SafeHer Inc.’s CEO Kalie Nitzsche is an online safety advocate, and former Adobe tech sales leader, whose founder story began by necessity after falling victim to a dating app dupester.  
As an MBA who went to college on a soccer scholarship, her track record is one of bringing passion, grit and smarts to all her endeavors.   But despite having savvy in spades, it wasn’t enough to protect her when she unwittingly swiped right on the wrong profile. After discovering the deception in the most dramatic of ways and crying all the tears, Kalie realized she was not alone in suffering at the hands of bad players who falsely represent themselves online and that it was time to make Lemon Drops from the lemons life had served her. After doing research and being unable to find an easy-to-use, affordable consumer online identity check app, Kalie made her heartbreak actionable and the idea for Fuzzy Digital Gutcheck was born. 
After securing over seven-figures in investment and beginning development of SafeHer's patent pending Automated Deception Discovery technology, Kalie realized that not only do we need Fuzzy Digital Gutcheck to help us verify if someone is who they claim to be, but in an age where malicious use of AI has begun to outstrip human ability to detect it, whether you’re a major celebrity, a business leader, a parent or a college student making their first job application, we also urgently need a tool that alerts us to potentially damaging and unauthorized uses of our own name, image and likeness. This spurred her idea for the development of Fuzzy Digital Gutcheck’s companion application, the Fuzzy Watchdog platform, which is currently in closed Alpha testing.
As part of Kalie’s passionate commitment to digital safety advocacy, she has been invited to Washington, DC, to talk to members of Congress and advise on what changes could be made to legislation to better protect everyday folks from digital frauds and malicious impersonation and force big tech to take more action.
She has also been invited to speak as a panelist at Inc. Magazine’s Founder’s House at SXSW and was featured in its July 2025 edition. Additionally, Kalie has been covered in financial and tech focused media outlets including Cheddar TV and recently taped a network TV show featuring the Fuzzy software suite, which will release in Q1 2026.
Kalie’s podcast, Just Lookin’ Out, which covers these same themes, jumped into the top 200 of all relationship podcasts on Apple podcasts in its first season and its second season launched in September 2025.
