## What is Phishy?

Phishy — scam and phishing protection for the whole family

Got a text from your "bank"? A "package waiting" notice? A WhatsApp "you won" message or an email from the "tax office"? Before you tap — let Phishy check it. Paste or share the message and know in seconds whether it's dangerous.

Scams and phishing target everyone — young and old. Phishy gives everyone in the family, from grandparents to kids, one simple confidence: know if a message is dangerous before you click.

Family Mode — what sets Phishy apart:
Connect your older parents and your kids, and get an alert the moment a scam reaches them — no tech skills needed on their side, and you never see their messages.

What Phishy checks:
• Links and URLs — fake banking sites, spoofed domains, newly registered traps
• SMS and WhatsApp messages — common scam and smishing patterns
• Emails and suspicious phone numbers

9 security and AI engines in parallel:
Phishy runs 9 independent systems at once — Claude AI, Google Safe Browsing, VirusTotal, PhishTank and URLScan — and returns one clear safety score (100 = safe, 0 = dangerous) with plain advice on what to do.

Why Phishy:
• Large text, simple language, clear interface — easy at any age
• Hebrew, Russian, English, Arabic, Portuguese, and Spanish
• No registration, no personal data stored
• Completely free — no ads, no subscription

How it works:
1. Paste or share the suspicious message or link
2. Phishy checks it across 9 engines in parallel
3. Get a safety score and a clear explanation of what to do

Phishy does not store your messages on servers. Analysis is sent encrypted and returned instantly.

Phishy is an assistive tool, not a substitute for your own judgment, and it may be wrong. Its results are a recommendation only — the responsibility for opening any link or acting on any message rests solely with you.

Download Phishy and protect yourself and your family.
