Why OurPwr exists
This is for the daily safety concerns as much as the worst ones: the walk to your car, the bus home, a first date, a shift that ends after dark, harassment at work, sexual assault. Any of them can leave you without a clear way to get help at the moment you need it. OurPwr gives you a way to reach the people you trust before, during and after. We are here to eradicate daily safety concerns, and we are built for students, parents, women who work alone, anyone who takes public transit after dark, and anyone who would rather not have to think about it at all.
Built from lived experience
Robin was sexually harassed at work at seventeen and could not find a safety solution that was any use, because everything on the market was a reactive panic button. Women need proactive tools: ones that capture evidence, work discreetly, and come with a community of support behind them.
What we stand for
OurPwr is here to take the weight off your daily safety concerns with technology that has your back. It should give women more room to live their lives, not one more reason to watch over their shoulder.
One network, three forms
OurPwr begins with the iPhone and grows into faster, quieter ways to reach the same circle of people. One network, however you reach for it.
The phone already in your hand becomes the first point of activation and the digital witness.
Start the same response from your wrist without reaching for your phone.
A discreet, single-purpose device for activation when a phone or watch is not the right fit.
Your circle
A Circle is a plan you make on a calm day, for a day that is anything but. Choose the people and services who fit your life, put them in the order you want, and let one quiet action set the whole thing moving.
The people who know you best, and who can be moving before anyone else even knows.
Your campus support network, where a partnership is active.
Trusted people nearby: classmates, co-workers and club members.
Official response where integration is available and you choose it.
Campus and authority connections depend on local partnerships. Custom Circle modes and predictive support are on the roadmap.
Every person who joins is one more someone close enough to notice, to check, to come. OurPwr turns being surrounded by people into being looked after by them.
OurPwr is designed to make therapy, campus security, and mental and physical health services easier to reach before, during, and after a difficult moment.
