Our Tech
We use tech for good
We have harnessed the power of technology to make a difference.
Through our 3 tech-based solutions - the GRIT mobile application, Zuzi AI chatbot, and our Whatsapp helpline, we facilitate reporting, provide guidance, connect survivors to legal professionals, and offer in-person court support and access to post-violence care.

Our GRIT App
The GRIT app is a valuable resource for anyone who might experience GBV in South Africa. It provides a safe and confidential way to report abuse and can connect survivors with the support they need. The app is also free to use, which makes it accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial circumstances.

Our Chatbot
We have developed a supportive, knowledgeable, African, and trauma-informed ChatBot that GBV survivors—who often believe they have no one else to turn to—can speak to.
Zuzi, our AI chatbot solution, is designed to provide critical information about the rights and legal services available to survivors of gender-based violence. As well as addressing sexual and reproductive health issues (SRH).
Zuzi's accessibility and anonymity bridge the gap for those who may lack access to traditional SRH services or hesitate due to stigma.
