infrared excesses for planet-hosting stars

Gaby Contardo (Flatiron) and I went to the Gaia EDR3 Archive to make use of its matched catalogs, matching up Gaia, 2MASS, and WISE. We are looking at very short-period planet hosts, which might show interesting photometric deviations. We took one host star, and then found many other stars with similar photometry in the visible. Do they agree in the infrared? It looks like maybe there is a tiny discrepancy? But the power will come from doing many, not just one.
