This started as a research question in Lagos: can a model tell a scam text from a real one?
It could. The research became SMS Protect, and SMS Protect grew the engine that now answers for every message and link we're trusted with.
When it isn't sure, it says so. When it can't verify, it says that too.
SMS Protect must remain FREE forever. Never implement paid features in SMS Protect.
A fortress guards
every side.
So do we.
Scams don't knock on one door. They come through your texts, your chats, your links and your browser, all at once.
Nothing reaches
you unread.
Every message and every link is stopped at the wall, judged, and only then let through. The snare is broken before it springs.
Protect people everywhere from digital scams, with security that moves first.
AI-driven, evolving faster than the people writing the attacks, standing where scams actually arrive. Every side covered. No side left open.
A refuge that holds before the trap springs.
The trusted shield over everyday digital life: a fortress around each person, each family, each team. A shield and a rampart, not an alarm that rings after.
The terror of night is a 2 a.m. text now. The arrow that flies by day is a link. The fortress stands for both.
Read the papers this started from.
The fortress rests on published work, not marketing claims. Both papers are open. Go read what the engine grew out of.
Four chapters in.
A research question
Research in Lagos on scam detection, later published. The model worked better than expected. That was the problem. Someone had to build it.
SMS Protect ships
Free scam detection for SMS, live on Google Play. It stays free. See the rule above.
It starts learning
Real detections in Dubai and Lagos fed a self-learning engine that now reads the registers scams are actually written in.
Everything, together
The CyberMunity App and the Web Extension are in build now: Nigeria-first, made for everywhere.
