Questions, answered.

Yes. Guardian is a working MVP with an Android app, Firebase backend, responder dispatch, live tracking, audio evidence capture, Safety Team workflows, admin controls and privacy/security protections.

A user triggers SOS from the app or the BLE wearable trigger. Guardian starts live location streaming, trusted-contact SMS with a live tracking link, audio evidence capture, nearby responder alerts, and a responder dashboard with map, distance, navigation, call, and share actions.

No. The wearable is only a fast trigger. The core product is the emergency response network: responder dispatch, live tracking, admin controls, safety workflows, and time-to-help data.

No. Guardian smart devices are not currently offered for sale. The present focus is the software response platform, controlled pilots and validation; production smart devices remain part of the later hardware roadmap.

Trusted contacts receive SMS with a live tracking link. Nearby community responders receive emergency alerts through the app. Official emergency services should be contacted directly by the user or responders during emergencies.

Guardian focuses on time-to-help: how quickly real nearby assistance can reach the person in danger, not only whether an alert was sent.

Yes. JayQora is preparing software-first pilots for colleges, companies and communities where responder coverage, time-to-help, retention and false-alarm rate can be measured with consented data.

Production Guardian Ring, live voice / walkie-talkie, ML-based distress detection, Bluetooth crowd-finding, ID / police responder verification, and richer authority dashboards are roadmap items, not current features.

Watch Me is an optional user-requested monitoring mode. Once accepted by an authorised JayQora Safety Team member, the team can monitor the journey, perform check-ins and escalate if the situation materially worsens until the user confirms safety.

Stationary SOS coverage expands approximately 1, 1.6, 2.6, 4.1, 6.6 and 10 km while avoiding repeat alarms to already-covered responders. Moving incidents can use a four-zone response model that follows the emergency.

No. Guardian Air Response is a post-pre-seed R&D concept for limited-zone, Safety-Team-authorised emergency evidence drones and would require aviation permissions and controlled validation before deployment.
