About ROAR For Good

We're dreamers with purpose and a passion for creating a safer world using innovative patent-pending technology. Our vision is to cultivate safer workplaces, starting within the hotel industry. The statistics are horrific - 58% of housekeepers experience sexual harassment. They tend to be women of color and immigrants. Every day they go to work, they put themselves at risk.

When we started in 2014, we built the premier safety wearable on the market (aka panic button). We've leveraged our personal safety experience and BLE expertise to buildAlwaysOn™, which is a staff safety platform that protects staff no matter where they are. This device provides peace of mind to employers and staff alike. AlwaysOn™utilizes Bluetooth devices for emergency alerts and room level location identification.
