1. Protection

When installed on a device or network, R;pple identifies harmful user searches across the web, forums and video sharing sites.

R;pple protects users from self-harm and suicide-related searches globally. This can include topics with evidence-based links to suicide.

Available for UK Browser Extension users, with wider availability planned.

2. Intervention

Harmful searches are instantly identified and intercepted with a calmly presented pop-up and a message of hope.

3. Support

The person in crisis is signposted to localised 24/7 helplines and mental health resources for both immediate and long-term support.

Private and Secure

R;pple is an invisible guardian. When installed on a network or a device, R;pple never collects personally identifiable information or interferes with existing technology.
