Kent Women Uses AI To Tackle Abuse

The Ask Joan app is a ground breaking tool designed to help victims of domestic abuse secretly request help. Developed by Katy Longhurst, a survivor herself, the app detects unusual surges in household appliances like kettles or toasters, which may indicate danger. Once a surge is detected, it sends discreet alerts to trusted contacts or authorities, allowing for swift intervention. This innovative app is empowering victims to reach out for help without their abuser noticing, offering a new level of safety and support.
