CREATED BY WOMEN WHO WERE DONE FEELING UNSAFE.
It all started with a group project.
Safely was founded by four women at The University of Texas after two students were murdered on campus. Like so many others, we had our own moments—getting followed on a run, walking home with keys clutched in our fists, or texting friends “made it home” just to feel safe.
We realized what too many women already know: the world wasn’t built with our safety in mind. So we decided to change that.
Today, Safely is a women-owned self-defense company creating powerful, easy-to-use safety tools—including pepper spray, practice spray, and our patent-pending Sidekick. Whether you’re heading to class, going for a run, or just living your everyday life, we’re here to help you feel prepared, not scared.
Because safety shouldn’t be a privilege. It should be a given.
CREATING A SAFER TOMORROW
Our Mission
At Safely, our mission is to create a safer tomorrow by giving women the tools, knowledge, and confidence to take charge of their personal safety. We believe every woman deserves to feel safe—whether walking home, running alone, or going about daily life.
Our values—community, education, and empowerment—shape everything we do. Through innovative self-defense products, expert-backed safety tips, and in-person events, we’re building a supportive space where women feel prepared, not scared. Safety should never be intimidating, and with the right tools and knowledge, confidence comes naturally.
We’re here to make that happen.
