Your staff downloads it.
Your ops lead sees everyone.
Staff install BuddySOS and join your group. Operations leads receive live GPS for every team member plus instant SOS notifications — even during network congestion when standard comms fail.
From tap to coordinated response
Three steps. Under two seconds end-to-end. Every move logged automatically.
Staff member taps SOS
One tap sends an instant alert with GPS location — works even when calls and texts are unavailable.
Ops lead gets the alert
Name, GPS pin, and timestamp arrive in under 2 seconds on the live ops dashboard.
Respond and coordinate
Teams respond using real-time positions. Every incident is timestamped and auto-logged.
Consumer safety apps weren't built for festivals.
BuddySOS was purpose-built for high-density crowds, congested networks, and the moments when getting separated means something. Zero hardware. No IT required.
Your entire staff team. One live map.
Deploy to security, medics, and volunteers in minutes. No hardware. Organizers see every staff cluster in real time. Every incident auto-logged.
100+ countries. One safety layer.
From international peace marches to destination events across continents. Local hosts see their cluster, global organizers see everything.
SOS keeps working after you lock your phone.
Tap SOS and lock your screen. Location keeps broadcasting to your group in real time. Built for situations where using your phone puts you at risk.
Every incident, auto-logged.
Walk into your post-event review with a complete audit trail. Insurers, sponsors, and venues all see the same story you do.
Questions ops leads actually ask.
Will it work when the network is overloaded?
Yes. BuddySOS uses lightweight data packets built for congested environments. SOS alerts and GPS pings are optimized to push through when standard messaging apps fail.
How long does staff onboarding take?
About 90 seconds per person. Staff download the app from iOS or Android, then join your group with a code or invite link. No accounts to provision, no hardware to ship.
What kinds of events is this for?
Festivals, music venues, corporate events, sporting events, and campus programs — anywhere staff are spread across a venue and need to be locatable plus reachable in an emergency.
What gets logged?
All SOS alerts, GPS positions, responder actions, and timestamps are captured automatically. Post-event reports include incident counts, response times, and a full audit trail.
Is hardware required?
No. Staff use their own iOS or Android phones. No radios, no beacons, no IT setup. You can deploy to a 200-person team in an afternoon.
