Introduction: Safety is No Longer an Option — It’s a Necessity

There was a time when “safety” in India meant simply a strong lock on the door, a key, and perhaps a watchman. But in today’s digital age, technology is in every hand — smartphones, apps, internet. Yet despite this, one question remains: “Are we truly safe?”
Turn on the news and you will find thefts, assaults, accidents where help arrived too late. These are not isolated events. They clearly show that our safety is still incomplete.
At the doorbell, you may ask, “Who is there?” On the road, you may feel the dread of “What do I do now?” A parent wonders, “Did my child reach school safely?” A woman travelling alone at night senses fear.
To address these questions, ScanSathi was born — a companion that says:

“Technology should not only bring convenience — it should bring safety too.”

What is ScanSathi?

ScanSathi is a smart, QR-based safety system that builds a digital safety network covering your home and vehicle. No apps to download, no complex procedures: just one scan and your security is activated.
The two main solutions are:

• Doorbell QR Safety System – for homes
• Vehicle QR Safety System – for cars/bikes
  And very soon, ScanSathi will expand into children safety, women safety and medical emergency systems.

Doorbell QR Safety – A Scan for Trust at Your Door

Picture this: It’s evening. Reena is at home by herself. The doorbell rings. A delivery person stands outside. Reena wonders, “Is this really who he says he is?”
This scenario is not just for Reena — it’s real for every home, every woman.
If a ScanSathi Doorbell QR were placed on her door, she could scan the code and instantly see:

• the visitor’s name
• his company and verification
• a digital record of the visit
  This isn’t just about locking the door — it’s about confidence, insight and protection.
  How it works:

1. A unique QR code is affixed at the door or gate.
2. Every visitor scans the code.
3. The homeowner receives the information instantly.
4. Every visit is logged digitally for future reference.
   Benefits:

• “Who’s there?” becomes information, not uncertainty.
• Women and elders feel safer.
• Digital record of every visit.
• Zero-contact verification.
• 100% Made in India technology.
  Tagline:

“Open your door with trust — not with fear.”

Vehicle QR Safety – Your Life-Saving Companion on the Road

Roads are full of risks — accidents, theft, medical emergencies. The real challenge is not just the crash, but whether help arrives in time.
Imagine someone is in an accident. Passers-by see the vehicle, but don’t know who the occupant is, or whom to contact, or whether the person needs medical help.
If the vehicle carried a ScanSathi Vehicle QR Code, anyone could scan and instantly access:

• the owner’s name and emergency contact
• blood group and medical details
• location-based alerts sent immediately to family and police
  This isn’t just a sticker — it’s a life-saving technology.
  Benefits:
• Instant alert when an accident happens.
• Location tracking in theft cases.
• Medical details available to first-responders.
• No app required.
• Real-time connectivity.

India’s Road Accident Crisis – The Urgent Need for ScanSathi

The facts are shocking and demand action. India is among the countries with the highest number of road accident fatalities in the world.

• In 2023, India recorded about 480,583 road accidents, a 4.2% increase from 2022. Ministry of Road Transport & Highways+3Business Standard+3ThePrint+3
• In that same year, roughly 172,890 people lost their lives in road accidents — that’s an average of 474 deaths every single day. The Times of India+1
• Over 460,000 people were injured in those accidents. Business Standard
• Nearly 45% of fatalities were two-wheeler riders; pedestrians comprised about 20% of deaths. ThePrint+1
• Speeding was the cause of nearly 68% of fatal crashes. Business Standard+1
  These numbers clearly show that traditional safety measures are not enough. Each day hundreds of lives are lost, and thousands more are injured — this is not acceptable.

Why ScanSathi is Absolutely Essential

Given the scale of the crisis, it’s clear we cannot rely solely on after-the-fact solutions. We need proactive, smart safety systems. Here’s why ScanSathi matters:

1. Human error, driver fatigue, speeding, under-use of helmets/seat-belts — most accidents are preventable.
2. Traditional safety systems (locks, CCTV, alarms) only act after the incident occurs. ScanSathi acts at the moment of entry or vehicle use.
3. Its dual-approach covers both home and vehicle — two major points of vulnerability.
4. It provides instant verification and alerts — bringing safety into real time.
5. A one-scan solution means no complex installations or user burdens — simplicity ensures higher usage.
   In short, safety becomes meaningful only when help arrives on time — that is the core value of ScanSathi.
