Survivors need better tools.
Nobody is building them.

DV orgs run on spreadsheets and software built for someone else. Sanctum is fixing that.

Your team could build this.
Here's why they shouldn't.

Building the button is easy. Maintaining it is the job. We do that for every org at once.

What to say when they ask "why not build it ourselves?"

"You could. A basic version isn't hard. But who fixes it when Chrome updates how history clearing works? Who runs the security audit? We do that for every org at once, and we're building the analytics and grant reporting your team would never have time for."

One relationship.
Many products.

The widget gets us in the door. Once orgs trust Sanctum, we build every tool they need.

Talk to us

Nonprofit discounts available. Survivors never pay for any Sanctum product.

Built different.
On purpose.

Technology for this sector is usually built by people who've never sat in a shelter intake. We build alongside the orgs that have.

Privacy is non-negotiable
Zero survivor data collected. Architecturally impossible to identify who used an exit button. Not policy, code.
Maintenance is the product
We push one update when browsers change. Every org gets fixed automatically, without knowing there was a problem.
Free at the base, always
Core widget is free forever. We make money from analytics and features, not by gating safety behind a paywall.
Open source fallback
Widget is open source on GitHub. If Sanctum shuts down, any developer forks it and self-hosts in an hour.
Built with orgs, not for them
Every product starts with 3 months of listening to shelter staff. SAFE Alliance Austin is our first design partner.
Grant-ready by design
Every metric is formatted for funder reports. One click produces the PDF. No more counting spreadsheet rows.
