How it works

From tap to responder — in seconds, transparently.

1

You tap SOS

Your location, profile, and emergency contacts go straight to our 24/7 control room.

2

Dispatcher calls + verifies your safe-word

A trained dispatcher calls within seconds. You confirm your safe-word — or trigger duress by deliberately saying the wrong one.

3

Certified responder dispatched

In supported regions, armed response rolls.

4

Track the responder live

See the vehicle on your map. Get ETA. Your family circle is notified. Audit trail logged.

Smart routes. Real responders. Real-time safety.

Three core pillars, designed to work together — for safer journeys, wherever you go.

🛰

Predictive safety navigation

Real-time crime hotspots overlaid on your route. Predictive AI suggests safer detours before you reach danger. Drive, walk, or cycle — every path weighed by risk.

🆘

One-tap SOS

Press once and your location, profile, and emergency contacts go straight to a 24/7 control room. Trained dispatchers call you and verify your safe-word before any responder rolls. Available in supported regions.

👨‍👩‍👧

Live family tracking

See your family on a live map. Geofence alerts when kids arrive at school. Meeting check-in for first dates, taxi rides, or anywhere you want a safety net. Silent duress trigger.

The Verified Crime Incidents Map

Every report is vetted by our AI confidence-scoring layer before it hits the map. Official records, community contributions, and partner data — all weighted by reliability. You see real, verified incidents, not noise.

See it in action.

Straight from the Safer City GO app — the live crime map, one-tap emergency dispatch, and safety in your own language. Real screens, real data.

CPF Camera Network

CPF cameras, plugged into the Safer City LPR/ANPR network.

We partner with Community Police Forums to roll out CPF-branded cameras across South Africa's neighbourhoods — then link every one of them to the wider Safer City LPR/ANPR network so the positive alerts for wanted vehicles they capture become live intelligence, not idle footage.

Every plate is read in real time, checked against Police and Partner watchlists, and the hits flow back to the CPF, partner armed-response companies, and the Law Enforcement workflows we're integrated with. The same network gives consumer-app users our route-safety scoring and dispatcher-led SOS situational awareness when a crime event happens near a covered pole.

Live 24/7

Real humans on the other end.

When you tap SOS, your map lights up in a control room staffed by trained dispatchers — multi-screen ops, live partner CCTV feeds, certified responders on dispatch radio. Not a chatbot. Not a queue. A person, on a headset, watching your map.

Tour the control room →
Responder network

Wheels, wings, and a radio.

Safer City GO routes your SOS to certified medical, armed-response, and air-ambulance partners. Netcare 911's fleet covers fixed-wing air evac, ground ambulances, and fast-response vehicles — one of the deepest medical response networks in Southern Africa.
