Hi Product Hunt! 👋 The idea for ByeBye sparked while I was reading the book 'The Boyfriend' by Freida McFadden at 11pm while trying to shut my ADHD brain off (jokes on me!). The main character, on a first date, realized she'd been catfished. Her safety net—a friend who always called to give her an "out"—failed her because she got distracted. Sadly, the date took a dark turn, and she was assaulted. And spoiler alert, the guy turned into her stalker. That moment stuck with me. Would she have been assaulted if her friend didn't forget to call her? I started wondering, how often does this happen in real life? It turns out, 91% of single women in America are worried about their overall safety when going on dates. So, at 11pm that night, I went into my hyper-focus mode, went down on rabbit hole and found a shocking gap—there wasn’t a simple, automatic solution for this. Sometimes you don’t want to share the details of a first date with friends or family—it’s personal, and you want to handle it yourself. Plus, relying on someone you know to call isn’t foolproof. Life happens, and plans fall through. They might forget, get distracted, or just not understand the urgency. That’s why we built an automatic solution to give you control. Look, as a millennial married mom, my dating days are long behind me—unless you count negotiating bedtime with twin toddlers 🙃. But my knack for scrappy startups couldn’t ignore the chance to empower women—and anyone, really—with a graceful (or urgent) exit strategy. That’s why I created ByeBye. For just $0.99, it gives you an instant escape hatch—an "emergency" call when you need it most. And every call supports a cause close to my heart, donating 5% to @ShelterMovers.
