Your security stack has a gap
We Fill It.
Spam filters, anti-virus, DNS filtering—they're all doing their jobs. But the email that costs you everything will get past all of them. That's where we come in.
Add the Final LayerYour Security Tools Are Good.
The Attacks Are Better.
You probably have spam filtering. Maybe anti-virus. Possibly DNS protection.
Good.
But here's what those tools are actually checking:
Spam filters
Compare incoming emails against known spam patterns and sender reputations. If the attacker uses a brand-new domain and writes like a human, they get through.
Anti-virus
Scans for known malware signatures. If the attack is credential theft on a fake login page, there's no malware to detect.
DNS filtering
Blocks known bad domains. If the domain was registered yesterday specifically to target you, it's not in any database yet.
Email security gateways
Check sender authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC). But sophisticated attackers pass these checks—or the email comes from a legitimate compromised account.
The result: 52% of AI-generated phishing emails get clicked. Not because people are careless. Because the emails are engineered to pass every automated check and look exactly like the real thing.
The dangerous email doesn't look dangerous. It looks like:
- An invoice from your regular vendor (with new bank details)
- Wire instructions from your title company (slightly different domain)
- A message from your CEO (who's "in a meeting")
- A password reset from Microsoft (that goes to a cloned login page)
By the time it reaches your inbox, it's passed every automated filter. Now it's sitting in front of a real person who has to make a real decision.
That moment—between "this looks real" and "click"—is where attacks succeed.
That's the gap. We fill it.
The Analysis Your Security Stack Can't Do
When you forward an email to ForwardToSafety, we don't just check a few databases and call it done. We conduct a multi-tier investigation that goes far beyond what any automated tool can accomplish.
Multi-Tier AI Analysis
Three layers of AI examine every email:
- Tier 1: Fast triage catches obvious threats instantly
- Tier 2: Deep analysis applies sophisticated pattern recognition
- Tier 3: External verification and active crawling confirm findings
No single point of failure. If one layer misses something, the others are designed to catch it.
We Follow Links to Their Final Destination
Attackers hide behind redirects. Click a "Microsoft" link and you might hop through 5 different domains before landing on a fake login page in Belarus.
We follow every link through ALL redirects to see where you'd actually end up. Your spam filter only sees the first hop.
We Visit and Analyze Landing Pages
Using a headless browser, we actually visit suspicious links and capture screenshots of what you'd see if you clicked. We detect:
- Login forms designed to steal your credentials
- Brand impersonation (fake Microsoft, Google, bank pages)
- Phishing indicators in page content and structure
Your spam filter never visits the page. We do.
We Examine Attachments for Hidden Threats
That innocent-looking Word document or Excel spreadsheet might contain:
- Embedded links that your anti-virus doesn't check
- Macros designed to compromise your system
- QR codes leading to phishing sites
- Hidden URLs in PDF documents
We open attachments safely and analyze their contents.
We Check Threats That Don't Exist in Databases Yet
We integrate with PhishTank, URLhaus, VirusTotal, and Google Safe Browsing in real-time. But here's the thing: the most dangerous attacks use infrastructure that's hours old.
Our AI doesn't just check databases—it analyzes patterns, context, and intent to catch threats that haven't been reported yet.
We Explain in Plain English
Your spam filter either blocks something or doesn't. No explanation.
We tell you exactly why an email is suspicious:
- • "Domain registered 48 hours ago"
- • "Link redirects through 3 servers before landing in Russia"
- • "Sender authentication failed—this isn't really from Chase Bank"
You understand. You learn. You make better decisions.
The Check That Happens When It Matters Most
Your security stack handles the obvious threats automatically. Most spam never reaches your inbox. Most malware gets blocked before execution. Most known-bad domains are filtered before you see them.
That's not the email we're worried about.
We're worried about the email that:
- Passed your spam filter (because it doesn't look like spam)
- Didn't trigger your anti-virus (because there's no attachment, just a link)
- Isn't blocked by DNS filtering (because the domain is 6 hours old)
- Appears to come from someone you trust (because sender info can be forged)
That email is sitting in your inbox right now, looking completely legitimate, waiting for you to click, pay, or reply.
ForwardToSafety is your last line of defense—and your best one.
We're not replacing your security tools. We're adding the layer they're missing: human-in-the-loop verification, powered by multi-tier AI analysis that goes deeper than any automated filter.
Think about it: your spam filter does one thing. Your anti-virus does one thing. Your DNS filter does one thing. We do everything they do—plus link following, landing page analysis, attachment scanning, AI content detection, and brand impersonation detection.
We're last in the chain because we're the most thorough. The final check should be the best check. It is.
When you're not sure, forward it. In 60 seconds, you'll know.

Private AI Analysis for Law Firms, Healthcare & Financial Services
Most email security tools send your data to external cloud AI like ChatGPT or Claude. For regulated entities, that's a compliance violation waiting to happen. We built a solution specifically for you.
Law Firms
ABA Model Rule 1.6 requires reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized disclosure of client information. Sending privileged communications to third-party AI services creates risk.
Our private AI keeps client data in-house.
Healthcare Organizations
HIPAA requires safeguards for protected health information. External AI processing of emails containing PHI may violate the Privacy Rule.
BAA available. PHI never leaves your control.
Financial Services
SEC, FINRA, and fiduciary duty require protection of client financial data. Cloud AI creates audit trail and data residency concerns.
Same thorough analysis, complete data sovereignty.
Your Competitors Can't Use Cloud AI. You Can't Either.
Standard security tools route email content through external AI services. That's fine for most businesses—but not for you. Your ethical obligations, regulatory requirements, and client trust demand more.
We run our own AI infrastructure. No client data sent to OpenAI, Anthropic, or any external provider. Same multi-tier analysis. Same thorough protection. Complete compliance.

Your spam filter let it through. Your anti-virus didn't flag it. Your DNS filter didn't block it. Now what?
