Helping Aged Parents Simply

Call screening for loved ones —
only trusted callers reach your parent.

HAPS screens every call and text to your parent, grandparent, or loved one's phone — built to protect your parent from phone scams before they ever pick up. The people they know and trust ring straight through. Unknown callers reach you first — before a scammer ever gets the chance to say hello.

No app for your parent to learn. Their phone, their number, nothing changes for them — just quiet elder fraud protection running in the background.

Your parent's phone never even rings. You decide who gets through.

911 always connects Emergency calls bypass screening. Always.
If HAPS goes down, calls still work The failure mode is always "the phone works."
We never record conversations Only voicemails from unknown callers, with disclosure.
30-day money-back guarantee Love it or get every dollar back.

“My mom was 85, on a fixed income, and scammers targeted her relentlessly. When I looked for a way to protect her, I found nothing that worked unless I was sitting right next to her. So we built it.”

Scammers only need one phone call to take a life's savings. HAPS makes sure that call reaches you instead.

How it works

Three steps. Zero effort for your parent.

HAPS works at the phone line level, delivering real scam call protection for elderly parents without asking them to change a thing. There's nothing for your parent to install, learn, or remember — their phone simply stops being reachable by strangers.

STEP 1

Build the trusted list

Together with your parent, you choose who can always reach them — family, friends, doctors, the pharmacy. Their real relationships, saved once.

STEP 2

HAPS screens calls and texts

Trusted contacts connect instantly, no delay, no menu, no difference at all. Unknown callers hear one sentence saying they are being directed to the family admin. Unknown texts forward to you with the sender's number attached.

STEP 3

You answer for them

The call rings your phone, plain and simple. Pick up and you're instantly talking to them. Miss it, and it goes to a recorded voicemail you can review anytime — block the number from your dashboard if you need to.

Why families choose HAPS

The moment your grandma stops answering scam calls is the moment you can finally stop worrying about her.

Scammers steal $7.7 billion from Americans over 60 every year. Every phone call your loved one answers is one where their savings could disappear in ten minutes. HAPS is the layer that makes sure the call never reaches them in the first place — while every real relationship in their life stays exactly the way it was.

Everything included

Small details, because the stakes aren't small

Instant trusted calling

Allowlisted callers connect with zero delay and zero announcement. To Grandma, nothing has changed.

Texts screened too

Scammers do not just call. Unknown text messages route to you first, so a fake bank alert or fraudulent link never lands on your parent's screen.

Caller whisper briefing

Every screened call opens with a short spoken whisper naming who's calling and their number, so you know exactly what's happening before you answer.

One tap approvals

New doctor's office? Approve the number once from the dashboard and it rings through forever after.

Repeat caller defense

A number that keeps hammering the line gets sent straight to voicemail automatically. Robocalls burn themselves out.

Family call log

Every screened call, voicemail, and blocked number in one clean dashboard — so the whole family can see what HAPS caught.

Alex Spiekerman

Founder, HAPS

My mission to protect our most vulnerable population started with my own mom. At 85 years old and on a fixed income, she was targeted relentlessly by phone scammers telling her she owed money or that her bank account was compromised. Like any daughter, I had had enough. But when I looked for help, I realized there was no way to protect her from those predatory calls unless I was physically sitting next to her.

That frustration sparked an idea: adult children need a way to act as a digital admin for their parents, buffering harmful calls from anywhere in the world. Today, HAPS delivers elite security, safety, and financial shielding to seniors — empowering families to protect their aging parents from fraud, no matter the distance.

Built by a daughter who refused to accept that distance meant vulnerability.

Co-Founder & CEO, HAPS

Hi, I'm Cody Zippe. I started HAPS after my grandmother nearly lost her savings to someone pretending to be her bank. She was alone, the call sounded completely real, and she had no idea until it was almost too late. That experience made me realize how badly a real solution was needed.

Today, HAPS gives adult children the power to stand between their aging parents and the people trying to take advantage of them, from anywhere in the world.

Questions families ask

Honest answers, before you commit

Does my parent have to learn a new app or phone?

No. HAPS works at the phone line level. Your parent keeps their phone, their number, and their habits. The only thing that changes is that strangers can no longer reach them directly.

Does HAPS work for texts too, or just calls?

Both. Text messages from unknown numbers forward to you instead of your loved one, with the sender's number and the full message so you can review before deciding what to do. Trusted contacts still text your loved one directly, no delay. This is important because scam texts (fake bank alerts, package delivery scams, and phishing links) are just as dangerous as calls.

What if there's an emergency and I don't pick up?

911 and public safety numbers always connect directly to your parent, no screening ever. For everything else, you can add backup admins — a sibling, a spouse — who get the call if you can't answer. Unanswered calls go to a reviewed voicemail, never into a void.

Is HAPS listening to our calls?

Never. HAPS does not record or listen to any live conversation. Only voicemails left by unknown callers are saved, with a spoken disclosure, so you can review what a caller wanted.

What if your service goes down?

Every HAPS line has a built in failsafe: if our system is ever unreachable, calls connect directly through, exactly as if HAPS wasn't there. The one thing that can never break is your parent's phone.

Will this work with my parent's phone carrier?

Yes, on every major US carrier including AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, and most prepaid providers. Activation is a single dial code on your parent's phone that takes about ten seconds. Your dashboard shows the exact steps for your carrier, and we will walk you through it on the phone if you would rather not do it alone.

What happens if my parent's doctor or pharmacy calls from a new unlisted number?

The call routes to you first. You can answer, verify it's a legitimate call, and approve the number in your dashboard with one tap so that next time it rings your parent's phone directly. Legitimate callers never get permanently blocked.

Does my parent still get their own voicemail?

Yes. Trusted callers who don't reach your parent still leave a message on their normal voicemail exactly as before. Only unknown callers are routed through HAPS, and those voicemails appear in your dashboard for you to review.

How do I cancel, and how fast does it take effect?

You can cancel any time directly from your dashboard, no phone call required and no cancellation fee. Protection stops at the end of your current billing period. If you're within your first 30 days, we refund you in full, no questions asked. If you're protecting more than one parent, each subscription cancels independently.

What if my parent doesn't want this? How do I bring it up?

This is the most common question we get, and it matters. The framing that works best: HAPS doesn't take anything away from them. Their phone, their number, and everyone they actually know stays exactly the same. The only thing that changes is that strangers can't get through. Most parents are relieved once they understand it isn't about control, it's about the calls they didn't want in the first place. We're happy to get on the phone with both of you and explain it together if that would help.

What families are saying

Real families. Real protection.

Hear from the people HAPS was built for.

"My mom was getting 5 to 6 scam calls a day. She'd answer every one because she thought it might be her doctor. Since HAPS, her phone only rings when it's someone she actually knows. I handle everything else."

Sarah M.Daughter

"Dad almost wired $4,000 to someone pretending to be his grandson. That was the wake up call. HAPS means that conversation never would have happened. Worth every penny."

Michael R.Son

"The best part is my parents don't even know it's there. Their phone works exactly the same for everyone they know. They just stopped getting the scary calls."

Jennifer L.Daughter

"I live three states away from my mother. HAPS gives me a way to protect her phone without being there. When someone suspicious calls, I get it instead. Simple as that."

David K.Son

"Setup took ten minutes. My mom didn't have to learn anything new. Her doctor, her friends, her church all ring through like normal. Everything else comes to me first."

Amanda T.Daughter

"I was skeptical at first but after the first week I blocked three scam numbers that would have reached my dad directly. He has no idea. That's the whole point."

The next scam call is already dialing.

It takes about ten minutes to put HAPS between your parent and every stranger with a script. Most families set it up the same week they first hear about it — usually right after a close call.
