My Safetipin is a free personal safety app that makes cities safer and more inclusive, particularly for women and youth. The platform turns crowd-sourced data into actionable insights, allowing users to conduct Safety Audits across nine parameters, including lighting, visibility, walkability, and gender inclusivity. With over 6.1 million audits globally, Safetipin generates real-time safety scores and geotagged maps that guide policymakers and urban planners in prioritizing interventions like streetlight repairs, footpath improvements, and safer public transport. Cities including Delhi, Bogotá, and Nairobi have used the platform to inform infrastructure upgrades and participatory programs, empowering communities to shape safer public spaces. By combining digital crowdsourcing, data analytics, and community engagement, My Safetipin demonstrates how technology can create measurable impact, strengthen local accountability, and scale solutions for safer urban environments worldwide.
