Exciting News: CrimeAlert Featured in the Media!
Last week, I had the privilege of being interviewed by Aimee Shaw from Stuff, and today, the story is in the papers! 😊
The rural security side of my small business has truly found its niche, and I couldn’t be more excited about the progress we’re making. Our journey has been guided by one principle: listening to the market.
In response to a growing need for real-time, reliable local crime updates, we recently launched CrimeAlert.
We realised that while social media groups were helpful, critical information often got buried in the noise or arrived too late to make a difference.
CrimeAlert is a person-to-community incident reporting app that connects locals like never before. With instant mobile notifications, it empowers you to:
Secure your property before it’s too late.
Assist law enforcement by potentially witnessing related incidents and providing valuable information—our app even includes direct links to Police 105.
We also addressed a key concern: privacy. Unlike public forums, CrimeAlert ensures your identity is kept private and information is only shared with those who need to know.
Our mission is clear: reduce rural crime by equipping communities with the tools to act together. When communities unite, they’re an unstoppable force!
Please try CrimeAlert today! Download your free trial from Google Play or the App Store and join us in being part of the solution to rural crime.
Let’s make a difference—together.
North Canterbury business owner Steve O'Brien says he has ambitions to take his homegrown security app to other countries.
