CoverMe-Seat — Effective & Ethically-designed Dual-use Ballistic Protection
Practical Protection was founded by an Amazon engineer and product safety expert who decided that the $4B+ global body armor market was in desperate need of high-tech, data-driven solutions. CoverMe-Seat, designed for both pros and everyday users, is the ethical & effective answer to typical "bulletproof" products that index on fear over efficacy.

We are excited to be able to talk to Product Hunt about the CoverMe-Seat and our unique approach to anti-ballistic protection. We created the CoverMe-Seat because we saw an opportunity in the massive personal protection industry for a company that indexed on efficacy over the fear-based imagery that accompanied most "bulletproof" protection on the market. Our product is simple and physically unassuming, yet it demonstrates stopping power leaps and bounds beyond most ballistic products, and is engineered to be as easy to use as an app.
It's especially important for us to emphasize that we see ourselves as an ethical company first, and a tech-based protection company second. Check out the video blog linked above for some background on the product and our approach. The blog was recorded prior to our Kickstarter launch when we were still calling it "Prydwen" (see the Medium post for details of how Kickstarter suspended us for being a "Weapon Accessory").
