I built this to help.
Built in-house. By a rider.
I'm Lance, founder of RiderSOS.
The idea came to me on my bike. I got home one day, was scrolling through TikTok, and it got me thinking: in an emergency, how does anyone actually get contacted?
We all know the risks that come with riding. I wanted something that would let my family be reached if something ever happened to me, because phones get smashed in accidents, and if I'm honest, I don't always carry my wallet either.
I've lost friends to motorcycle accidents. I know the risk. I'm not going to stop riding; I love it too much for that. But I do worry: if something happened, would my family know straight away? Would paramedics be able to find my contact details quickly enough?
That's what RiderSOS is built to solve. Emergency ID on your helmet, your keys, your wallet.
It's not only for the worst-case scenario, either. Your profile can hold your breakdown cover and insurance details too, and if you come off but you're okay, you can send your location straight to someone who'd want to know, so they can find you.
“If this helps one family make contact, or helps emergency services save a life, it's been worth building.”
