Leading the charge: Gogolook's Whoscall transforms communication security

Gogolook, a global technology company from Taiwan, is at the forefront of enhancing communication security through its innovative products. The company has made significant strides with its flagship product, Whoscall, an app designed to identify unknown callers and block spam calls.

Gogolook focuses on creating a safer communication environment by utilizing big data and machine learning technologies. The company's expertise in data analysis and the development of user-friendly applications has positioned it as a leader in addressing modern communication challenges. With a strong presence in multiple countries, Gogolook emphasizes user privacy and security.

Launched in 2013, Whoscall is Gogolook's most popular application. It offers robust features designed to identify unknown callers and filter out unwanted calls, making it a vital tool for millions of users worldwide. Key functionalities include:

Caller Identification:  Whoscall provides real-time identification of incoming calls by cross-referencing its extensive database, helping users decide whether to answer or ignore a call.

Spam Call Blocking:  The app effectively blocks spam, scam, and telemarketing calls, offering users a hassle-free communication experience. Whoscall's continuously updated database ensures maximum protection against new threats.

Number Search:  Users can manually search unknown numbers within the app to gain insights into potential callers, which is useful for identifying missed calls from unknown numbers.

Community-Based Reporting:  Whoscall leverages user contributions to maintain an up-to-date database, enhancing the app's ability to protect its community from emerging threats.

Offline Database:  Unlike many other caller ID apps, Whoscall offers an offline database feature. This feature enables users to identify callers without an active internet connection, which is particularly useful in areas with limited connectivity.

Whoscall has received widespread recognition and numerous awards for its contribution to communication safety. Its effectiveness in reducing spam calls and user-friendly interface has made it a preferred choice for individuals and businesses. Gogolook's commitment to innovation and user privacy has earned the company a loyal user base and partnerships with major telecom operators worldwide.

Gogolook continues to innovate, exploring new ways to enhance Whoscall and expand its product lineup. The company is focused on integrating artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve the accuracy and efficiency of its services. Additionally, Gogolook is exploring opportunities to address other communication-related challenges, such as SMS spam and online fraud.

Gogolook recently supported Scam Watch Pilipinas in launching a volunteer watcher program at the Polytechnic University of the Philippines-Manila (PUP-Manila). Mel Migriño, Gogolook's Southeast Asia Regional Director, highlighted the initiative's alignment with Whoscall's mission to combat online scams, such as SMS scams and phishing.

The program educates students and families on digital safety, aiming to have at least one informed family member to protect against scams. Whoscall, an anti-scam app by Gogolook, uses AI to identify unknown calls and filter spam. Over 120 journalism students attended the launch, where Migriño detailed common scam tactics and risks in the Philippines.

Jocel De Guzman, Co-founder of Scam Watch Pilipinas, praised Gogolook's support, emphasizing their shared goal of fighting online scams. Representatives from the Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center (CICC) and the Journalism Studies Association of the Philippines (JSAP) also attended.
