SensorySafe
Gentle Guides for the Sensitive Mind
Every product here is rated by autistic reviewers on the things that actually decide whether you can use it: how strong the smell is, how the surface feels, how loud the packaging is. Each score is a median from 1 to 10, not an adjective from a marketing team.
Seekers and avoiders, same filter
If you avoid a quality, set a maximum. If you seek it, set a minimum. Filters combine, so "softest blanket with no smell" is one question, and you get an honest answer or an honest empty result.
Unrated is not zero. If nobody has rated a product for scent, we leave it out of a scent filter rather than pretend it scored nothing.

- Seekers and avoiders need opposite filters
The same descriptor is a reason to buy for one person and a reason to avoid for another.
- What sensory tagging actually means
Why we rate intensity 1-10 per descriptor instead of writing 'gentle' on the label.
