## What it is

Ivy is an AI-powered security and privacy co-pilot from IronVest that helps people browse, shop, sign up, and manage online risk without exposing their real identity, payment details, phone number, or email address.

## Who it's for

Ivy is for consumers who want practical protection from phishing, scams, suspicious websites, exposed personal information, unwanted tracking, spam, identity theft, and risky online transactions.

## Product positioning

Ivy goes beyond traditional password managers. Password managers store credentials; Ivy helps users detect threats before they act, hide personal information with privacy masks, protect payments with Masked Payments (also called virtual cards), and make safer decisions online.

## Key capabilities

- AI-powered security assistant for suspicious sites, links, messages, and online interactions
- Secure browsing protection, including site risk analysis and website tracking alerts
- Phishing protection for suspicious emails, messages, links, and requests
- Masked email addresses that forward to the user's real inbox while keeping the real email private
- Masked phone numbers for calls, texts, signups, deliveries, marketplaces, and 2FA protection
- Masked Payments — also known as "virtual cards" — that hide the user's real payment card and can be limited, paused, or canceled
- Biometric authentication and cross-device sync
- Breach and risk monitoring
- Privacy-first architecture, including zero-knowledge positioning, encryption, and no data selling

## Plans

Ivy offers two consumer plans: Ivy Free and Ivy Pro. Both plans include the full feature set; only the usage limits differ. Ivy Free is $0 forever and covers core protection with starter limits (5 masked emails, 3 virtual cards). Ivy Pro is $10.99/month (or $99/year) and raises those limits to 500 masked emails and unlimited virtual cards, and adds masked phone numbers with calls and SMS plus priority support. There is no Ivy Ultimate plan.

Note: Product pages should be kept consistent about whether AI phishing protection and family sharing are currently live or coming soon.

## Built by

Ivy is built by IronVest, a privacy and security company focused on helping people protect their identity, accounts, communications, and payments online.
