Phixo – AI Phishing Protection for Gmail and Outlook

Hacker News

Hi, I am a Solo developer and I have created a Chrome extension to help prevent email phishing in Gmail and Outlook. This extension tells you why an email has phishing signs and also blocks the phishing URL if it finds something suspicious. I am posting here to get feedback so I can improve my extension further. Although it's still in the early stages, I am improving it with time. If you guys could check it and give me any feedback, that would be very helpful for me. Anything good or bad is welcome. I would also like to hear your thoughts about the idea of creating a phishing protection extension for Outlook and Gmail.
