Adastra addresses a critical real-world problem (relationship safety/abuse detection) with a timely AI-driven solution. However, the submission is critically undermined by demonstrably false traction claims ('most people have used my product') and unprofessional data entry. While the concept has high social utility, the project appears to be in a very early stage with minimal verifiable footprint, contrasting sharply with the hyperbolic reach claims.

Description
Adastra is a relationship insight tool built for people navigating emotionally complex or unsafe relationships. We combine trauma-informed design with AI to detect behavioural red flags, track emotional patterns, and deliver personalised insights. Our core engine – the Emotional Safety Index – interprets mood logs, language signals, and subtle behaviour shifts to surface early signs of abuse or toxicity. This isn’t just self-help. It’s preventative tech for a problem most don’t see coming until it’s too late. We're currently onboarding early users to shape the product, validate outcomes, and build the future of emotional safety. Join us!
