The Problem

Nationwide, 81% of women and 43% of men reported experiencing some form of sexual harassment and/or assault in their lifetime. Despite these high numbers, the field of self-defense technology has remained stagnant for many years, showing no innovation to prevent these numbers from growing.

Building a Safer World

Protecht uses the many years of feedback from current self defense devices to create more ergonomic and hi-tech forms of self defense. Designed using direct feedback from women, our devices are built with ease of use and safety for the user in mind. Using embedded technology and innovative design, we are able to bring an all-in-one approach to self defense, rather than forcing people to buy multiple expensive devices to feel safe on the street.
