About Us
Why we exist.
We believe that safety is not a privilege—it's a fundamental right.
But we also believe in a harder truth: the systems designed to protect domestic violence survivors are failing them when they need help most.
The Reality We Refuse to Accept
Every 11 minutes in Australia, police respond to a domestic violence incident. But what happens in the minutes, hours, and days when police aren't there? When help is a phone call away, but making that call could mean death?
We refuse to accept that "just call 000" is good enough when:
Abusers monitor every call made
Leaving triggers the most dangerous period
Technology becomes a weapon of control
Traditional safety planning assumes freedoms that don't exist
Our Declaration of War Against the Status Quo
We are not another safety app. We are a rebellion against systems that put the burden of safety on those least able to carry it.
We are not another well-meaning solution. We are technology built by survivors, for survivors, tested in the reality of coercive control.
We are not asking victims to be braver. We are making safety possible when courage isn't enough.
This Is Our Promise
When your clients can't speak—we become their voice. When they can't call—we make the call. When they can't escape—we create the way out. When everyone else fails them—we don't.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the app available yet?
Safe Call Up is currently operational in pilot partnerships with healthcare systems, legal professionals, and domestic violence organisations across Australia. We're expanding access through strategic partnerships while continuing to enhance features based on real-world feedback from survivors and professionals.
Will the app be free?
We're actively partnering with healthcare systems, government agencies, domestic violence organisations, and corporate sponsors to make Safe Call Up free for those who need it most. Our goal is to ensure financial barriers never prevent access to life-saving safety technology. If you represent an organisation interested in sponsoring free access for survivors, please contact us about partnership opportunities.
Who is the app for?
Safe Call Up is designed for anyone experiencing domestic violence, family violence, or coercive control - especially when traditional safety methods fail because abusers monitor phones, internet, and communication. This includes women, men, LGBTQIA+ individuals, people from culturally diverse backgrounds, those in rural/remote areas, and anyone whose abuser controls their technology access.
How does evidence collection work?
Safe Call Up automatically and securely records threats, harassment, and abusive incidents with timestamps and location data. All recordings comply with Australian surveillance legislation and are admissible in court proceedings. Evidence is encrypted and stored securely, accessible only to you and legal professionals you authorise. This documentation strengthens restraining orders, custody cases, and criminal proceedings while building your safety case over time.
What support services are included?
Safe Call Up provides 24/7 AI chat support specifically trained in domestic violence dynamics, emergency alert coordination with local services, automatic evidence collection that's court-admissible under Australian law, connection to appropriate support services in your area, and crisis intervention when traditional emergency calls aren't safe to make.
How does the disguised interface work?
Safe Call Up operates invisibly on your device - no app icons, no obvious interfaces, no digital traces in call logs or browsing history. It can be activated through voice commands disguised as normal conversation, specific button sequences during regular phone use, or scheduled check-ins. If you miss a check-in, help is automatically dispatched. The technology works even when abusers monitor every aspect of your digital activity.
Can I suggest a feature or get involved in development?
Absolutely. Survivor feedback drives our development priorities. You can suggest features, participate in safe user testing, or contribute insights about what would make the technology more effective. We also welcome partnerships from healthcare professionals, legal advocates, technology experts, and funding organisations committed to improving survivor safety outcomes.
Safe Call Up isn’t working alone — we’re here to strengthen the whole sector.
Part of a Larger Movement
Collaboration-First
We work with existing services, not against them.
A Tool, Not a Replacement
Safe Call Up supports safety planning and help-seeking, but doesn’t replace case workers or legal support.
Built to Adapt
The app will evolve based on feedback from survivors and sector professionals.
