Evidence Pack

If an attack is detected or you press the SOS button while you’re on a Journey, Epowar instantly starts storing evidence. All the evidence is sent to the cloud, to ensure it is accessible even if your devices are lost or destroyed. Once your Journey has ended, the evidence is automatically compiled into an Evidence Pack, which is sent directly to your email.

An Evidence Pack includes:

  • Microphone recordings

  • Location data

  • Activity log

  • Vital sign and movement data

Automatic Attack Detection

The Epowar app can detect an attack automatically using the motion and heart rate sensors on smartwatches. The Epowar Automatic Attack Detection relies on an algorithm that was built, trained and patented by the Epowar co-founders.

Automatic Attack Detection is based on AI models that have been tested with a wide range of users.

The algorithm not only looks at heart rate, but also movement data. This way, the Automatic Attack Detection AI can accurately differentiate between an exercise, such as walking to running, and an attack.

The algorithm is extremely accurate, has been validated by medical professionals.

Automatic Detection

If an attack is detected while you’re on a Journey, the friends you selected to track your Journey will be alerted loudly, even if their phone is on silent or do not disturb.

The Epowar app will also immediately start recording evidence such as audio data, vital signs and detailed location data. These are stored safely in the cloud and emailed to you when the Journey is ended.

Instant Responses

For your safety, our algorithm is designed to be sensitive and avoid missing an incident.

We spent years refining the AI to reduce false alarms - so you can now feel confident that the app has a less than 2% false positive rate, but even if the algorithm does mistakenly think you’re under attack, your smartwatch will vibrate, and you can swipe “I’m OK” on your watch or phone before anyone is alerted.

False alarms?

No Smartwatch?
No Problem!

We have also changed the game of the SOS button!
You can alert your friends with or without a smartwatch whenever you feel unsafe by pressing the SOS button in the app or on the
lock-screen. You can also even press the SOS button when an attack was already detected to alert friends again.

What else is unique about us?

Never miss an alert

If your friend presses the SOS button or the app detects an attack, you WILL be alerted. The Epowar app even overrides your device’s silent / do-not-disturb modes, ensuring you never miss an emergency alert

You always have quick & discreet access to our one-tap SOS button while you’re on a Journey. The SOS button is accessible from the lock screen, notification centre, dynamic island & in the app.

This means you can access it with one tap, even if your phone is locked. You can also hide the SOS button while you’re on a Journey if you prefer more discretion
