ScamVerify is an AI powered threat intelligence platform that helps consumers verify phone numbers, websites, text messages, and emails for scam risk.
Every lookup cross-references multiple data sources and delivers an AI synthesized risk assessment with a 0-100 risk score and plain English verdict.
Data Sources - FTC Do Not Call Registry (2.4M+ complaint records) - FCC Consumer Complaints (443K+ records) - Telecom carrier forensics (line type, caller name, carrier risk) - Malware threat feeds (URLhaus, ThreatFox covering 50,000+ malicious domains) - Robocall detection systems - Community reports from verified users
Free tier includes complimentary lookups with full risk scores and verdicts. Paid plans ($4.99 to $24.99/mo) unlock additional lookups, detailed FTC/FCC complaint history, carrier forensics, AI narrative analysis, and downloadable PDF reports.
Founded in 2026 by a technology executive with 25 years of enterprise platform experience and a background in fraud detection systems at scale.
Allociao is a free Android app that automatically blocks telemarketing calls, robocalls, and phone scams, with no subscription or ads required for the core protection.
Instead of relying on a single crowdsourced blocklist, Allociao combines two data sources: official phone numbering data published by telecom regulators (covering 200+ countries, including satellite and premium-rate prefixes commonly used in wangiri scams) and real-time reports from the Allociao community. Calls from known contacts always ring through, the app never screens people already in your address book.
Beyond call blocking, Allociao includes SMS Guard, an on-device smishing detector that flags suspicious text messages, such as fake delivery notices, fake tax refunds, or bank phishing, using multilingual keyword and pattern analysis, without sending your messages to any server.
For families, Allociao+ (an optional premium tier) extends protection to relatives: a shared blocklist, a family dashboard showing which calls and texts were blocked for each member, and an AI-enhanced detection layer (on-device models) for both calls and SMS that catches more subtle scam patterns, including social-engineering messages with no link, like a stranger pretending to be family with "I changed my number."
Allociao asks for the minimum permissions necessary, avoids restricted Android permissions where possible, and does not require an account to use the free tier. The app is available in 72 languages and covers phone numbering data for 200+ countries.

ScamVerify's answer
ScamVerify is the only platform that combines FTC complaint data, FCC consumer complaints, telecom carrier forensics, malware threat feeds, and community reports into a single AI-synthesized risk assessment. Instead of just checking a phone number against one database, it cross-references multiple federal and industry sources and delivers a plain English verdict that anyone can understand.
Allociao's answer:
Allociao combines two data sources instead of relying on one: official phone numbering data published by telecom regulators (200+ countries) and real-time community reports. It also detects wangiri/satellite scam prefixes that most call blockers miss, includes an on-device SMS phishing detector (SMS Guard), and its premium tier extends protection to family members with AI-based cross-signal detection between calls and texts. The free tier requires no account and no ads.
ScamVerify's answer
Most competitors focus on a single channel like phone calls or websites. ScamVerify covers phone numbers, websites, text messages, and emails in one platform. The free lookup gives you a real risk score and verdict, not just a teaser to upsell you. The AI analysis explains why something is risky in plain language, not just a number or color code.

ScamVerify's answer
ScamVerify was born from personal experience. The founder was first scammed as a college student when he tried to buy a laptop on Craigslist and the seller disappeared with his payment. Years later, his mother received a call from someone impersonating her cousin using AI voice cloning. That was the tipping point. With 25 years of experience building enterprise platforms and a background in fraud detection at Tagged, Myspace, ADP, and Hyland Software, he built ScamVerify to give consumers real tools to fight back, not black boxes with unexplained trust scores, but clear verdicts backed by government data and hard evidence.
Allociao's answer:
Allociao was built by a solo developer frustrated with spam calls and unsatisfied with existing call-blocker apps that ask for heavy permissions or upload your address book. The goal was a privacy-respecting alternative that still works well, using public regulator data and community reports instead of harvesting user contacts.
