At SafeLens, we believe that child safety should be built into the devices we use every day—not added as an afterthought.

Founded with a singular mission, SafeLens is developing real-time, on-device technology that prevents inappropriate photos from being taken on smartphones. Our patented system works at the source—within the camera hardware—blurring explicit content in milliseconds, before it can ever be captured or shared.

We’re creating the digital seatbelt for a new generation: an invisible layer of protection that works quietly and effectively in the background, giving parents peace of mind and stopping exploitation before it begins.

Why We Exist

Over the last five years, the online circulation of inappropriate images involving children has skyrocketed. Despite increased awareness, existing solutions still rely on after-the-fact moderation or invasive cloud-based scanning. We believe prevention—not detection—is the key to protecting children in a digital age.

Our Vision

To create a world where children are protected the moment a camera is powered on. Where technology enforces boundaries automatically. And where families can trust the devices in their homes again.

What We’re Building

SafeLens is developing a lightweight, embeddable chip—similar to the facial recognition tech already used in most smartphones—that detects and prevents explicit imagery in real-time, offline, and without sending data anywhere.

This isn’t just a product—it’s a step toward making child protection a standard feature, not a luxury.
