A SECOND OPINION BEFORE YOU ACT

Before you act,
take a pause.

Check a message, screenshot, or link. See what stands out, then decide your next move with a little more clarity.

WHAT PAUSE CAN DO

More than a yes or no.

Get a clearer picture of the message, the link, and the next safe step.

01

Check messages

Paste an SMS, chat, email, or link. Pattern checks and Groq AI, when enabled, can help identify suspicious language.

02

Inspect screenshots & QR codes

Upload a screenshot for analysis. Pause also detects QR code links in the image and includes them in the check.

03

Investigate links

Inspect redirects and domain registration age. Google Safe Browsing can be enabled as an additional check.

04

Use your language

Choose English, Hindi, or Tamil results, then use your browser’s built-in read-aloud voice.

Pause combines message patterns, link signals, and AI when configured. Its score is a signal indicator, not a probability. When enabled, message text and screenshots are sent to Groq; shared links omit the original message.
A SIMPLE WAY TO PAUSE

Check. Understand.
Choose what to do.

Pause gives you a second opinion. When something could put your money or accounts at risk, verify it through an official app or phone number.

1

Share what you received

Paste the message or add a screenshot. QR codes in the image are checked too.

2

See the warning signs

Review the verdict, reasons, and any link evidence Pause could find.

3

Decide your next step

Use the suggested actions, or contact the organization through its official channel.

A helper, not a guarantee.

Scams change quickly. Pause can miss a scam or flag a genuine message. Never share passwords, PINs, or one-time codes here.
