Email and Text as a New (Old) UI
Why did we decide to build Safe Horizon with an experience that doesn’t require you to log in to a website or install another app? It’s simple: We wanted Safe Horizon to be as seamless and natural to use as possible.
Today, people are bombarded with messages — texts, emails, notifications — many of which demand immediate action. Scammers know this all too well. They create a sense of urgency, pressuring you to act fast with messages that suggest some dire consequence if you don’t respond immediately. Unfortunately, when it comes to these scam messages, “doing something” is often the wrong move.
This is why we designed Safe Horizon to fit right into the tools you’re already using — email and text. If you receive a message that seems suspicious, you can instantly forward it to Safe Horizon without needing to switch devices, open a new app, or remember another login. By making it this easy, we give you a clear action to take right where you are, letting you feel proactive and protected without unnecessary steps.
The second reason we chose this approach? You already have enough logins to remember. Even people who use password managers still have to interact with those tools, filling out login details and navigating extra steps to access new sites or apps. Adding another login would only complicate things, creating one more barrier when the goal is to keep you safe in real time.
Lastly, thanks to the power of AI, Safe Horizon’s email and text-based UI doesn’t compromise functionality. The AI we’ve built can handle natural, straightforward interactions, so there’s no need to learn a new site or interface. Everything is designed to be as simple and accessible as possible, so you can get the guidance you need and get on with your day, fully protected.
