For families who want to help without taking over

A second set of eyes before Mom or Dad sends money.

AI can make a fake call sound like family and a fake message look real. SafeMate gives your parent a plain-English check and a private way to ask you before replying or paying.

Why families are acting now

In 2025, people 60+ reported $7.7B in losses from internet crime.

A story may sound personal and a request may look real. Scams still rely on urgency and isolation. A pause gives your parent time to check the facts and reach you or another trusted contact.

The $7.7B includes all internet-crime categories reported by people 60+, not only AI-enabled scams. These figures reflect complaints reported to IC3; not every scam is reported or includes an age.

Losses by age group

People 60+ reported more losses than any other age group.

Losses reported to the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center in 2025.

These five scam types had the largest reported losses among people 60+.

  • “Don't tell anyone”
  • “Stay on the line”
  • “Move the money to safety”

Did you know?

AI can clone a loved one's voice from a short audio clip and make a fake emergency feel real.

The caller may demand secrecy, create panic, and ask for money before your parent has time to verify the story.

A pause changes that moment: hang up, call back on a number your parent already knows, and ask you or another trusted person before paying. SafeMate gives them one familiar place to do it.

Protection that respects them

A simple first check, with you one tap away

Your parent can understand a suspicious request on their own and reach you when they want a second opinion.

01

Give them somewhere to check first

Your parent can paste a strange text, upload a screenshot, check a link, or describe an urgent call before deciding what to do.

02

Turn uncertainty into a next step

SafeMate explains the risk, points out the warning signs, and suggests what to do next in language your parent can act on.

03

Be there without watching over them

When your parent wants a second opinion, they can send you the message or payment details that matter. You see only what they choose to share.

How it works

One calm check. Three simple steps.

Designed to be easy for your parent to follow, even when a caller sounds familiar and the pressure feels real.

  1. They share what reached them

    Your parent pastes the message, uploads a screenshot, checks the link, or describes the call.

  2. SafeMate explains what looks wrong

    They get a clear risk level, the warning signs SafeMate found, and a practical next step in plain English.

  3. They ask you before acting

    For a risky payment or worrying message, your parent can send you the details and ask for a second opinion.

What your parent sees

Clear enough for a stressful moment

The app keeps the answer simple for your parent and the useful details ready when they ask you to help.

01

Answers that lower the temperature

Every check gives your parent a risk level, the warning signs SafeMate noticed, and a suggested next step. No jargon, panic, or wall of technical detail.

  • Low, medium, and high risk are easy to distinguish
  • Every warning sign is explained in plain English

02

A record you can revisit together

Dates, risk levels, and family reviews stay together in one clear safety log. Your parent can return to it later or use it when speaking with you or their bank.

  • Past checks remain easy for them to find
  • Both of you can see what was shared for review

03

Start with the checks they will use most

The planned Free tier includes message and website checks, so your parent can build the habit of checking. Pro is planned to add phone-call and advertisement checks, plus family reviews before money moves.

  • Free message, email, and link checks are planned
  • The planned Pro tier adds family reviews and chat

For you and your parent

Stay close without taking over

You want to help. Your parent wants to keep their independence. SafeMate gives both of you a calm way to handle the moments when something feels wrong.

For your parent

Confidence before they act

  • Check a suspicious moment on their own
  • Ask for your help with one simple action
  • Choose exactly what they share, every time

For you

A clear way to help

  • Know when your parent asks for a review
  • See the message or payment details that matter
  • Reply with a clear next step, like “Call me first”

SafeMate helps your family slow the moment down. It never moves, holds, or blocks money, and it never gives you control of your parent's account. The decision stays with them.

Privacy comes first

Help without turning care into surveillance

Protecting your parent should not mean reading every message or watching every decision. SafeMate keeps its boundaries clear.

Your parent owns the account

You can help with setup, but the account belongs to your parent. Their consent stays at the center of every family feature.

They choose when to involve you

Nothing comes to you unless your parent shares it or asks for a review. Their privacy settings stay in their hands.

No background monitoring

SafeMate does not read messages, listen to calls, or watch bank accounts in the background. It checks only what your parent chooses to add.

You see only what they share

You can see requested reviews, shared alerts, and the history your parent allows. Nothing more.

Clear account controls are part of the plan

SafeMate is designed to give your parent clear sharing settings and an understandable way to delete their account.

AI guidance has clear limits

SafeMate can point out warning signs, but it cannot guarantee a message or caller is safe. It never replaces a bank or the authorities.

These are the planned app privacy principles. Read the current website privacy notice and terms. An app-specific notice will be published before launch. Questions? Write to support@safemate.app.

Questions from families

What families ask before getting started

When a message looks real or a caller sounds familiar, SafeMate helps your parent check what they received and reach you before money moves. Coming soon to the App Store, iPhone first.
