Ambient Trust Infrastructure

Protection
that works
before you click.

suss. is the trust layer for institutions that care about the people they serve. We embed scam detection directly where their members, students, and customers live their digital lives.

$190B+
estimated annual losses. $12.8B reported. Most never do.

Fraud didn't get smarter.
It got more personal.

AI-generated scams now mirror the voice, style, and urgency of real relationships. Traditional fraud tools were built for transactions. Not conversations. Not DMs. Not marketplace listings. Not the human moments where trust gets exploited.

Adults 55+ lose 3x more per scam incident than younger demographics. The tools that exist weren't built for them. suss. was.

Built to
disappear.

suss. works where your members already are. Browser, mobile, API. Ambient by design. You never have to think about it.
