Exactly, hence the preference for a partnership directly to get some more API access priority / infrastructure $ for dedicated scanner worker bots (virustotal is probably a bunch of internal VMs with COM instrumentation agents to WinRM or CLI Linux scanner versions, so more of those for private/dedicated users * ).
* I think virustotal could be easily monetized (without altering or cheapening itself) by freemium to orgs, nonprofits, govts that want faster, private, shared/dedicated access to the same "cloud" capabilities. There was HitmanPro which was good early on, but it didn't seem to be stay anywhere near as comprehensive as virustotal.
