Before we ask for anything
This is exactly how it works on WhatsApp. Pick an answer, say how sure you are, take a hint if you need one. Get it right and Debbie asks you why. No sign-up needed to play.
A SACCO clerk gets an SMS: “M-Pesa refund pending, confirm your PIN here.” What’s the strongest red flag?
How sure are you?
Why it works
Where it leads
The defender only you can be
Our goal is to journey with you until you are the most valuable cyber defender a business can have: so good, and so close to the business, that only you can do what you do.
Why it sticks
Hints, never answers
Students who were handed answers by an AI did 17% worse in exams; a tutor that gave only hints removed that harm (Bastani et al., PNAS 2025). So Debbie hints, asks how sure you are, and makes you explain.
How fast
Your first drill in minutes
Register, tap one button, press Send. You're paired, Debbie says hello, and your first drill is one reply away. Not next week. This morning.
How much effort
Fits in a matatu ride
No app to install, no laptop, no data-heavy videos. Five minutes on the WhatsApp you already use, on any phone.
A drill every morning
A short cyber drill lands at sunrise, so you practise even on your busiest days.
Hints, never answers
Stuck? Reply hint. You get a nudge, not the answer, so the skill ends up yours.
How sure are you?
Answer with your confidence, like B 3. Learn the gap between feeling sure and knowing.
Explain it back
Got it right? Tell Debbie why. Explaining it is what makes it stick.
Think like the business
Every skill tied to the business you protect: its money, its people, its real risk.
A coach who knows you
Debbie knows your track, your progress and your next step. Ask her anything, anytime.

150 tester seats
Testers get the full Pocket Buddy free until 31 October. We set up your OCH account for you; one tap on WhatsApp and Debbie says hello. In return, tell her what's confusing or broken.
Happening now
No. Everything happens in WhatsApp on any phone. The web app is there if you want it, not required.
No. Nothing renews automatically. If you want to keep Debbie after 31 October, you reply PAY and confirm an M-Pesa prompt yourself. If you don't, nothing happens.
Yes. Register with the same email. We'll send the one-tap WhatsApp link to that inbox, so only you can pair your account.
Use it most mornings until 31 October and tell Debbie when something is confusing or broken. That feedback shapes what the Founding 500 get.
Only OCH, to run your coach. We never share it or show it on this page; the live activity shows only role and institution.
