Jortty Launches Nationwide to Combat $28 Billion Senior Scam Crisis

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - EntSun -- As online scams surge and AI reshapes daily life, millions of older adults are being left vulnerable. Jortty, a new AI-powered platform, is launching nationwide to address one of the fastest-growing crises: elder fraud, now exceeding $28 billion annually.

Founded by tech expert Julius McGee and former Twitter engineer Bobby Dorlus, Jortty was built with a singular mission — protect and empower users who have been overlooked in the digital age.

The idea was sparked by a real-life incident in which a longtime client was manipulated into sending $49,000 in cash to a scammer.

"Most people called it foolish. I understood exactly how it happened," said McGee. "And I knew we had to build something that could stop it before it ever got that far."

A NEW KIND OF AI — BUILT FOR REAL LIFE
Jortty combines:

• real-time scam detection
• AI-powered tech support
• digital literacy tools
• and human-centered design

Unlike traditional cybersecurity tools, Jortty is designed specifically for everyday users — especially seniors — who need clarity, not complexity.
