If Google suspended your project tomorrow, could your product survive?
Accounts get suspended over billing glitches, leaked keys and automated flags, and appeals can take days or weeks. Answer 12 questions to see what you would lose and what to fix first.
- About 3 minutes
- No sign-up
- Your answers never leave your browser
Public reports describe suspended projects with paid bills, live apps and no human reply for weeks.
When the domain, DNS, database and login sit in one account, a suspension takes all of them offline together.
A second owner, an Organization resource and a monitored owner email are in Google's own guidance.
Lockout readiness check
Answer for your main production project. If you are unsure, choose "Not sure"; it counts as not done.
Your fix list, most urgent first
Fix the red items before anything else; most take under an hour.
Want this checked for you, every week?
We are deciding whether to build a small service around this check. Join the waitlist if you would use it.
- A free, open-source kit that copies Firestore, Auth and Storage to storage you own outside Google, from your own GitHub repo.
- A paid monitor that alerts you when those copies stop arriving or a restore test is overdue.
- A recovery runbook kept up to date: owners, project and billing IDs, registrar, DNS and restore order.
- We never hold your data, keys or passwords. The monitor only receives "succeeded or failed" and counts.
We store only your email address and the date you joined. We never share or sell it. If we decide not to build the service, we delete the list. To have your email removed at any time, write to lockoutready@mail.grokbot.com.
Questions
Does this page send my answers anywhere?
No. The score is worked out in your browser and your answers are never sent. When you press “See my score”, your browser sends one anonymous “check finished” signal so we can count how many people complete it each day. It contains no answers, score or identifier. There are no cookies, analytics or trackers.
Is this from Google?
No. It is an independent project, not affiliated with or endorsed by Google. Firebase and Google Cloud are trademarks of Google LLC.
Where do the questions come from?
From Google's own project suspension guidelines and appeals advice, and from public write-ups by founders whose projects were suspended.
I am locked out right now. What should I do?
Follow the link in Google's suspension email and submit one complete appeal: the cause, what you fixed, whether it was intentional, your billing account ID and whether you were compromised. Do not file duplicates. If you cannot reach the console, Google's community team points to the Google Cloud Support contact form. This page cannot speed up an appeal.
Is this advice?
No. It is general information, not legal, financial or professional advice. Check Google's current documentation and terms for your situation.
