Zich is designed around a single idea: you shouldn't need a calm mind or a free hand to get help. Here's the full sequence, end to end.
This could be a hands-free activation (a gesture, a button combo, or a spoken cue), a missed check-in on a safety timer, or — as the platform's AI and wearable integrations mature — a pattern Zich recognises as distress.
There's no need to unlock your phone, find the right app, or type anything. Activation happens in the background, so it works even when you're restrained, injured, or simply out of time.
Your real-time location becomes visible to the trusted contacts you've chosen in advance — updating continuously for as long as the situation lasts.
Zich decides who to notify and in what order, based on the workflow you've set up — a partner first, then family, then a wider circle if no one responds.
If your first contact doesn't respond, Zich moves to the next one on the list — and the next — without you needing to manage any of it in the moment.
Every alert can be cancelled, every share can be ended, and nothing leaves your phone that you haven't configured Zich to send.
Each step above is powered by one or more of these — designed to work together, not as separate switches you have to remember.
Set up a trigger that doesn't rely on unlocking your screen or opening an app.
Start a countdown for a walk, a ride, or a date. Miss the check-in, and Zich takes over.
Precise, continuously updating location, shared only with people you've chosen.
A prioritised list of contacts, notified in sequence until someone responds.
Rules that decide how and when alerts fire, so you don't have to think it through mid-emergency.
A realistic incoming call you can trigger discreetly to leave a situation on your own terms.
