Alive – Silent safety check-ins for people living alone

Summary: Alive is a lightweight safety status tool that enables solo dwellers to set daily silent check-ins via a timer. If check-ins are missed, it automatically emails tiered alerts to emergency contacts without tracking location or requiring sign-up, ensuring privacy and minimal permissions.

What it does

Users set a check-in timer and tap once daily to confirm their status. If the timer expires or check-ins are missed, Alive sends automatic email alerts with recent status updates to emergency contacts based on customizable tiers.

Who it's for

Alive is designed for individuals living alone who want a discreet safety check-in system without intrusive tracking or complex setup.

Why it matters

It provides an invisible safety layer that alerts contacts only when needed, balancing privacy with emergency responsiveness.
