It Happens.
More Than You Know.
Drink spiking is not a distant problem — it happens at parties, pubs, restaurants and trains across India. Many victims never report it. We're building the tool that gives them a choice before it's too late.
⚠️ The following are documented, real incidents from Indian news sources.

Backed By Chemistry.
Built For You.
Our strips use competitive antigen-antibody reactions, modified and validated for high accuracy across diverse beverages — alcoholic and non-alcoholic.
Lateral Flow Immunoassay
Strip membrane coated with antibodies specific to common spiking agents. Drug molecules compete with the control line in a calibrated immunoassay reaction.
Modified For Beverage Matrix
Standard immunoassay principles adapted to work accurately in the presence of alcohol, sugars, and other beverage compounds.
Field Validated & MVP Tested
Field trials conducted in 2025–26. Full accuracy statistics will be published post product launch.
Safe Beverage
All lines present
Lines 1, 2, 3 and C are all present. No adulterant detected. Your drink is safe.
Unsafe / Invalid
Unsafe
Unsafe: Line 1 and/or 2 and/or 3 is absent. Drug molecules have blocked test line formation. Do NOT consume this drink.
Invalid: If the C line is absent, the test is invalid — discard and use a new device.
