The gap
Kids need practice before the stakes are real.
SysMom gives families a controlled way to rehearse phishing links, impersonation, urgency pressure, and private information asks. The child learns to pause, report, or ask for help while the parent sees exactly what happened.
How it works
A small practice loop families can repeat.
Child pauses or reports
The child can ignore it, ask a parent, reply, or forward it to Looks Phishy — the family's shared “report it here” contact for anything that feels off.
Parent reviews and coaches
The app shows the message, response, safety assessment, expected action, and a simple talking point for follow-up.
Why it works
Practice pays off twice.
For parents
You approve every drill before it sends and see every response after it lands. Follow-up comes with a plain-language talking point, so it's a two-minute chat — not a lecture. Instead of wondering whether the safety talk stuck, you watch judgment improve drill by drill.
- Nothing sends without your approval.
- Alerts when a response deserves a follow-up.
- Progress you can see, not guess at.
For kids
Kids know they're training — SysMom is a drill, not a trap. They get safe reps at spotting urgency pressure, fake links, and impersonation, plus one clear move when something feels off: forward it to Looks Phishy. Catching one feels like a win, not a test they failed.
- Practice that feels like a skill, not a gotcha.
- One simple move to make: report it.
- Confidence that carries into real messages.
Hey, it's Sarah — new number 🙂 What's your address again?

Parent app
The review queue becomes the lesson plan.
Every message lands in a parent-visible timeline with child context, current focus, training status, and next scheduled messages. Controls stay per-child so a starter reader and a more independent preteen can move at different speeds.
- Message history with channel, tactic, reply, and review state.
- Child profiles with age range, ability level, consent, and inbox.
- Scenario scope, quiet days, alerts, and hold-until-reviewed controls.
Intro video
See a full drill in under a minute.
One complete practice loop — from parent approval to the child spotting the clues and reporting it, to the progress you see afterward.
Trust posture
Built around consent, control, and visibility.
Parent-approved launch
Training starts only after the parent has reviewed contact details, where messages go, and each child's consent.
Age-aware difficulty
Starter, guided, and independent modes keep scenarios aligned with each child's readiness.
Controlled channels
SMS and email are separated from future social DM channels so families can expand deliberately.
Review before momentum
Hold-until-reviewed and immediate alert settings help families slow down after risky responses.
Questions parents ask
A drill, not a trick.
Does my kid know it's practice?
Yes — kids are in on it from day one, and their consent is part of setup. They know drills will arrive; they just don't know which message is one. The goal is a shared skill the whole family builds, not surveillance.
What exactly does SysMom send?
Realistic but harmless practice texts and emails modeled on the tactics kids actually see: impersonation (“Hey, it's Sarah — new number”), urgency pressure, too-good prize links, and requests for private information. Every message is approved by you before it sends, and nothing links anywhere harmful.
What is “Looks Phishy”?
The family's shared reporting contact. When any message feels off — drill or real — kids forward it to Looks Phishy. Reporting a real scam counts just as much as catching a drill, and every report shows up in the parent app.
What ages is this for?
Any kid old enough to have their own phone number or inbox. Each child gets their own starter, guided, or independent difficulty, so a new phone owner and a more independent teen can train at different speeds.
What do you collect about my child?
On this page, nothing — early access only asks for your email or mobile number. Inside the app, we collect only what's needed to run the drills you approve, and you can see all of it.
