Our story
We are on a mission to protect everyone from cyber harm.
Between us, we've spent 30 years fighting fraud and protecting users at Google, the US Secret Service, and beyond. We've seen firsthand that even the biggest platforms can't stop every scam. And when people do get scammed, law enforcement is overwhelmed and often can't help. Victims are left on their own.
Jacana was founded to change that. We're building AI-powered protection that combines prevention and recovery, because nobody should face scams alone.
Our mission drives everything we do. We're committed to protecting everyone from the growing threat of cybercrime. That means your parents, grandparents, friends, and family. We're building technology that actually protects all of us.
We're a public benefit corporation
Our mission is written into our corporate charter: “to mitigate cyber harm and its impact for individuals and society.” Unlike traditional corporations, which are obligated to put shareholder returns first, we’re a public benefit corporation, legally bound to pursue our mission as we build our business.
