The Problem of Delayed Awareness

When someone is alone,
and something goes wrong,
time and uncertainty are often the most influential variables in the outcome.

Problems can go unnoticed for hours or days, especially when no one is actively checking in and long gaps in communication are normal.

Many emergencies don't begin with a clear distress signal. Often, they begin with silence — an unexplained absence or an unanswered call.

Without a defined expectation in place, those moments of uncertainty can stretch on, delaying awareness and response when time matters most.

The SoloWise Solution:
Simple Safety Check-ins

SoloWise is designed to reduce delays in awareness and response by others.

SoloWise works on pre-planned expectations about your check-in time and location.

Instead of tracking your every movement or requiring you to actively raise an alarm, SoloWise simply establishes when and where a check-in is expected.

The system is intentionally quiet when things go right. No notifications are sent, and no one is disturbed, as long as you check in on time.

SoloWise treats a missed check-in as a meaningful signal, escalates automatically by alerting the people you've chosen, and shares the crucial context they need to respond effectively.

This approach ensures early awareness while keeping your privacy — and the privacy of your contacts — at the forefront. SoloWise helps reduce delays without adding friction to everyday life.

The SoloWise Process

1

It's Easy

Set a check-in time and choose who should be notified if you don't check in as expected. This creates a clear expectation with SoloWise, without requiring anyone to actively monitor your activity.

2

It's Unobtrusive

Go about your day or activity as planned. No need to constantly interact with the app. As long as you check in on time, nothing else happens. No alerts are sent and no one is disturbed.

3

It's Automatic

If you miss a check-in, SoloWise automatically notifies your selected contacts and shares the context they need to respond. It's a process intended to reduce delays when time matters.

Key Capabilities

SoloWise is built to work in real-world conditions, where connectivity, personal attention, and circumstances aren't always ideal. Its core capabilities are designed to run quietly in the background and activate only when a check-in is missed.

Each capability supports the same goal: reducing delays in awareness and response.

Server-based alerts: SoloWise doesn't rely on your phone or its connection to send its alerts to your contacts.
Automatic escalation: If you miss a check-in, SoloWise automatically notifies your emergency contacts.
Emergency SOS Button: Alert your contacts when you need help right away, even outside of a scheduled check-in.

Crucial Context sharing: SoloWise is designed to share the critical information your contacts need to understand the situation.
Reusable profiles: Save the information about your kids, pets, and vehicles that commonly accompany you.
Optional Location Tracking: Your privacy comes first — you get to choose exactly where and when your location is saved.

Trust & Responsibility

SoloWise is not designed to protect users from danger, prevent accidents from occurring, or replace emergency services. Its purpose is to reduce delays and uncertainty by helping ensure emergencies are noticed when you're on your own.

The system is intentionally restrained. It doesn't track constant activity, and it doesn't generate alerts when everything is going as planned. By focusing on pre-scheduled expectations and context, SoloWise supports timely awareness and informed response.
