In the world we’re building — where individuals, not institutions, control their money, data, and digital identity — security must evolve beyond passive defense. It must become intelligent, proactive, and user-aligned.
Safe Watch Agent is our latest leap toward that future: a fraud detection agent for Safe wallets on Gnosis Chain and Ethereum. By combining AI with onchain infrastructure, it brings proactive, user-first security directly into the hands of everyday users, developers, and DAOs.
From Infrastructure to Intelligence
Gnosis 3.0 is about more than decentralized infrastructure — it’s about infrastructure that works for people.
Safe Watch Agent fits squarely into this vision, giving users the ability to protect their digital assets with active fraud detection baked into their Safe wallet. Think of it as a guardian co-signer: it analyzes transactions before they’re executed, flagging malicious behavior and preventing losses — all without sacrificing the self-custody and censorship resistance that define Gnosis Chain.
How It Works
Safe Watch Agent is an onchain agent that acts as a signer on your Safe. Once added, it monitors your queued transactions 24/7 and provides near-instant feedback.
Here’s what it can detect:
🚨 Transactions that send large funds to unknown or suspicious addresses
⚠️ Excessively high gas fees
⛔ Transfers to blacklisted or malicious actors (via GoPlusLabs)
🧠 AI-flagged behavior patterns that suggest fraud or social engineering
The agent doesn’t just monitor — it acts. If a transaction is deemed malicious, Safe Watch Agent blocks it by submitting a rejection. If it’s safe, it can sign and help execute the transaction (if the Safe’s threshold is met).
Try the Demo
You don’t need to commit to anything to test Safe Watch Agent. Just head to our live demo:
Moreover, if interested, you can also integrate it into your products using our public API.
You can:
Simulate Safe Watch Agent verification process on your own Safe wallet
Test historical transactions to see how it would respond (in this case, we investigated Safe address 0xac140648435d03f784879cd789130f22ef588fcd and transaction multisig_0xac140648435d03f784879cd789130F22Ef588Fcd_0xc792ef2c2fd7b817af964d9ec2de5afbe9e4d8ff671b7ca6fc42a13089eb83bb on Gnosis Chain)
Experiment with malicious behavior and watch it react in real time
Whether you're a developer, power user, or DAO multisig operator, Safe Watch Agent gives you a glimpse into the future of onchain security — one where AI and credible neutrality work hand in hand.
How You Can Integrate This Into Your Stack
There are three ways to use Safe Watch Agent:
Manual
