Longer-term plans

Ways to reach people wherever they are, through their radios and messaging apps or on a map of the area they are standing in.

Planned · Voice & radio

Radio bridge

Most sites will carry radios for years yet. The radio bridge brings selected channels from the radio system you already run into the whoot. voice rooms you choose, so radio traffic is heard on phones and desktops, recorded, transcribed and searchable beside everything else in the incident.

Listening comes first: radio traffic arrives in your voice rooms, and your handsets carry on exactly as they do today
You choose the channels and talkgroups, and the voice room each one lands in
Radio traffic is recorded, transcribed and placed on the incident timeline like any other voice
For radio systems your organisation runs and is authorised to monitor

Exploring · Voice & radio

Deployable radio network

For remote sites and crowded events where the mobile network cannot be relied on: handsets that work both as a radio and as a whoot. device, a repeater we bring to site and a satellite link back to your voice rooms, supplied and supported as one service.

Hybrid handsets: radio across the site, mobile data and Wi-Fi wherever there is signal
A deployable repeater with satellite backhaul, so the site is covered when the masts are full
Radio users and app users in the same voice room, each hearing the other
Recorded and transcribed like every other whoot. voice room

Exploring · Alerts & messaging

WhatsApp alerts and replies

Reach people on WhatsApp as well as by text. Alerts, updates and check-ins go out from a verified business sender, and replies land in the same shared inbox and on the same roster as every other response.

The same lists, consent records and opt-out handling as text
Tap-to-reply buttons for the answers that matter: safe, or need help
Text stays as the fallback, so nobody is missed
Not a group chat: every message is addressed to one person, delivered and accounted for

Planned · Incident response

Talk to an area

Draw a shape on the live incident map and talk to everyone inside it. The map already lets an operator text the people in an area, and this adds voice.

Circle a stand, a gate or a car park and open a voice room with the people there
Tap one person on the map to speak to them directly
Reaches everyone in the area who has the app, while the text still goes to everyone else
Every conversation recorded against the incident

Now

Work is under way.

Venues in the mobile apps: Declare an alert for a particular venue from your phone. Pick the venue you are standing in, and the alert goes to that venue's own lists and voice rooms, exactly as it does from the dashboard.; Incident response

Designed and scoped, but work has not started.

Tasks on the event schedule: Attach tasks to a stage of the event schedule and they run when it starts: switch on staff location sharing as the gates open, text a list before kick-off, send each role its briefing ahead of the event.; Incident response
Muster zones and automatic counts: Draw muster points and danger areas on the venue map. People are counted in as they arrive, and anyone still inside a danger area is flagged on the roster.; Incident response
Two-way voice on the response page: Someone holding only a text link can already send a voice message to the control room. Next the control room can answer them, and then hold a live conversation, with no app and no account.; Incident response

Later

Being researched, and may change or not ship.

One-at-a-time talk mode: Limit a voice room to one speaker at a time, as a radio channel does. This suits noisy sites, large voice rooms and teams moving over from radio.; Voice & radio
Noise suppression for loud sites: Stronger on-device noise suppression for a steward standing beside a stage, a generator or a crowd.; Voice & radio
Message translation: Messages translated for teams that work in more than one language, and labelled so everyone knows they are reading a translation.; Voice & radio
PA and display screens: Carry an alert's wording to the venue's PA system and its public display screens, for people who are not holding a phone or sitting at a computer.; Alerts & messaging
Rich messaging (RCS): Verified sender branding, read receipts and tap-to-reply buttons inside the message itself, with text as the fallback.; Alerts & messaging
Neighbour alerts: A declared incident can warn neighbouring venues and organisations that have agreed to hear from you.; Incident response
Drill planner: Schedule drills, remind the people responsible, and file each drill's record with the venue's evidence pack.; Incident response
Say it, pin it: Name a place out loud, "north gate" or "block C", and the map drops the pin using your venue's own vocabulary.; Intelligence
Microsoft Teams and Slack: Post alerts, incident updates and issue reports into the channels your office teams already watch.; Integrations
Events API and outbound webhooks: Subscribe your own systems to voice room activity, reports and incident events. Alert webhooks and the Management API are already live, and this extends what they cover.; Integrations
Policies by person and group: Set recording, retention and access rules for a person or a group, not only for a voice room.; Platform & security

Procedures and action cards: Keep your own wording for evacuation, invacuation, lockdown and communication. Each alert shows every role the few lines that apply to them, and a record is kept of which version was in force.; Incident response
Procedure briefings: Put a published procedure in front of the people who hold each role before anything happens, by app, text or QR code, and record who confirmed they had read it.; Incident response
Video on reports and response pages: Reporters and responders can attach video from any phone. Speech in the clip is transcribed for the operator reading it.; Incident response
