QuietKey

QuietKey is a mobile AI-assisted “safe space” app for people who need a fast, private way to de-escalate in real time. It combines a 60–180 second guided grounding flow (breathing, sensory prompts, short scripts) with a discreet “exit plan” builder: prewritten messages, a trusted-contact list, and location-based reminders for safe routes and meet points. The app is designed for situations where you can’t talk out loud or don’t want to draw attention—everything can be done with taps and haptics. An on-device AI coach suggests the next best micro-step based on how you rate your stress and what you’re facing (argument, panic, overstimulation). It also includes an optional post-incident journal to spot triggers and patterns over time. It is not therapy, and it won’t replace professional help, but it can reduce harm in the moment.
