Truman — Truman

What is Truman Grade?

Truman Grade knows the websites that put your privacy, safety, and money at risk. It checks for threats across the web as you surf, helping you keep you safe and informed.

How does it work?

Using machine learning algorithms, Truman Grade works by scanning websites in real-time for elements of risk, safety, privacy and credibility and then grading the issues we find. Here’s a quick look at these sections:

Risk—Is the site safe for you visit? That is the question that Truman Grade asks every time it sees a new website. Grade checks in real-time for malware, phishing, blacklist, and high spam risks that could put you in danger.

Security—Does a website protect you? Grade looks at the encryption measures and network configurations to help you know if it’s a safe place to share money and personal information.

Privacy—Does a website respect your data? Truman Grade is the first app in the world to use a machine learning algorithm to breakdown privacy policies into an easy-to-consume summary. We empower you with data so that you can make quick decisions about sharing your information.

Visibility—Is this a visible website? An empty restaurant with no one at the cash register is often a tell tale sign that you might want to eat somewhere else. The same is true of websites, but the signs are different. Truman Grade checks for signs of credibility and lets you know if other visitors and search engines trust a given site.


Where does it work?

Truman Grade works on almost any public-facing websites, such as .com, .net, .org, .io and most country tlds.

What are the smart alerts?

Smart alerts are pop-ups that bring attention to potentially high-risk issues that could bring threats your way. Examples of some of these notifications are:
