Protect the people you love from porn — with AI screen accountability
98% of males and 73% of females have viewed porn in the last six months — some starting as early as age five. (psychologytoday.com) Vigilant watches the screen so you don’t have to — and tells someone you trust the moment it matters.

The difference
The only iOS app that can monitor in-app content — social media included — and block it right then and there
Web filters only see the web. They're blind to what happens inside apps. Vigilant reads the screen itself, so nothing slips through — and on iOS the urge is stopped before it grows.
How it works · iPhone & iPad
Accountability that lives where the temptation does
Choose what to watch
Pick the apps that need monitoring — browsers, social media, anywhere explicit content can hide inside the app itself.
AI reviews the screen
Every 20, 30, or 60 seconds — your choice — Vigilant analyzes what's actually on screen in real time, not what a web filter thinks it sees.
Block it on the spot
A concerning detection can close the offending app right then and there, stopping the urge before it grows.
Your partner is told
A blurred, text-redacted capture is uploaded and your accountability partner is notified the moment it matters.
How it works · Mac & Windows
Scans the screen. Blurs everything. Tells someone you trust.
Vigilant periodically captures the screen and analyzes it for explicit content. When something is found, a blurred, text-redacted version is sent to your accountability partner — along with about 30 seconds of follow-up activity, so they have context instead of one confusing frame.
Real-time AI analysis
The screen is scanned on your schedule and flagged content triggers action right then — not buried in a weekly report.
Privacy by design
Captures are blurred and text-redacted locally, on the device, before anything is uploaded. Nothing readable ever leaves the machine.
Context, not just a snapshot
Desktop detections send a blurred capture plus roughly 30 seconds of follow-up activity, so a partner sees what happened — not one ambiguous frame.
Facial recognition
Optionally identify which family member was at the screen when something was detected, so alerts point to the right person.
Delete prevention
Removing Vigilant takes a separate uninstaller and the admin password — no quiet, late-night uninstalls.
Accountability beats blocking
Blockers get bypassed. Knowing someone you trust will see it changes the decision in the moment — and that habit lasts.
For people quitting · The urge toolkit
Monitoring catches the slip. This stops it.
An urge isn't a character flaw — it's a wave. Log it the second it hits, tag what set it off, and Vigilant hands you advice built for that exact trigger. Because when you can name it, you can ride it out.
Tag what triggered it:
- Tired
- Bored
- Stressed
- Overstimulated
- Hungry
- Lonely
- Aimless scrolling
90–120 sec
An urge peaks and fades in about 90–120 seconds. Vigilant keeps that in front of you — ride the wave, and it passes. Streak tracking shows you every day you already have.
The partner dashboard
Everything a partner needs.
Nothing they shouldn't see.
- Content classification with a confidence score on every event
- Device, username, and timestamp for full context
- Facial-recognition result when it's enabled
- ~30 seconds of post-detection activity, not one frame
- Every image blurred and text-redacted before it's uploaded
Nip it in the bud.
Pornography can be more addictive than street drugs — easier to get, and less frowned upon. Accountability dramatically lowers the chance of addiction taking root, for you or for someone you love.
