August 2026
Contractors on site for a week. Stallholders at a market. Volunteers, visiting crews, the venue next door. When something happens, these are exactly the people you need to reach, and exactly the people who were never onboarded into anything. A QR code on a poster fixes that: scan it, enter a name and a mobile number, and you're on the alert list. Done.
Those sign-up pages can now look like yours. Brand templates put your logo, your accent colour, your organisation name, and your own consent wording on the page, in a light or dark theme, so the poster at the gate and the page it opens both belong to your event, not to us. Keep one template per venue or per campaign and attach it to each link as you create it.
We have also closed a long-standing gap in this flow. Alert recipients used to be fixed at the moment an alert went out, so the person who scanned the poster two minutes into an evacuation joined a list, heard nothing, and was invisible to the very incident they were standing in. Not any more. Join a targeted list during a live alert and you are enrolled, sent the same alert text as everyone else, and placed on the accountability roster with your own response link, automatically and within moments.
One QR code, printed once, now covers the whole story: routine updates on a normal day, and a lifeline on the worst one.
What a sign-up link does before, during, and after an incident.
Automatically texting people during a live emergency is a feature that has to know its own limits. The common case, one person scanning a poster or an admin adding a single contractor, is instant, because during an evacuation it has to be. A bulk import mid-alert is a different act with a different failure mode, so past a threshold you set, whoot. stops enrolling and asks an operator to confirm instead. The wrong list picked in a hurry stays a near-miss, not a headline.
