Zula shields you from phone scams, phishing messages, and financial fraud with AI-powered protection that works even offline.
Multiple layers of defence — on your calls, messages, social accounts, and beyond.
Real-time colour-coded overlay on every incoming call. Red for known scammers, yellow for suspicious, green for verified financial institutions.
Scans SMS, WhatsApp, and Telegram notifications for phishing links, USSD hijack codes, and social-engineering language using on-device AI — no internet needed.
Detects account takeover phishing across Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Twitter/X, and TikTok. Flags "I saw your photo" lures, suspicious TLDs, and short URL obfuscation in 5 languages — English, Amharic, Tigrinya, Oromo, and Af Somali.
Check any phone number, URL, or USSD code directly in Telegram. Get instant threat classifications, subscribe to daily threat alerts, and report scammers — all from your chat without opening the app.
Detects and blocks malicious USSD sequences embedded in messages — the codes scammers use to silently transfer money from your mobile wallet without your knowledge.
Report scam numbers and messages with one tap. Reports are SHA-256 hashed and Laplace-noised before transmission — your identity is never exposed.
SHA-256 hashing and differential privacy (Laplace noise) ensure your reports can never be traced back to you. Zero personal data stored on our servers.
Threat database syncs every 6 hours with Ed25519-signed delta updates — aggregating MISP feeds, NBE data, and community reports. Works offline between syncs.
Manually check any phone number before calling back. Instantly see if it's a known scammer, verified institution, or unknown — directly from the app home screen.
Simple setup, powerful protection running silently in the background.
Download Zula and grant call screening and notification access. The app downloads the latest threat database automatically.
Zula runs in the background, screening every incoming call and scanning message notifications in real time using on-device AI.
When a threat is detected, you see an instant colour-coded overlay or notification — no guesswork, just clear guidance.
Encountered a scam? Report it with one tap. Your privacy-preserved report helps protect the entire community.
Zula was built from the ground up with privacy as a core principle, not an afterthought.
All NLP analysis happens locally. Your messages never leave your phone.
Phone numbers and message content are hashed before transmission. We never see the originals.
Laplace noise is added to timestamps so reports cannot be correlated to specific events.
Request complete deletion of any data associated with your device at any time.
Threat database updates are cryptographically signed — no one can tamper with them in transit.
Choose the plan that fits your needs. All plans include core fraud protection.

Fighting financial fraud in Ethiopia with technology and community.
Phone-based financial fraud is a growing crisis in Ethiopia. Millions of people lose their hard-earned money to sophisticated scammers who impersonate banks, telecom operators, and government agencies. Existing solutions are either too expensive, require constant internet, or don't understand the local threat landscape.
Zula was created to change that. By combining on-device AI, community intelligence, and privacy-preserving technology, we provide world-class fraud protection that works for everyone — regardless of connectivity or technical expertise.
