FOR FIREWIRE AND INCIDENT ALERT ORGANIZATIONS NATIONWIDE
Don’t let the next alert
disappear in the feed.
When you report an incident, your community needs to know. RAVEN brings your updates to subscribers through push notifications, can publish to connected social channels in most cases, and can optionally send through an SMS provider such as Twilio.

THE PROBLEM WITH A SOCIAL-ONLY ALERT PAGE
One urgent update.
Then the feed moves on.
When an incident evolves, your audience needs a clear place to find the latest information. RAVEN gives you a destination and multiple ways to bring people back to it.
01Publish with a purposeBuild a consistent incident record your team can point back to.
02Make your name memorableSend readers to a site that carries your organization’s identity.
03Grow beyond one platformGive followers a direct route to your work beyond a scrolling timeline.
THE REACH BEHIND EVERY REPORT
Don’t just post it.
Get it in front of people.
RAVEN helps an incident reporting team connect the update, the audience and the places they already follow. You choose the channels that fit your organization.
Social publishing
In most cases, RAVEN can connect incident publishing to your social media presence, subject to platform support, account permissions and setup.
Keep the audience you have. Give them a direct path to your site.
SMS provider delivery
Want texts as another route? RAVEN can optionally push to an SMS provider such as Twilio when configured for your organization.
SMS provider usage and message fees are separate and are not included in the $99/month plan.
Delivery depends on subscriber settings, provider availability and connected account permissions. We confirm each organization’s configuration before launch.
