Developed by PayGlocal's engineering team, Zeroin is a Secure Accessible Cyber Safety Assistant tailored specifically for senior citizens. The solution leverages advanced AI models and cryptographic techniques to prevent monetary and identity fraud, ensuring that seniors can navigate the digital world securely.

This innovative solution exemplifies PayGlocal's commitment to digital inclusivity, making the digital landscape safer and more accessible for all.
Zeroin's technology-driven design is centered around providing robust security through real-time fraud detection and prevention.
