Emergency Response Intelligence
Transform emergency calls into real-time intelligence
99now enables emergency services to receive live video, AI-powered scene analysis, and precise location data from any smartphone. No app required.
The Challenge
Emergency response was designed for 1937
The 999 system was revolutionary when introduced. Today, we carry devices with HD cameras, GPS, and AI capabilities—yet emergency calls remain voice-only, context-poor, and dangerously slow.
Audio-only communication
Callers must verbally describe complex emergency scenes while in distress. Critical visual information is lost, leading to incomplete situational awareness.
Location uncertainty
Verbal addresses are frequently incorrect or impossible to provide. Rural areas, motorways, and unfamiliar locations create dangerous delays.
Language barriers
Non-English speakers face life-threatening delays. Panic and shock impair communication even for native speakers.
Resource misallocation
Without accurate scene assessment, dispatchers send wrong units or insufficient resources. 23% of dispatches require reallocation.
Every minute without accurate information costs lives. In cardiac arrests, survival rates drop 10% per minute without intervention.
The Platform
Four integrated capabilities. One unified platform.
99now combines live video, artificial intelligence, precise geolocation, and intelligent dispatch into a seamless system that integrates with existing emergency infrastructure.
Live Video Streaming
Instant video connection from any smartphone via SMS link. No app download required. Dispatchers see exactly what callers see, in real-time.

Modern AI for critical moments
We're building on the latest advances in computer vision, speech recognition, and natural language processing to create tools purpose-built for emergency response.
Analyse video streams to understand what's happening—identifying vehicles, people, hazards, and environmental conditions in real-time.
Transcribe and translate speech across languages, helping dispatchers understand callers regardless of what language they speak.
Combine GPS data with visual cues to pinpoint locations accurately, even in areas without clear addresses.

How It Works
From call to dispatch in seconds
99now works invisibly in the background, dramatically enhancing every emergency interaction without requiring new hardware or caller training.
Emergency call initiated
Caller dials 999 as usual. The system integrates with existing infrastructure—no behavioral change required.
Smart link delivered
Caller receives SMS with secure one-tap link. Opening it connects their camera to dispatch instantly.
Live stream begins
Video and audio stream to control room. Dispatchers see exactly what the caller sees, in real-time.
AI analysis runs
Computer vision analyzes the scene. Speech is transcribed and translated. Location is pinpointed.
Optimal dispatch
AI recommends units with right equipment. Responders receive live feed en route, arriving prepared.
Who Benefits
Built for emergency services, designed for everyone
99now is designed to work with existing emergency infrastructure, benefiting both the services that respond and the people who need help.
How it helps you
No more describing your location
GPS and visual landmarks pinpoint exactly where you are—even on a motorway or in the middle of nowhere.
Show, don't tell
Instead of trying to describe a car crash or medical emergency while panicking, just show responders what's happening.
Help in any language
Real-time translation means you can get help even if you don't speak English. The AI translates both ways.
Responders arrive prepared
When paramedics or police see the situation before arrival, they bring the right equipment and know what to expect.
Use Cases
When every second matters
These are the moments where better information means better outcomes. Where seeing is faster than describing.
Road traffic collision
A witness calls 999 after seeing an accident. Instead of struggling to describe the location and severity, they tap a link and show dispatchers exactly what's happening. Responders see how many vehicles are involved and can assess injuries before arriving.
Medical emergency at home
Someone's family member collapses. The caller is panicking and can barely speak. With video, paramedics can see the patient, guide CPR in real-time, and arrive knowing exactly what equipment they'll need.
Lost in a rural area
A hiker is injured on a trail with no address or landmarks. GPS alone isn't enough. Visual recognition identifies nearby features, and What3Words integration pinpoints their location to within 3 meters.
