✓ Endorsed

Endorse partially. OlimpIA demonstrates potential for a positive social impact through the use of AI to support women experiencing digital violence. However, in an application of this nature, data protection, confidentiality and the prevention of revictimisation are not merely additional features; they are fundamental requirements to ensure that the technology does not create new risks for the very women it is intended to support.

✓ Best fit for

Survivors and professionals working with them.
