Vision
“Transform everyday devices into AI-powered guardians that protect people — safely, privately, and in real time.”
Mission
“Build privacy-first, on-device AI that detects critical threats—starting with gunshots—and alerts people in seconds, without recording or sending their audio.”
Why we exist
When seconds matter, help should live on the device you already carry. SplitSec AI turns everyday phones into private, real-time guardians—so people can act faster in the moments that matter most, without giving up their privacy.
What makes us different
Our unique approach combines cutting-edge AI with unwavering privacy principles
On-device by design
Detection runs locally on your phone. Works offline; no Wi-Fi or cellular needed for detection.*
Split-second alerts
Alerts are sent immediately as soon as our AI engine detects a gunshot.
Accuracy you can trust
Rigorous testing, clear claims, and continuous evaluation.
No special hardware
Works on the devices people already own; no special hardware or elaborate contracts.
Privacy-first
No audio is recorded, stored, or sent. Opt-in analytics only; no data sales. Safety, not surveillance.
AI For Good
SplitSec AI uses powerful AI technology to ethically make you and your communities safer. This is Ethical AI in practice.
* Connectivity may be required to notify contacts or external services.
