Built for Staff

Your staff downloads it.
Your whole team is on one map.

Staff install BuddySOS and join your group. When something goes wrong, one tap sends a live location to everyone in the group. Silently. No radio call. Works on the phone they already carry. Zero hardware. No IT.

One Tap

One Tap

Zero Hardware

No IT Required

Runs on the phone each staff member already carries. No installs by IT. No devices to manage.

How it works

From tap to coordinated response

Three steps. From the moment a staff member taps SOS, everyone in the group knows exactly where they are.

01

Staff member taps SOS

One tap sends an alert with their live GPS location to the rest of the staff group.

02

Team sees them on the map

Each member of the group sees the name, the pin, and the timestamp in their own BuddySOS app.

03

Whoever is closest responds

Teams coordinate over the group using live positions on the shared map. No separate dashboard. No extra hardware.

Built for the problem no one solved

The phones your staff already carry, connected.

A live group map and a one-tap SOS for your team. No new hardware to provision. No IT lift. Each person installs BuddySOS, joins your group, and they are on the team map.

FAQs

Questions ops leads ask.

What does the staff group do exactly?

A staff group is a BuddySOS group like any other. The difference is who is in it. Once a staff member installs the app and joins the group, they see the rest of the team on a live map and can fire a one-tap SOS that lights the team up with their location.

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 from inside the team.

Is hardware required?

No. Staff use their own iOS or Android phones. No radios. No beacons. No IT setup. You can deploy to a team of any size in an afternoon.

What does the SOS alert send?

The SOS sends the staff member's name and live GPS location to the rest of the staff group. The location keeps broadcasting after the screen locks, so the team can still find them if they can no longer interact with the phone.
