Personal alert system with real-time location. PanicButton SOS transmits an alert to a user-defined response group in under two seconds, with the exact position and without the phone making a sound. It is built for the critical interval: the time between an incident and the arrival of assistance. Personal, family and professional use. No cost, no ads, no subscription. HOW IT WORKS 1. Set up the response group: family, work team, field staff, or neighbours in the same area. 2. Members join by code or QR code, subject to approval by the group administrator. 3. When the button is activated, every member receives a priority notification with the sender's live location. FEATURES Discreet activation. The device sending the alert neither rings nor vibrates. Hardware trigger. Side button or Action button, without unlocking the screen or opening the app. Real-time location. Transmitted when the alert is activated, never before, with map tracking during the event. Priority delivery. The notification arrives even when the recipient has muted everything else. Automatic escalation. Absent a status confirmation, the system widens the notification according to the configured policy. Wellness checks. Periodic verification with an automatic notice when there is no response. Medical card. Blood type, allergies, medication and contacts, available during the event. Drill mode. Tests the full circuit without generating a real alert. Group administration. Adding, removing and approving members under the administrator's control. Multilingual coverage. Each recipient receives the alert in their own language. Trusted contacts. People who receive the notice even without belonging to a group. APPLICATIONS Night-time journeys and commutes home. Field work and shifts without direct supervision. Passenger transport and delivery. Shops and premises serving the public. Technical staff working in third-party homes. Older adults and people who live alone. Meetings with people not previously known. Security coordination among neighbours in the same area. Medical emergencies where the clinical record is decisive. PRIVACY AND DATA CONTROL Location is transmitted only when an alert is activated. There is no continuous tracking and no historical record of journeys. No data is sold and no advertising is shown. The account and all associated information can be deleted from within the app. DEPLOYMENT IN ORGANISATIONS Companies, cooperatives, municipalities and security providers can deploy PanicButton SOS as an alert system for their personnel, with managed groups and their own escalation protocols. Institutional enquiries: contact@atseacode.dev SCOPE OF THE SERVICE PanicButton SOS complements public emergency services and does not replace them.
