    Very similar to VirusTotal.

    It also provides a Sandbox Scan for certain filetypes, and a feature called "Deep CPR" where it recreates the uploaded document without malisicous components (Sanitization)

    This is the best scanner ever, the detail of the scan algorithm is very good. You can also use start parameters and get excellent scan depth with the right settings! This is not a static analysis but a dynamic one, I'm quite excited.
