RapidSOS

RapidSOS operates what it calls "the world's largest Safety Network," an intelligent safety platform that connects public safety agencies (911 / ECCs), enterprises, and hundreds of millions of connected devices to deliver AI-powered emergency detection, verification, and escalation for faster, more informed emergency response. RapidSOS exposes partner APIs so technology partners can send emergency-related information into the safety platform and public-safety partners can consume incident data, alongside products including Alerts and IAR (IamResponding). The developer documentation at developer.rapidsos.com is partner-login gated and RapidSOS does not publish an open OpenAPI specification. Backed by Insight Partners and Playground Global.

RapidSOS is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Emergency Response, Public Safety, Safety, and Emergency Data.

RapidSOS’s developer surface includes documentation, getting-started guide, signup flow, support, engineering blog, and 9 more developer resources.
