Company mission
RapidDeploy's mission is to save lives by reducing response times.
Our take
In the US, emergency responders are constantly looking for ways to decrease response times, but the fragmented nature of the American emergency response service can make this difficult. RapidDeploy provides dispatch technology and analytics to 911 centers, using new mobile technology to improve communication with responders, and help them get to those who need help more quickly.
RapidDeploy's system includes RadiusPlus, a mapping platform that aggregates data to help centers determine locations and assess situations; Eclipse Analytics, that helps triage emergencies so the best response can be identified; and Nimbus CAD that identifies who should be called. In addition to this, a partnership with Rave Mobile Safety saw the introduction of the "Rave Panic Button", which can be installed by institutions to provide first responders with critical information and improved communication options.
RapidDeploy has recently raised significant funding that will help consolidate its position and accelerate go-to-market initiatives. As the only truly open integrated response platform, it remains for now unchallenged in the space - serving 10 state-wide contracts and over 1,500 911 centers.
