Problem
Personal safety devices often require a phone connection to function, leaving users vulnerable in areas with no signal or when they cannot reach their phone. Many existing solutions are bulky, inconvenient to carry daily, or lack a way to quickly and discreetly alert trusted contacts in an emergency.
Solution
EVA is a compact, wearable personal safety device that provides an immediate, multi-layered response with a single pull of its pin. The device triggers a 130 dB siren and a built-in flashlight that work independently of a phone, ensuring a loud, visible deterrent even without connectivity. When paired with a smartphone, EVA automatically sends the user's live location to pre-selected emergency contacts and initiates a one-tap emergency call. The setup is designed to be a simple, repeatable habit: connect the device to a phone, carry it on keys or a bag, and pull the pin when something feels wrong. EVA prioritizes user privacy by not tracking location in the background, only sharing it when an alert is actively triggered. The device is splash-resistant and features a deliberate press-and-hold activation to prevent accidental alarms.
Target Audience
Primary customers are individuals seeking a discreet, everyday-carry personal safety device for themselves or loved ones, particularly those who frequently walk alone, commute, or want an added layer of security without relying solely on a smartphone.
Features
- 130 dB siren that operates independently of a phone connection, described as roughly as loud as a jet engine heard from 30 metres and piercing enough to disorient someone up close.

- Live location sharing sends the user's real-time position to chosen emergency contacts only when an alert is activated, with no background tracking.
- One-tap emergency calling feature available when paired with a smartphone, which calls the local emergency number without requiring the user to unlock the phone.
- Smart Bluetooth Auto-Connect works seamlessly in the background without requiring the user to open an app.
- Deliberate press-and-hold activation mechanism with an SOS countdown, preventing false alarms from accidental bumps or presses and cancellable in seconds if triggered.
