Help, where it's needed most.
A safety ring small enough to be invisible. One press sends your live location to people who care, in seconds. Given to anyone who needs one. No charge, no questions, no return address.
Free across AU, NZ, UK. Shipped in unbranded packaging. We don't share addresses, names, or referrals with anyone.
A world where every person can call for help and get it.
Duress started with people who needed help and did not have it. Halo is the smallest, most personal version of that mission. A wearable that doesn't look like a panic button, because the people who need a panic button can't always be seen carrying one.
One press. No one sees it. Three people know.
- Step 01
Hold the button.
One press for ten seconds. A brief light confirms the alert went out. No siren, no screen.
- Step 02
Three people are notified.
Up to three trusted contacts you've nominated - a family member, a neighbour, a case worker - receive the alert with your live location, immediately.
- Step 03
Help arrives.
Your contacts see your live location the moment the alert lands - they come to you, or call the right emergency service for exactly where you are.
Engineered to disappear on your finger.
Slim stainless steel core. Matte black finish. Touch sensor on the inside. No screen, no logo, no obvious tells. The kind of thing you forget you're wearing until the moment you need it.
- 7 days battery life on one charge
- IP67 water, dust, drop resistant
- 10g lighter than a wedding band
- Discreet no screen, no logo, no obvious tells
If you can't pay,
we'll send you one.
Halo is free. We ship in unbranded packaging with no return address that points back at the program. We don't ask questions someone in danger shouldn't have to answer.
Who we send them to
- Currently or recently leaving a violent home or relationship
- Working with a DV support service, refuge, or case worker
- Working in front-line community services, healthcare, or outreach
- Living alone, elderly, or with a medical condition that makes self-rescue hard
- Anyone a registered DV service refers to us, no questions asked
Partners we work with
If your service supports survivors and you'd like a supply for case workers to issue on the spot, get in touch.
Confidential. We don't share your address with anyone. We don't publish recipients. We don't ask you to prove you're a victim.
The same safety platform. Made personal.
Halo is built by Duress, the safety platform that government departments, hospitals, retailers and councils have trusted for years. The same engineering, the same care - shaped into something small enough to wear every day, with alerts that go straight to the people you choose.
