Ever felt unsafe and scared while walking on an empty road to return home or going somewhere else?


Noonlight, formerly SafeTrek, is a mobile app and connected security network that can cause emergency service requests. By clicking a button, users of Noonlight can activate an alarm. Users can attach to other smart devices to activate alarms for them automatically. For both Android and iOS devices, the app is available. Since 2013, it has safeguarded over 2 million users and treated over 90,000 emergencies across America.
Zach Winkler is the CEO of the company, founded and produced Noonlight. The moto of the Startup is an app to help individuals walk safely from point A to point B, is now a suite of emergency response APIs that support some of the IoT market's smartest home, wellness, and lifestyle items. Their mission is simple; protecting and soothing individuals so that they can live freely.

The app was developed at the University of Missouri in 2013 in response to the high number of crime incidents and the slow detection by 911 services of the location of people making calls. Winkler notes that "what most of us don't realize is that 9-1-1 really doesn’t have your location when you call them. It takes them up to six minutes sometimes to get a 300-meter accuracy reading of where you are" Noonlight can obtain the exact GPS location of users in seconds after activating the alarm within 5 meters.
According to CNBC, SafeTrek was one of the top 25 promising start-ups in February 2017. Originally, Noonlight began as a way to safely get students from one point to another, and now it allows users to connect through the Noonlight app to other apps and smart devices. By allowing the linked app or computer to activate the Noonlight alarm for them, this provides a way for users to get help even though they are unable or unaware of the emergency. This solution also sends crucial information to first responders to make them more aware of the situation and better prepared for it. Also, via Noonlight, users who already have memberships via some of these connected devices now have access to the safety button or other safety features.
