ScamSim: Auto-Generated Fraud Awareness Training

3.00

Derivation Chain

Step 1 Recurring scam patterns targeting tech workers
Step 2 Phishing/fraud awareness training
Step 3 Auto-generated customized internal security training content based on fraud patterns

Problem

When IT security managers prepare quarterly internal phishing training, creating training materials that reflect the latest fraud techniques (deepfake video calls, AI voice impersonation, fake SaaS invoices, etc.) takes 40-80 hours per session. External security training vendors charge $7,500-$22,500/year, which is excessive for companies with fewer than 50 employees.

Solution

Based on a database of real fraud and phishing cases from the past 3 months, the service: (1) auto-generates scenario-based quizzes tailored to the company's industry and size, (2) provides simulated phishing test templates across email, messenger, and voice channels, and (3) automatically produces employee response analysis Reports.

Target: Security managers or founders at IT companies/Startups with 10-100 employees, Freelancer security consultants
Revenue Model: SaaS Monthly Subscription: $44/month (up to 50 employees, 1 training set per quarter) / $97/month (up to 100 employees, monthly training + simulated phishing tests)
Ecosystem Role: Education
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
