I’ve tried giving screenshots of phishing emails to a local Qwen instance and so far it always correctly detected it as scam, even points out the exact elements that it based its judgement on. Sending screenshots to it ad-hoc isn’t too scalable for family and friends. I’d like to be able to either forward emails for screening, or perhaps have it screen everything from a mailbox.
Has anyone done anything like this? Is there anything self-hostable that does this?


I only read about that today, so I hadn’t even considered that angle. They’re doing some cool stuff in that space.
jeffis the self-hostable one that does best as far as I know.You actually have a lot of options in this space. You can take the prefill engine of just about any LLM and turn it’s transformer into a classifier by lobotomizing out the decoder. You can also use a diffusion model on single pass to surprisingly competent result.
If Jeff looks easy enough to deploy by all means start there, but don’t discount the idea if Jeff sucks; you have a lot of options.
