Emergency Response

Say it. Don't type it.

Reporting a problem now takes a voice message and photos, not just a text box. Speak into the page and the recording is transcribed, summarised for the operator triaging it, and dropped into the room your team is already listening to. The same controls appear on the incident response page mid-alert.

Record up to 110 seconds straight from the browser, with no app and no account
Every clip is transcribed automatically and summarised for the operator reading it
Voice messages land in your team's room as radio traffic, not in a queue nobody watches
On a live alert the recording is kept first and processed second, so nothing is ever lost

Emergency Response

The people who see it first don't work for you.

A public reporting page behind the same QR code your sign-up links already use. Anyone can report a chained fire exit, a broken barrier, or behaviour that worries them. You write the questions, and every report lands in a triage queue where your team sets priority and owner.

Public reporting on the page your QR codes already open, with no app and no account
You author the question set: categories, location, and anything else you need asked
Reports arrive in a triage queue with priority, owner, status, and a full activity trail
Priority is set by your team, never by the reporter, so the queue sorts by risk

Emergency Response

Live location. On an actual map.

During an incident, people who consent can share their position, and the incident map comes to life with live pings, movement trails, and a what3words square for every location. App users can share continuously in the background, with a pause control that is always one tap away.

Live pings and movement trails on the incident map as responses arrive
A what3words square for every position, ready to read aloud to responders
Continuous background sharing on iOS and Android, with a one-tap pause
Consent-first by design, with retention limits set per workspace

Messaging

Scan. Sign up. Never too late.

Public QR sign-up pages can now carry your brand: your logo, your colours, and your own consent wording. Joining mid-incident works too. Anyone who signs up to a targeted list during a live alert is enrolled, sent the alert, and added to the roster automatically.

Branded sign-up pages: your logo, accent colour, light or dark theme, and consent text
Reusable brand templates, one per venue, event, or campaign
Mid-alert sign-ups are enrolled and sent the live alert automatically
Late joiners appear on the roster with their own response link

Emergency Response

One tap says "I'm safe."

Every emergency alert now carries a personal response link. It opens in any browser with no app and no account, records a one-tap status reply, shares live location with consent, and displays operator updates the moment they are posted. Your dashboard tracks every reply in real time.

A personal link in every alert SMS that opens in any browser, with no app or account
One-tap status replies using your own question set and wording
Operator updates delivered to the page live, with a flash, a chime, and read receipts
Every response recorded on the accountability roster the moment it arrives

Messaging

Write it now. Send it Tuesday at 9.

SMS campaigns with scheduling and two-way replies. Compose a message to your recipient lists, schedule the send, and ask a question with keyword choices. Answers are tallied per person in your dashboard, and every campaign can be paused, resumed, or cancelled mid-send.

Campaigns to your recipient lists, sent immediately or at a scheduled time
Two-way by design: keyword-choice questions with per-person reply tracking
Pause, resume, or cancel a campaign at any point during the send
Fully separate from emergency alerts, so routine traffic never touches the life-safety path
