These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

Confidence
The site promotes an Android application that combines AI tools with a web browser. While our antivirus network shows the domain itself is clean, our research into the app's behavior reveals multiple red flags. Users and security analysts have flagged the app for requesting excessive permissions that allow it to view sensitive device details. Furthermore, the app is widely used to access pirated movies and TV shows through third-party links, which often lead to malicious sites. The company behind it is relatively new, having been incorporated in Hong Kong only in early 2025.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The website serves as a landing page for the Seekee APK, offering version 2.9.1 for download. It highlights features like AI writing, image editing, and cloud storage integration. However, the page lacks basic transparency, missing a contact email, phone number, or physical office address.

Infrastructure

The site is hosted on a common content delivery network with a valid SSL certificate. The technical setup is standard for a modern web app, but the lack of a global traffic index suggests it operates in a niche or is relatively new to the broader web.

Domain History

The domain was registered roughly 11 months ago through NameCheap. While the domain age is nearly a year, the associated business entity, SeekeeHorizon Technology (HK) Co., Limited, was only officially incorporated in March 2025, indicating a very recent formalization of the project.

Web Reputation

The app has a high rating on official stores, but a closer look at user feedback reveals serious complaints regarding 'spyware-like' permissions. Independent research highlights that the app's primary draw—free streaming of copyrighted content—frequently exposes users to high-risk external links and data harvesting practices.
Risk Factors
5
  • Requests excessive and invasive device permissions according to user reports.
  • Associated with pirated media streaming which often leads to malicious third-party sites.
  • No physical address, phone number, or direct contact email provided on the site.
  • Business registration is very recent (March 2025) despite the domain being older.
  • Multiple user reports on social media and app stores label it as a potential 'spy app'.
Positive Signals
3
  • Clean scan results from over 90 antivirus engines.
  • Maintains a high average rating on the official Google Play Store.
  • Valid SSL certificate and no history of IP abuse reports.
AI Recommendation
Exercise caution if downloading this app; avoid granting it unnecessary permissions and be aware that links to 'free' movies within the app may lead to malware.

Research summary
Narrative write-up from our AI analyst, grounded on the facts above
Our research into seekee.net and its associated app revealed significant controversy. While the app has millions of downloads and positive reviews on Google Play for its utility, independent reports on YouTube and Google Play reviews highlight 'red flags' regarding privacy. Specifically, the app requests permissions to access sensitive phone details that users find unacceptable. Additionally, it is frequently cited as a tool for accessing pirated movies, which carries inherent security risks from the external links it provides.

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 marked seekee.net as suspicious. Several warning signs were detected; it may still turn out legitimate, but you should verify it through independent channels before trusting it with money or credentials.

  • Yes. seekee.net presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, expiring in 49 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
