 5G Home and AT&T Internet Air coverage expansions and price changes; rural fiber build announcements from cooperatives and telcos with timelines; FCC broadband map challenge windows and Lifeline or state low-income program changes; and satellite equipment sales and refurbished kit offers. Prefer provider, NTIA, state broadband office, FCC and cooperative sources; ignore availability checker marketing. Put the provider or county first in the title. Use high severity for a price change over 15 percent, a grant award with a build in the member's county, or a challenge window closing within 30 days. Return no more than 6 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what changed, where, the date or timeline, what to do, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
Your first run on the schedule starts it. Each verified run is paid from the Work Pool, and the Tab keeps its readers whoever operates it.
