OUR STORY
Our story goes back over four decades to a night when our founder, a state trooper, realized the critical impact of an unasked question. Fueled by the urgency of seconds that could mean the difference between life and death, PowerPhone was born.
We’re not just a witness to the history of 911; we helped write it.
As the architects of police and fire dispatch protocols, we were the first to craft pre-arrival instructions that paved the way for the evolution of emergency call handling. Combined with EMD protocols, our decision support system transforms information into action, supporting call handlers and protecting responders. Every call. Every time.
We've equipped more than half a million professionals worldwide with the tools they need to serve their communities. Our training platform continues to be an ever-evolving gold standard.
Every second has a profound impact.
Every protocol, procedure and course crafted is a symphony of precision echoing the belief that seconds save lives. Like 911, our tools are not static. Regular updates and innovations keep our platform at the forefront of technology, ensuring that emergency responders always have access to the latest and most effective resources.
Founded by the frontline, powered by passion and expertise, we’re your partner at the intersection of technology and empathy that trusts, supports, and enhances the capabilities of those who answer the call.
For us, it’s not just a business; it’s a promise to make 911 better.
