Expanding Safety Across All Forms of Travel

imabi is proud to announce the launch of imabi Travel Guardian, a groundbreaking evolution of the highly successful Railway Guardian app. Designed to enhance public safety for everyone, everywhere, imabi Travel Guardian brings expanded support, content, and services to ensure safe travel across all modes of transportation

Building on Success

Since its launch, the Railway Guardian app has played a pivotal role in improving passenger safety on the rail network, particularly in addressing Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG). By empowering passengers to report incidents and encouraging bystander intervention, it has contributed to a remarkable 51% increase in incident reporting on the train network over the last two years.

With imabi Travel Guardian, we are extending this success to cover all forms of transport - trains, buses, taxis, trams, ferries, flights, and more - ensuring a safer journey for everyone.
