• Inspiration Behind SecretBuddy
- Real-World Safety Fears — Especially for Girls & Young Women
Many girls in including teenagers, feel unsafe in public, on social media, and even in their own homes.
In many cases, women cannot openly install or use safety apps without facing suspicion, especially from controlling partners, family members, or abusers.
- Existing Safety Apps Aren’t Enough
Most apps (like Raksha, Safetipin, etc.) focus only on open SOS buttons or GPS tracking.
They don’t offer stealth, emotional support, or hidden tracking of abuse.
- Rising Digital Harassment
•SecretBuddy also tackles growing issues like:
Blackmail using private pictures
Threats from classmates/peers
Online grooming or harassment
As a girl myself, I’ve seen how common it is to feel unsafe — even in school or at home. But we don’t always have the power or permission to ask for help. SecretBuddy was born from the idea that sometimes, the best protection is silent, smart, and hidden.
Then show how SecretBuddy fills the gaps:
Disguised interface

Smart triggers and AI support
