Company mission
To deliver life-saving data directly to 9-1-1 and first responders.
Our take
Emergency response services currently act exclusively on information provided by phone calls. Callers are usually vulnerable and panicked, and this has a negative effect on the expression of important information to phone call receivers. In addition, America's 9-1-1 system was built for landline phones, making it nearly impossible to digitally send data to first responders.
RapidSOS builds tools that provide caller data to emergency services to help them assess situations and make decisions faster. The startup utilizes data from mobile devices, smart devices and security systems to gain valuable insights into users' location, medical history and more. This helps produce a general profile on a caller ID, providing valuable contextual information in emergency situations.
The company has raised substantial funding, the latest of which will help it expand operations and its development efforts. It continues to release new features and products, such as the first AI co-pilot for 911, and an intelligent safety platform for emergency responders. This demonstrates RapidSOS's commitment to further improving the value it supplies to its users.
