Personal safety, wearable
Safe Track Solutions pairs a discreet tracking chip — built into a press-on nail — with real-time alerts, so help can reach you even when your phone can't.

Why we built this
The scale of gender-based violence in South Africa is what put this team in a room together in the first place.
~9,100
kidnapping cases were reported to SAPS in South Africa between January and June 2026 — the most recent published quarters.
15,343
women are kidnapped in South Africa in an average year — a number that keeps climbing.
This work is personal to our team. In August 2019, Uyinene Mrwetyana — a 19-year-old first-year student at UCT — was abducted and murdered while running an errand. Her death sparked a national reckoning on violence against women that South Africa is still living through.
We started Safe Track Solutions so that reaching help never depends on having a free hand, a charged phone, or a moment no one is watching.

The product
A tracking microchip and voice-recognition module, small enough to sit inside a press-on nail. Pair it once with the STS app, set a safety word, and it's ready — no bag to dig through, no separate device to charge and carry.
Say your safety word and STS checks in, notifies your trusted contacts, then routes your location and audio to an armed response team if you don't respond — all without you touching your phone.
A normal, wearable finish — indistinguishable from any manicure.
Seals the electronics against knocks, water, and everyday wear.
NFC pairing, GPS tracking, and voice-recognition trigger.
Keeps the chip comfortable against skin for all-day wear.
How it works
Every alert is designed to rule out false alarms first, so real emergencies get a fast, confident response.
Your safety word triggers a check-in. Respond, or say your disable word, and nothing else happens.
No response — your SOS contacts are notified immediately with your last known location.
Still no response — your location and audio are sent to the nearest armed response team.
Who it's for
Safety-conscious, tech-savvy, and often out alone — commuting at night, travelling, or living independently in urban South Africa.
Parents and partners who want real peace of mind — not another app they have to remember she has to open.

Every plan includes the option to buy the nail tech itself separately through the app.
