Confidence
The domain has been registered for nearly six years and is operated by a verified US-based company with significant venture capital funding. Our antivirus network and major browser blocklists show no technical threats originating from the site itself. While some security researchers have noted that attackers use Gamma's tools to host phishing pages, this is a common issue for cloud-based platforms and does not reflect the legitimacy of the service. Independent reviews confirm it is a popular tool for startups and students. We have assigned a high trust score based on its established business history and clean technical scan.

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on gamma.app and not a lookalike like g-amma.app.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review found no threat indicators on gamma.app. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
  • gamma.app passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 89/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
  • Yes. gamma.app presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · E7, expiring in 36 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • gamma.app is 5.9 years old, registered on 8/11/2020 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • No. All 92 antivirus engines in our malware network report gamma.app as clean.
  • No. gamma.app is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • gamma.app resolves to an IP operated by Cloudflare, Inc. in US (usage type: Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.
  • This is a permanent record of the scan run on July 4, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around gamma.app have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.
