THE GUIDE For U – Building a Safer World Together THE GUIDE For U is a community-driven safety app that helps you protect yourself while also keeping others safe. It is designed for solo female travelers, people living alone, older adults, and anyone who wants safer everyday life and travel. ● Safe Voice – Real male voices on demand When you’re home alone or dealing with an unfamiliar visitor while traveling, Safe Voice speaks on your behalf with a natural male voice. We currently offer 28 real male voices in six languages (Korean, English, Japanese, Traditional Chinese, French, and Spanish), and we keep adding new phrases over time. Door responses: “Who is it?”, “Please leave it at the door.”, “I’m busy right now.” Travel essentials: “How much is it?”, “I’d like to check in.”, “Where is the restroom?” With one-tap playback and favorites, you can respond quickly in stressful situations. ● Risk Report – Real-time safety sharing If you see something risky or suspicious, you can submit a quick report in the app. Your report is shared with users within a 500 m radius to help them choose a safer route. You can report dark streets, suspicious people, fire or violence, structural damage, groups of drunk people, and more. When reports start to add up in one place, we flag the area as high risk and send early alerts to nearby users. ● Smart Tracker Integration – SOS, Theft & Intrusion Alerts, and Phone Finder · THE GUIDE For U works with a separate Bluetooth smart tracker so you can ask for help even when your phone is in your bag or across the room. · Press and hold the tracker button to send an SOS alert and your live location to your trusted contacts. · Place the tracker on your bag, laptop, or suitcase in a café or library to detect theft when someone picks up or significantly moves your belongings. · Attach the tracker to your room or home door during your set sleep hours to detect strong knocking or attempts to open the door and send intrusion alerts. · Use the Phone Finder feature to make your phone ring when it’s nearby but you can’t locate it. All tracker features require Bluetooth and location permissions to be enabled on your smartphone, and alerts are only sent to the trusted contacts you select in the app. Key Benefits · Instant responses using natural male voices · Six global languages with an ever-growing phrase library · Community-driven risk prediction and real-time alerts · SOS, theft, intrusion, and phone-finder features via Bluetooth smart tracker · Anonymous reports and adjustable location radius to protect your privacy With THE GUIDE For U, you can protect yourself and help others stay safe, making every path a little safer for everyone.
