What stays invisible is hard to change.

When relationships feel unsafe, energy is spent on anticipating, avoiding, pleasing, explaining and surviving. When relationships become safer, people are more able to be present, think clearly, understand their own needs and act in alignment with their values. This is not limited to romantic relationships. The same underlying dynamics are visible in families, friendships, workplaces, leadership, client work and wider social systems. Relationship safety is a wellbeing issue. It is also a performance issue, an organizational effectiveness issue, and a societal sustainability issue.

Our products are intended to support self-reflection and the user’s own agency. They are not intended to position other people as enemies, diagnoses or evidence in a dispute.

Safety in Relationships Oy Ltd publishes a clear statement of purpose, ethical boundaries, user safety expectations, and how artificial intelligence may be used. The document explains what kinds of features we pursue, what we avoid, and how we respond when a design approaches therapy, legal advice, surveillance or harm. It is written for partners, collaborators and anyone evaluating our work in sensitive human contexts. The same principles apply across consumer tools and organizational engagements, with roles and responsibilities spelled out where delivery is co-owned.

Manifesto

The global survey maps the wider consequences of intimate partner violence and gender-based violence across a survivor's life: health, work, finances, parenting, relationships, social participation, and sense of agency, through the phases before, during, and after the violence. It also makes covert abuse tactics measurable, from coercive control to gaslighting and reputation attacks.

The survey is developed with the evaluoi.ai Impact Intelligence platform and validated with an international Delphi expert panel before launch. We are recruiting panelists now, and those who wish can be named in the published survey reports. The survey runs annually, and participating partner organizations get access to the accumulating data. Respondent privacy is protected by design: responses are anonymous, and no one is asked to relive violent events.

Relationship safety should not be available only to those who can afford it. For consumer-facing applications, we use solidarity-based pricing. For users who cannot pay right now, the service is available at zero cost. For users who can pay more, there is the option to support access for others. This is a deliberate choice. Access does not depend on money.

The exact access model may vary by application, but the principle is the same: lack of money should not be the barrier. Free access, solidarity-based pricing or partner-supported access may be used where needed.
