Impact

ECHO improves safety outcomes in the most vulnerable spaces—without recording, profiling, or violating privacy.

Earlier Help for Students Who Never Report

Less than half of students who experience bullying report it to an authority. Fear, shame, and lack of trust delay intervention until harm escalates.
 
ECHO enables earlier detection of distress—without requiring students to speak up or sacrifice privacy.

Early Intervention

Detects physical harassment and distress signals at the moment they occur.

Reduced Psychological Burden

Students are protected without being watched, recorded, or monitored.

Support Without Exposure

Enables staff response without public identification or interrogation of victims. 

Closing the Safety Blind Spot in Schools

Schools are legally and ethically responsible for student safety, yet prohibited from monitoring many high-risk areas. ECHO extends protection into these blind spots without introducing surveillance risk.

Bullying and school violence carry long-term costs—medical care, counseling, academic disruption, and loss of trust. Early detection reduces both human and economic damage. 

  • ~1 in 3 adolescents experience bullying globally

  • School violence costs victims over $600 million annually

  • Suicide is a leading cause of death among bullied youth
