About SafelyMeet

Too many safety tools are buried behind subscriptions or confusing interfaces. SafelyMeet keeps it simple, just enter a name and state, get federal court results in seconds, and we point you to where to check the rest. We also do searches upon email requests.

Our mission

To help give every woman free access to public safety records in order to make informed decisions about who she meets.

What we stand for

🔒

Privacy first

We don't store your searches, sell your data, or track who you're checking. What you search stays between you and the public record.

Free forever

SafelyMeet will never charge women for access to safety information. No subscriptions, no paywalls, no credit card required.

Honest about limitations

We only search federal courts. We tell you exactly what we searched and what we didn't — and we point you to where to check the rest.
