Hunch

Hunch warns you about scams and phishing in your LinkedIn, Facebook, WhatsApp and Gmail messages. Detection runs on your device.

Most scams don't look like scams. They look like your bank, your boss, or an old friend sending a link. Hunch reads the message you're already looking at and tells you when something is wrong — a fake "verify your account" page, a stranger pressuring you for money, someone asking for the code that just arrived on your phone, or a message pretending to come from a real company. It works inside LinkedIn, Gmail, Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp Web. The warning appears above the message, before you click anything. Hunch works in English, Spanish, Portuguese and Hebrew. The checking happens on your own computer. Your messages are not uploaded, not stored, and not read by anyone. Only two things can ever leave your device: a shortened link, so Hunch can check where it really leads, and — if you ask for a deeper explanation, or turn on the optional AI check — a short excerpt of the message. Nothing is kept afterwards. Install it and it starts working. There is nothing to configure. One honest note: Hunch catches a lot, but not everything. Silence is not a guarantee. If a request feels strange, check it yourself, the slow way.
