Network Immunity

An Immune System
for the Internet.

When a biological cell defeats a virus, the whole body remembers. GatherGuard works the same way: identify a threat in one community, and block it in 10,000 others instantly.

  • 1
    Threat Detected A bad actor is permanently banned in Community A (e.g., a Church app) for harassment.
  • 2
    Instant Federation Their identifier is hashed (anonymized) and added to the Global Blocklist automatically via database triggers.
  • 3
    Community Immunity When that same user attempts to join Community B (e.g., a Youth Group), they are flagged instantly. Zero damage done.

Purpose-Built Protocols

Generic safety tools fail in high-stakes groups. Select a protocol designed for Homeschool Co-ops, Recovery Groups, and Faith Communities.

PROTOCOL: MATTHEW_18

Restorative Justice

Don't just ban. Restore. Our API generates automated "Restoration Plans" with task tracking.

Automated Grace
Auto-expire bans upon completing counseling tasks.
Elder Oversight
Require high-trust vouches for re-entry.
PROTOCOL: SANCTUARY

The Persecuted Church

Connect believers without exposing their physical location to bad actors.

Dynamic Geo-Fuzzing
Strangers see a 10km radius. Friends see exact location.
Velocity Checks
Flag "wolves" trying to gain trust too quickly.
PROTOCOL: SHEPHERD

Spiritual Safety

Standard AI catches swear words. Ours catches grooming and spiritual abuse.

Contextual NLP
Detects coercion like "God told me you must..."
Developer Experience

Built for Developers who Ship

We handled the boring, hard infrastructure so you don't have to.

Identity-Scoped

Requests are signed by User Session. No shared API keys in the browser.

Anti-Vouch Rings

PageRank algorithm prevents bad actors from vouching for each other.

50ms P95

Edge-deployed on Supabase. Global low latency.

Theological NLP

Vector embeddings detect spiritual coercion and grooming language.

npm install @gatherguard/sdk
import { GatherGuard } from '@gatherguard/sdk'
const guard = new GatherGuard('your_api_key')
// Check trust score in one line
const { score, risk } = await guard.checkUser('user_123')

RESTful API. PostgreSQL-Backed. Type-Safe.

Check trust scores, moderate content, and trigger webhooks. All calculated server-side with ACID guarantees.

// Example: Verifying a Youth Ministry Volunteer

const response = await fetch('https://api.gatherguard.org/trust-score', {
  method: 'POST',
  // ... headers ...
  body: JSON.stringify({
    userId: 'volunteer_88',
    context: 'youth_ministry_application' 
  })
});

const { trustScore, globalRisk } = await response.json();

// 1. Check Global Safety Net (Shared Blocklist)
if (globalRisk === 'critical') {
  await adminAlert('High risk volunteer attempted registration');
  return denyAccess(); 
} 

// 2. Check Community Standing (Attendance + Vouches)
if (trustScore > 80) {
  // User has attended 10+ services and is vouched for
  await approveVolunteerBadge();
}
