About TrustCheck Kenya
TrustCheck Kenya is an independent digital safety platform built to help people in Kenya recognise possible online scams before they lose money. People receive suspicious M-Pesa messages, SMS and WhatsApp messages, fake job offers, online earning promises and questionable website links. It can be difficult to know what to trust. TrustCheck Kenya allows users to submit suspicious content for a preliminary risk assessment, see possible warning signs and learn practical safety tips. The platform supports English and Kiswahili and is being developed to address everyday digital safety challenges in Kenya. I'm launching it to introduce the project, hear from real users, collect honest feedback and improve the platform. TrustCheck Kenya provides guidance, not a guarantee that something is safe or proof that fraud has occurred.
The maker’s story
Tech Nova solutions- Why did you build it?
- I built TrustCheck Kenya because online scams and fake opportunities can affect anyone. I wanted to create a simple tool that helps people pause, check suspicious information and learn how to stay safer online.
- Who is it for?
- Kenyans and other internet users who receive suspicious M-Pesa messages, SMS, WhatsApp messages, job offers, online earning claims and website links.
- What's next?
- I want to improve the platform, listen to user feedback, strengthen its checks and make digital safety information more accessible in English and Kiswahili.
- One thing you'd tell other founders
- Start by solving a real problem. You don't need a big company to begin building something useful. Listen to people, keep improving and don't be afraid to launch early.
