Pornography thrives in secrecy — and for millions of Christians, the shame of struggling alone is as devastating as the addiction itself. Covenant Eyes exists to break that cycle, giving individuals, couples, and families a relationship-first approach to overcoming porn through transparency, accountability, and genuine human connection.^1
At its core, the Victory by Covenant Eyes platform pairs proprietary AI-powered Screen Accountability with the power of a trusted ally. Victory Shield captures periodic screenshots from your devices, scans them for explicit content using AI, then blurs and sends them to an accountability partner you choose — a spouse, friend, pastor, or mentor. It's not surveillance; it's an invitation to walk in the light together. Beyond screening, the platform includes porn blocking across iOS, Android, Mac, and Windows, activity check-ins, counselor-reviewed mini-courses for men, women, spouses, allies, parents, and pastors, and a community feature connecting users with others on the same journey. All plans cover unlimited devices for up to 10 users within a family.^2
Founded by Ron DeHaas in 2000 in Owosso, Michigan, Covenant Eyes was born from both tragedy and conviction. In 1992, Ron lost his wife and two children in a car accident. Through that unimaginable grief, he felt God's presence in a way that transformed his life and birthed a passion for protecting families. When the internet arrived in his home, Ron saw the danger it posed to his new family and envisioned something beyond a simple filter — a tool that would build deeper relationships and teach accountability over shame. With the help of a tech-savvy young man from his church, he invented the concept of Internet Accountability. The company's name comes from Job 31:1: "I made a covenant with my eyes."^3
Now a 100% employee-owned company (ESOP since 2020), Covenant Eyes has helped over 1.7 million people and earned more than 67,000 combined reviews. Ron also founded Nehemiah Ministries, a 160-acre retreat and counseling center for pastors and missionaries, and has served as Chairman of the Board for the National Center on Sexual Exploitation.^3
Why Christians Love Covenant Eyes: "This software is great. Keeps myself and family out of the muck on the web. Transparency makes a difference!"^4 One family shared they've used Covenant Eyes for over 10 years: "I do not experience lags or slowing down as others have mentioned. Sometimes the software will flag innocuous things, but that is the point — to not miss something important... love that we can use this as a tool to help keep our family safe on the internet."^5 A Victory member named Samuel testified, "Thanks to the help of my allies through Covenant Eyes I have begun to retake control of my life from porn," while Nathanael shared, "I love personal accountability. It helps me by asking how I am doing every day to ensure I am not alone in this journey."^2
Beyond the app, Covenant Eyes offers STRIVE, a 21-day porn detox program for men, and Arise, a 21-day video-based program for women — both free and designed to build community around recovery.^1
