Hibou: A Way to Connect and Protect Our Families
Hibou is crafted to enhance your safety while fostering social connections, allowing you to live life to the fullest with peace of mind. With over two decades of expertise in lone worker technology and healthcare services, Hibou was born from a deep passion for enriching lives. It keeps you safe and keeps your family informed, ensuring they know your status whenever you embark on an activity.
Leveraging GPS technology and built-in timers, Hibou enables you to engage in all the activities you cherish without worry. Whether you're climbing a mountain in your backyard, skiing for the afternoon, or traveling the world, Hibou supports your adventures. Simply activate the activity button in the app, set the timer for the expected duration (up to 24 hours), and proceed with your activity. Upon your safe return, end the timer. If you're running late, you can easily extend the timer with a single button press.
In situations where you find yourself in distress and unable to seek help, Hibou is there for you. If your timer expires, notifications are sent to your pre-determined contact list, informing them that you're overdue and providing your last known location. This ensures that help is dispatched promptly.
Hibou also offers a daily automated wellness check service, giving your loved ones reassurance about your well-being. At scheduled times once or twice a day, you'll report your status using the app, website, or phone system. If you miss a scheduled check-in, you'll receive reminders via app notifications, emails, and phone calls. After a grace period and additional reminders, your circle members will be notified if you fail to report.
Additionally, Hibou features a help button that, when pressed, immediately sends a notification and your GPS location to your contact list. While calling 9-1-1 is crucial in emergencies, alerting your family and friends can often be the most appropriate initial response.
