What is your default safety habit when walking alone at night?

Almost everyone has a ritual when walking home in the dark or through an unfamiliar area:

• Holding keys between your knuckles

• Calling a friend just to have someone on the phone

• Checking behind you every 15 seconds

• Pretending to talk on speakerphone

The problem? None of these actually get first responders or loved ones to your location with real context if something actually goes wrong.

We're building Aegis to replace these "safety habits" with real, automated protection, sending live tracking, video, and medical data to dispatchers without needing to say a word.

Curious to hear from everyone:

What is your go-to habit when you feel uneasy walking somewhere, and what would make you feel truly safe in that moment?
