This is their core solution for personal safety, complementing their QR code-based products which are more focused on road safety and identifying lost items or children.

Girl safety is a critical concern, and "SOS" (Save Our Souls) refers to emergency alert systems designed to provide immediate assistance. These solutions leverage technology to help girls and women in distress connect with their trusted contacts or emergency services quickly.

Here's a breakdown of common SOS solutions for girl safety, with a focus on what's available and relevant in India:

1. Mobile Applications with SOS Features:

These are among the most popular and accessible SOS solutions. Most smartphones can run these apps, making them widely available.

• Nekinsan App: As discussed, Nekinsan offers a dedicated SOS feature within its mobile app.
  
  Key Features: Discreet SOS button, immediate audio message transmission (up to 1 minute), real-time live GPS location sharing, siren alerts on emergency contacts' locked screens, automatic display of photos/videos on locked screens, data privacy with call masking, and integration with their QR-based safety products (e.g., Child Safety QR).
   
• Benefits: Quick and discreet way to alert trusted contacts, provide context (audio/visual), and enable real-time tracking for intervention.

• In-App SOS Feature: This is the main component.
   

  • Discreet Activation: Users can quickly tap an SOS button within the app, allowing for a discreet alert in situations where openly making a phone call might be dangerous.
     
  • Immediate Voice Message Transmission: When the SOS button is pressed, the user can instantly record and transmit an audio message (up to one minute) to their pre-selected emergency contacts (relatives and friends). This helps to quickly convey the situation, even if the user is unable to speak clearly for a direct call.
     
  • Real-time Location Tracking: Activating the SOS feature immediately shares the user's live GPS location with trusted contacts. This allows them to monitor movements, potentially intervene, or guide the user to a safe place.
     
  • Automatic Display on Locked Screens: Photos or videos of the incident (if captured by the user) along with the location, automatically display on the locked screens of emergency contacts, making the alert immediate and noticeable.
     
  • Siren Alert: A siren sound can also play on the phones of designated emergency contacts, even if their phones are locked, ensuring the alert is not missed.
     
  • Privacy and Data Security: Nekinsan emphasizes 100% data security, using call masking technology to keep personal phone numbers confidential and securing all personal information.
     

• Child Safety QR Badges: While the SOS is primarily an in-app feature, Nekinsan also offers "Child Safety QR" badges. These can be relevant for young girls. If a girl is lost or suspected to be with a non-guardian, a bystander can scan the QR code.
  This action triggers alerts to parents/guardians with location details and the potential for the scanner to capture photos or videos.

In essence, Nekinsan's SOS for girl safety is a technology-driven approach that aims to empower women and girls with a quick, discreet, and effective way to seek help from their trusted network during emergencies, leveraging real-time location sharing and immediate communication features.
