MANAIA
For elders

Mum and Dad's internet, sorted.
Without taking over.

Romance scams, fake bank logins, phantom MyGov letters, the bloke who phones at dinner pretending to be from Telstra. Manaia blocks the dodgy sites at the DNS layer, alerts you when something looks off, and lets you sort the rough bits from your phone — without taking the keys away.

04 / Sound familiar?

Three things
most households recognise.

/ 01

A link that looks exactly like the bank.

Phishing pages mimic CommBank, ANZ, NAB, Westpac. Manaia catches the dodgy domains before the page ever loads.

/ 02

A new device they don’t remember adding.

Someone joining their Wi-Fi without telling them is worth knowing about. Real-time alerts. To your phone, not theirs.

/ 03

You live two states away.

Manage their protection from your phone. Approve, block, set categories. They keep their independence. You get peace of mind.

04 / What you get

Built for
how you actually use it.

/ 01 · SCAM

Scam sites blocked before they load.

DNS-layer blocking catches the fake bank login, the phantom Australia Post tracking page, the dodgy MyGov clone. They click the link — nothing loads. Quietly handled.

/ 02 · BREACH

Breach alerts in plain English.

If their email shows up in a known data leak, we tell you which leak, what was exposed, and exactly what to do. Not “credentials may have been compromised.” More like “change your Woolies password — here's the link.”

/ 03 · NEW DEVICE

New device alerts.

Add Home Lite for whole-home coverage. Anything that joins their Wi-Fi triggers an alert to your phone. Most are nothing. The one that isn’t will be the one you’re glad you saw.

/ 04 · SIGNALS

Quiet safety signals.

Romance-scam patterns, unusual purchases, repeated calls from numbers that match known scam batches. We surface what looks worth a chat. We don’t read messages or screen calls.

/ 05 · REMOTE

Manage it from your phone.

You’re the trusted contact, not the gatekeeper. Approve, block, change categories, see what’s blocked — from anywhere. They keep using their devices the way they always have.

/ 06 · AUSTRALIAN

Real Australian support.

When something goes wrong — and at some point it will — you talk to a real human in Australia who knows the product. Not a chatbot. Not an offshore script. (Priority support on Guardian Pro.)

/ TESTIMONIAL

Mum clicked a phishing link three days after we set Manaia up. Nothing loaded. She didn't even know what would have happened.

— David T., son of two retirees, Brisbane

04 / Recommended plan

For you,
Duo / Elder Protect.

Duo / Elder Protect is built for setting up protection for one parent (or a couple) without forcing them to use a fancy dashboard. Add Home Lite for whole-home coverage so everything on their Wi-Fi is covered, including the smart TV they barely use and the printer that hasn't been turned off since 2019.
