Austin, Texas, July 3, 2019: Rally for Safety, the digital platform shepherding safety through connectivity, today announced the debut of its first wearable emergency alert button and mobile app.
The new platform aims at delivering safety and the ability to alert a user’s designated contacts, the powerful Rally community, and the authorities, said a company press release. The Rally for Safety app is available for download on the Apple and Android app store, and Rally’s wearable Bluetooth button that pairs with the mobile app is available for purchase through the Rally for Safety website and Amazon.
In order to reduce crime and engender confidence within its users, the Rally for Safety app features the on-demand Rally Community, GPS alerts to selected friends and family, signature Rally check-in alerts, and a premium service that includes 24/7 911 monitoring.
“We created this platform with our moms and sisters in mind. Empowering their safety through connectivity led us to create Rally, to help our users feel comfortable leaning on each other to limit risks and ward off dangerous behavior,” said Mike Murphy, co-founder of Rally for Safety, in a statement. “The button and app, when paired together, allow for an enhanced security option that aims to reduce attacks, rapes, active shooters, and other predatory events.”
Rally for Safety was founded by Mike Murphy and Chris Espe, both former U.S. Army Rangers now with more than 20 years of executive protection, bodyguard and special operations experience. Mike Murphy is a celebrity bodyguard keeping some of the most famous and influential people safe but his consistent concern for the women in his family and if they were safe was the true driving force behind Rally.
“The need to be connected to each other in the face of danger has never been more necessary,” said Chris Espe, co-founder of Rally for Safety. “Safety is at the core of our personal and corporate mission, helping the individual user alert their contacts and the authorities, should they sense danger.”
