Totally fair — it’s not something everyone would need. What I’ve found is some people (especially women, or folks dealing with social anxiety) feel much safer or more in control when they can trigger a real, short, believable call. Think of a scenario a creep following a woman walking alone, creepy taxi driver? They would feel safer triggering a call.

That’s the angle I’m exploring with ComfortCall — not fake conversations, but genuine, on-demand interruptions that give you an out when you need one.
