Hi, I'm Léa Bauchet.
In 2022, I was drugged and raped twice. Since then, I have been fighting a terrible, unfair and exhausting legal battle.
And I asked myself: "What was I missing to prevent this assault?"
That's how the idea was born: a seemingly ordinary keychain, packed with technology to prevent other women, children and men from going through what I went through.
