Scam checks for the whole family

Not sure about a message? Ask IGNIS first.

IGNIS checks texts and emails that might be scams, explains them in plain English, and lets your family know. Made for grandparents, parents and kids who are new to phones.

Early preview. Sign-ups are not open yet and nothing is charged. [PLACEHOLDER: launch date and free-trial terms]

Everything your family needs to check first.

A clear answer in seconds

Paste, forward or share a message. IGNIS gives one of three plain answers and what to do next.

“Hi Grandma, it's me. I'm in trouble. Please buy gift cards and send me the codes. Don't tell Mom.”
LIKELY SCAMIt asks for gift card codes. Real people and companies never ask for payment this way.

Private by design

The IGNIS checker runs on your own phone or computer. What you paste is not sent to us.

Heads-ups go both ways

Parents hear about their kids' scam messages, and kids hear about their parents'. You choose who.

Made for kids new to phones

Simple words, one reason at a time, and a big button to show a parent. IGNIS spots free game money, fake prizes and “don't tell your parents” messages.

A parent sets it up and is told when something looks wrong.

Share it, don't copy it

On Android and computers, share any message straight to the IGNIS app. App in testing.

    Your family stays in the loop

    The people you choose get a heads-up when something looks risky, in both directions.

Asking first is always the smart move.

No judgment. No jargon. Just a calm, clear answer, and the people who look out for you in the loop.

Questions families ask

Straight answers about privacy, accuracy and what happens next.

See all questions

Do you access my bank?

No. We never ask for, link to, or see bank accounts, cards or passwords. We only look at messages you choose to send us.

What if the answer is wrong?

It can happen. Our answers are an AI-assisted best read, not a guarantee. That is why every answer includes a safe way to double-check, like calling the company on a number you already trust. When we are unsure, we say so.

Will you ever call my parent?

No. We never make outbound calls. We will never ask for passwords, PINs or Social Security numbers. If “we” ever do, it is a scam.

Will you get money back if someone is scammed?

We cannot recover money, and we do not offer insurance or reimbursement. We will point you to the right next steps, like calling the bank and reporting to the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov and the FBI at ic3.gov.

I think I already sent money or a code. What now?

Call your bank or card company right away, using the number on your card. Tell your family. You can report it at reportfraud.ftc.gov. This is not your fault. These scams fool smart, careful people.

Check first. Feel sure.
