RakshaNet is a web-based Women Safety SOS system that is intended to offer prompt assistance in an emergency. Users can share their current location, initiate an SOS alert, and contact local emergency services like police stations and hospitals with just one tap.
Women often face unsafe situations where immediate help is required, but accessing emergency services quickly can be difficult. Delays in communication, lack of location sharing, and complex interfaces reduce the chances of timely assistance.
