Shieldly

Aim: To protect children from online predators with Shieldly – an AI-powered safety app that detects grooming and triggers emergency Alerts.

Shieldly – The Future of Online Child Safety
Developed by the team at Pixrweb

Overview
Shieldly is an AI-powered safety app designed to protect children in today’s digital-first world. Developed by the innovative team at Pixrweb, Shieldly uses intelligent systems to monitor online activity, identify threats, and provide parents with peace of mind — all in real-time.

Inspiration Behind Shieldly
The founder of Pixrweb was driven to create Shieldly after witnessing one too many online predators escape justice. The turning point came when local authorities excused their inaction in a grooming case by stating the predator was simply “too tech-savvy.” That was the moment it became clear: technology should be protecting children — not shielding those who exploit them.

Shieldly is our answer. This is where it stops.
This is where Pixrweb steps in to change the world — through revolutionary technology like GuardianBot™ and Shieldly.ai.

Key Features

• GuardianBot™ AI
An advanced AI trained to monitor interactions for signs of grooming, manipulation, and predatory behavior. GuardianBot uses contextual learning to detect subtle cues often missed by traditional filters.

• Real-Time Alerts
Parents receive instant alerts if Shieldly detects suspicious behavior or risky communication, enabling immediate intervention.

• Privacy-First Monitoring
Shieldly doesn’t spy — it safeguards. The app focuses on intent and behavioral cues, not full content, to maintain trust and dignity while offering strong protection.

• Digital Wellness Tools
Manage screen time, track app usage, and receive age-based digital health tips for safer, balanced device use.

• Lockdown Feature
In moments of threat or distress, children can manually activate Lockdown Mode, which immediately:

• Blocks all outgoing messages
  
  
• Freezes access to unsafe apps
  
  
• Sends instant alerts to trusted contacts with the child's live geolocation
  
  

But it doesn’t stop there — GuardianBot™ can also trigger Lockdown Mode automatically.

If GuardianBot detects alarming or inappropriate language, grooming patterns, or unsafe behavior within chats, it will instantly initiate Lockdown and alert the parent or guardian in real-time. This proactive measure ensures children are protected even if they’re unsure, scared, or unable to act themselves.

• GuardianBot Decoy Deployment (exclusive feature)
When extreme risk is detected, GuardianBot can activate a Decoy Persona, mimicking the child’s online presence. This tool lures predators into continued interaction — allowing Shieldly to capture valuable behavioral data, conversation records, and digital fingerprints that can be securely passed to law enforcement.
This system is designed not only to protect but also to assist in the arrest and prosecution of predators.

Our Mission
Shieldly’s mission is simple: Empower families to navigate the digital world with confidence and safety. In an age where children are increasingly exposed to online risks, we believe Shieldly can be the trusted guardian in every home.
