🔒	"Check stripe.com's SSL cert — is it valid and when does it expire?"
🌍	"Who registered openai.com and when? Has the WHOIS record changed recently?"
💱	"Convert 2500 USD to EUR, GBP, and JPY at today's live rate."
🔍	"Check if these 20 domain names are available for registration."
📡	"What DNS records does github.com have? Show me the full MX and TXT records."
