Real responses, rapid aid, informed responders. Onslow Priority connects the people, the equipment and the responders who are already closest, so help starts while the crew is still on the way — and nobody faces an emergency alone.
Three things decide the first minutes of an emergency: who is already nearby, what is near them, and how much the responding crew knows before it arrives. Everything the platform does serves one of those three.
Trained bystanders nearby, alerted for rapid lifesaving medical and rescue emergencies to prevent loss of life.
The incident, the resources and the route, on one map.
One shared record that callers, bystanders, dispatchers and responders all read and add to at the same moment — text, photo, video and voice — so what any one of them knows reaches everyone working that call.
Pioneered by Cameron Anderson, Nathan Davis, Kaleb Wiseman and Court Yarnoz.
An emergency is decided in the minutes before a professional crew arrives. Somebody is already standing there. Somebody close by is trained. The defibrillator, the naloxone and the bleeding-control kit are often a few hundred feet away — behind a counter, in a truck, on a wall in the next room. What is missing is not equipment, training or willingness. It is connection: nobody knows a call has gone out, nobody knows who is close enough to help, and nobody can find the equipment that would change the outcome.
Most places do not fail for a lack of help. They fail because the help is scattered — a pantry here, a shelter there, a responder who cannot see either. This platform carries them in one place, hosts their pages, and connects the systems they already use, without taking those systems away from them.
Nonprofits, faith and volunteer groups, food programs and outreach services each get a page that says what they do, who is eligible, where they are and how to reach them — rather than being rediscovered during every emergency.
Agencies, fire and EMS, law enforcement, emergency management, hospitals and county departments are carried on the same platform and in the same directory, so a responder and a neighbor are looking at the same list.
An organization's public page, its resources and its aid board are hosted here. Nobody has to run a server, buy a certificate or maintain a website to be reachable when it matters.
Where an agency already has a CAD, radio, paging or records system, that system is joined to the platform on the agency's own terms — switch by switch, with everything off until they turn it on.
Nothing on an organization's page is published until it has been reviewed and confirmed, and an organization can always take its own page down. Joining an agency's system is a decision the agency makes in its own portal — this platform never reaches into a system nobody has authorized.
Call volume spikes, and a low-priority call can sit while every dispatcher is on a line. Instead of a ringing phone, the caller can be sent an adaptive triage link: it asks whether they need Police, Fire or Ambulance, then walks them through the questions that belong to that need and files the result as a structured call. A dispatcher sends it by hand, or the board hands it over automatically for calls that are still unassigned.
It is free to send and free to use — a link, the device's own speech, and the app's own intake. Nothing about it replaces 911, and the page says so on every screen: a life-threatening emergency is still a 911 call, made while the form is filled in rather than instead of it.
Our mission is to provide readily available rapid aid, mapped emergency resources and live information in an emergency: alerting trained bystanders, guiding them to the equipment a community already owns, and giving responders live prehistory, context and updates through video, audio, photo and text — so a response begins with what is already known instead of what has to be asked again.
Open any section to read it in full — the details, the screens and the guides that go with it.
The call itself — how it is taken, worked, shown and shared.
Resources, responders and the guidance that runs beside them.
Modelling, dispatch support and what a deployment asks of an agency.
For the organizations that run, fund and staff a response.
What is protected, what is claimed, and where the edges are drawn.
A community's missing link between the first minute of an emergency and the arrival of a professional crew.
The published figures behind the mission.
An emergency is decided in the minutes before a professional crew arrives. Somebody is already standing there. Somebody close by is trained. The defibrillator, the naloxone and the bleeding-control kit are often a few hundred feet away — behind a counter, in a truck, on a wall in the next room. What is missing is not equipment, training or willingness. It is connection: nobody knows a call has gone out, nobody knows who is close enough to help, and nobody can find the equipment that would change the outcome.
It is not tied to one town or one county: a department, agency or community anywhere in the country or the world can run it. Residents are never charged. Departments pay for the parts they use, and donations let us put more resources into a community that could not otherwise afford them.
