Paste a text, email, or chat. Vigil flags payment pressure, phishing patterns, and what to do next.

  • Marketplace “pay outside the app” traps
  • Delivery / bank / IRS-style urgency
  • Suspicious links before you tap

  • Step-by-step plan you can follow
  • Remove any attachment before you run

  • Stock / glam model shots
  • Same-person consistency across the set

  • Deepfake / mismatch risk scores
  • Wire-fund pressure cues
  • Screen recordings from chats or calls

Audio & voicemail

Voicemails and voice notes that sound official. Vigil checks scam pressure and synthetic-voice signals.

Live calls

On speakerphone, Vigil listens for classic scam phrases while you’re still on the call — so you can hang up sooner.

  • Live phrase awareness
  • Pressure tactics mid-call
  • Stay present without guessing alone

Dating coach

Romance scams move off-app fast. Vigil helps you slow down, ask better questions, and check what feels off.

  • Consult Vigil on matches
  • Off-app chat pressure
  • Photo checks from the dating flow

Vault — memory on your phone

Your history stays on device. When the same number, email, or handle repeats, Vigil can connect the dots.

  • On-device scan history
  • Linked contacts across checks
  • Your second opinion, over time

Profile photo check

Do these photos look like one real person?

Watch a sample check: AI face, stock/glam look, same-person signal — then a plain-language verdict.

Example glam portrait
Example outdoor portrait
Example casual selfie
  • Likely AI-generated face 87
  • Stock / glam model shot 74
