How It Works

Compose once, reach everyone.

In an emergency, the last thing staff should fight is the tool. Write the message once, pick who needs it, and the platform handles every channel, every language, and the paper trail.

01

Compose & approve

Write once from a template or scratch. Route through chain-of-command sign-off when policy requires it or send instantly when it doesn’t.

02

Target the right people

Send citywide or draw a geo-fence around the affected area. Residents opt in by neighborhood, so only those impacted get the 3am alert.

03

Deliver everywhere at once

SMS, email, website banner, and social. Fired simultaneously. Translated and ADA-optimized automatically.

Ready for Any Scenario

The alerts a community can't afford to miss.

Pre-built templates and delivery rules for the situations cities face most. So in the moment, staff aren’t writing from a blank page.

Severe weather

Tornado, flood & winter warnings with auto-pull from NWS feeds.

Boil-water notices

Utility advisories with affected-area maps and all-clear follow-ups.

Road & lane closures

Construction and incident closures pushed to web and navigation.

Public safety

Shelter-in-place, evacuations, and AMBER alert relays.

Service disruptions

Outage and missed-pickup notices targeted by neighborhood.

All-clear updates

One tap closes the loop and notifies everyone who got the alert.

Two Views, One System

Calm for staff. Clear for residents.

“From the first moment we met with City of Anywhere, it was a great experience! They go beyond their job description and are always just a phone call or text away. This is the best website the city has had to date.”
