PubSafe SOS Public Safety App for PC

PubSafe is the next generation platform for people to help each other and for NGOs to aid people and animals in need. PubSafe is about helping those around you.

The data used is controlled by you. PubSafe has many features used for sharing information and safety. You choose what to share and for how long. You can go "invisible" from all members, a team, or organization, at any time. You are in control.

**Data is never sold or shared with 3rd party marketing companies. We want to reduce suffering globally.**

Coordinate with family, friends and your community by sharing information in real-time, to save lives, property and animals or just offer a routine helping hand. Help others with a flat tire, recover from a hurricane, shovel snow, jump start a car, share wildfire info, etc.

NGOs, FBOs, CERTs and global organizations can use the PubSafe app and web portal to track relief teams around the world. Go invisible to general members and be only visible to your organization, or just be visible to an app-to-app team. Register your organization today at

During disasters like a hurricane, anonymized tracking data will be used for Public Benefit Research to study evacuation routes, asset positioning in relation to help requests, social equitable resource distribution, types of help needed, geographic based data, and more. Data can aid in a future response in order to be more efficient and less expensive.

PubSafe works globally where cell phone internet coverage is available. Visit www.PubSafe.net for more details.
