WanderSafe

About

WanderSafe is the flagship WanderVerse product. Started as LGBTQ+ travel safety intelligence — now expanding to cover every population WanderVerse serves: LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, disabled, BIPOC, DV survivors, undocumented, Indigenous, and formerly incarcerated travelers. Each identity layer surfaces the risks that actually matter for that person — BIPOC travelers see documented racism patterns and police violence data; disabled travelers see medication availability, accessible healthcare access, and ADA-equivalent protections abroad; DV survivors see extradition data and travel document safety. One platform, your profile, your risk picture. 152 destinations, deterministic and explainable scoring. MIT licensed. Built under Wandering With Pride, Inc.

Evidence-Based Design

This product's design is grounded in peer-reviewed research and validated practice.

• LGBTQ+ adults are twice as likely to report discrimination when seeking healthcare — informing WanderSafe's healthcare access scoring. KFF Survey of LGBTQ+ Adults (2023)
• Community-based safety networks outperform centralized authority reporting by 34% in accuracy for marginalized community threat detection. Browne et al. (2023). Community Safety Networks. Social Science & Medicine. PMID 38137945PubMed: 38137945
