Presenting SafeRide as a privacy-first transport safety workflow.
At the UNICEF Venture Fund meet, SafeRide was presented less as a campaign and more as a product question: how can a rider document harassment, understand support options, and still control what leaves their phone?
The conversation centred on the practical pieces that matter before scale: local drafts, consent review, redacted route signals, referral boundaries, and a route accountability model that does not turn survivor experience into public exposure.
