Help is Always within Reach.

The Halo Button is

Direct to 911 — no middlemen, no call centers. Direct to the people rushing to help you.

Private by design — the privacy cover keeps the camera hidden until you need it, and nothing activates until the button is pressed.

Always in one place — unlike a phone, it never moves, and never needs unlocked.

Home. Work. Everywhere in Between

Wherever there are people, there should be help.

An emergency can happen anywhere people gather — at home, at work, in the spaces a community shares. Cura puts a dedicated help button right there, so anyone can connect straight to 911 with one press. No phone to find, no app to open, no wondering how to reach help.

WHO IT'S FOR

Families

Most families rely on a cell phone in an emergency, but kids can't always find it, unlock it, or use it when it counts. The Halo Button is mounted, ready, and works for everyone — kids, their friends, visitors.

WHO IT'S FOR

Child Care Providers

A caregiver's attention is pulled in every direction. The Halo Button gives everyone in the facility a predictable, always-visible way to call for help — whether you're in the next room helping someone else, or you're the one who needs it.

WHO IT'S FOR

Independent Living

Independence means staying in your own space, on your own terms. The Halo Button makes that possible — mounted, always visible, always ready. Whether it's you or your spouse who needs help, one press connects directly to 911. No phone to find, no steps to remember.

WHO IT'S FOR

Babysitters

Your kids are in good hands — and now those hands have a direct line to 911. The Halo Button gives babysitters an instant, always-visible way to call for help without hunting for a phone, remembering the address, or trying to talk and help at the same time.

WHO IT'S FOR

College Students

Living alone for the first time, in a new place, without family down the hall. The Halo Button gives college students and young adults an instant connection to 911 that doesn't require finding a phone, remembering an unfamiliar address, or keeping it together under pressure.

WHO IT'S FOR

Living Alone

Living alone means there's no one to call for you if something goes wrong. The Halo Button changes that — mounted, always visible, always ready. One press connects directly to 911 with your location and household details delivered automatically.

WHO IT'S FOR

Visually Impaired

For people with low or no vision, finding a phone in an emergency isn't just difficult — it can be impossible. The Halo Button is designed to be found by touch, mounted in the same place every time, with a single tactile button that connects directly to 911.

One Press — Direct to 911

No unlock required — no passcode, no app, no steps. Get directly connected to emergency services at the press of a button.

Two Way Live Audio

2 way audio provides instant communication with dispatchers in an emergency.

Live Video

Dispatchers can see what's happening in real time, providing them crucial information.

Always in One Place

Unlike a phone that moves from your house, to a bag, to a car, the Halo Button is wall mounted so you always know where to find help.

Privacy is Non-Negotiable

Passive by design — nothing activates until the button is deliberately pressed. And every device ships with a privacy cover for added peace of mind.

Features that Save Lives

The Halo Button was created to do one thing and do it well — connect anyone to emergency help when seconds matter.

Straight to 911.
No middleman.
One press connects you directly to 911 — not a call center, not a monitoring service deciding whether to send help.
Straight to 911 — no one in between
Press the Halo Button and you're connected directly to your local 911 dispatch — the same people who send police, fire, and paramedics. There's no company in the middle deciding whether your emergency counts. One press, and help is already on the way.
- Direct to 911
- No call center
- Human-press
- Live connection
No monitoring company in the middle

Traditional medical-alert and DIY home security systems route you to a private call center first. That's an extra step, and extra seconds, before anyone who can actually help even hears about it.
- You press → 911 answers, not a middleman
- No screening, no “should we dispatch?” delay
- The people coming to help hear you first
A deliberate press, every time

The Halo only connects when a person presses it. That human-press design is what lets it go straight to 911 — and what keeps it dependable.
- Nothing dials on its own
- Works the same way for everyone in the home
- No phone needed to make the call
Why it matters

In an emergency, the shortest path to help is the one that saves the most time. Cura removes every step that isn't help.
Help arrives already knowing your home.
Your address, entry codes, who's inside, any medical notes, and more reach the dispatcher automatically¹ — before a word is spoken.
Help already knows where to find you.
The moment the Halo Button connects, your household details are already on the dispatcher's screen. So even if you can't speak — or don't know what to say — the people coming to help already have what they need.
- Auto-sent details
- Location
- Entry access
- Medical notes
Set it once, in the app
When you set up your Halo Button, you build a simple household profile. From then on it travels with every press — no forms to fill out in the moment.
- Home address and unit/entry details
- Who lives there and their ages
- Medical conditions, allergies, or notes you choose to share
Faster, calmer response
Dispatchers spend the first moments of most calls just gathering basics. Cura hands them over instantly, so the conversation starts with help, not questions.
- No fumbling for your address under stress
- Responders enter faster with gate and door codes
- Critical health info is there even if you can't speak
You control what's shared
Your profile is yours. Update it, trim it, or add to it anytime — you decide what dispatch sees.
The Cura app puts everyone's safety on one screen.
Set up household profiles, get notified the instant the button's pressed, watch and listen live, and cancel a false alarm from anywhere.
One press. A whole network responds.
911 gets the call. Your household knows. Trusted neighbors are notified. Everyone who can help, knows at once.
- Household profiles
- Instant alerts
- Live audio & video
- Remote cancel
Stay connected, wherever you are
Your whole household stays in the loop. Set things up, know the moment something happens, and step in from anywhere, even when you're not home.
- Household profiles
- Instant alerts
- Live audio & video
- Remote cancel
Know the instant it's pressed
The second someone presses the Halo Button, everyone you've added gets a notification, so no one's left wondering.
- Real-time alerts to every household member
- See who pressed it, and when
- Reassurance even when you're across town
Watch and listen, live
Open it and you're there. Live audio and video from the Halo Button, so you understand what's happening and can help however you're able.
- Live view the moment it activates
- Real-time audio and video
- Stay connected until help arrives
The closest help is often next door
911 is on the way, but neighbors are already here. Choose who gets notified, and the people nearest you can respond in the seconds that matter most.
- Opt-in notices to trusted neighbors
- Help that's already on your street
- You choose who's included, always
Where the life-saving things are
An EpiPen in the kitchen drawer. An inhaler upstairs. An AED down the hall. Tell us once, and we tell the people who need to know.
- Save the location of medications and devices
- Pushed to responders on the call
- Shared with neighbors, only if you choose
It only calls when you tell it to.
A privacy cover you lift, an adjustable 5–30 second countdown, and remote cancel — so an accidental press never reaches 911.
Built so it only calls when you tell it to
A direct line to 911 only works if it never cries wolf. The Halo has three layers of protection so accidental presses never become false alarms — and you stay in control the whole way.
- Privacy cover
- Countdown delay
- Remote cancel
- Full control
A cover you lift on purpose
The button sits under a privacy cover that has to be intentionally removed first. Everyday bumps, curious kids, and passing elbows won't set it off.
- Deliberate two-step action to activate
- Keeps the camera covered until you need it
- No accidental presses in daily life
A countdown before it connects
After a press, an adjustable countdown gives you a window to cancel — set it to whatever feels right for your home.
- Adjustable from 5 to 30 seconds
- Cancel right on the device
- Tune it to your household
Cancel from anywhere
Away from home when it goes off? Cancel or view from the Cura app in a tap.
- Remote cancel from your phone
- Clear a false alarm without a scramble
- Nothing reaches 911 unless it should
So simple, anyone can use it
No phone to find, no app to open, no code to remember. It works for kids, sitters, guests, and grandparents alike.
If you can press it, you can use it
The Halo Button does one thing, and it does it for everyone. No phone, no passwords, no learning curve — just a single button anyone in your home can reach for the moment they need help.
- No unlock
- No app to call
- Findable by touch
- Every age
Nothing to unlock or remember
No screen to swipe, no passcode, no app to open first. Removing the cover and pressing is the entire skill.
- No phone required
- No login or setup for the person pressing
- Works the same way every single time
For every person in the home
A child who can't find a phone, a sitter who doesn't know the address, a grandparent who won't wear a pendant — the Halo works for all of them.
- Kids and their friends
- Sitters, guests, and visitors
- Older adults living independently
- An adult in distress
Findable when it counts
Mounted in the same spot every day and built to be found by touch, it's easy to reach even in the dark or in a panic.
- Always in the same place
- Tactile, single-button design
- Usable with low or no vision
Designed to disappear. Built to be found.
It looks like it belongs on your wall — not like medical equipment — and mounts anywhere in minutes.
An ever-present guardian. Passive until it's not.
Most safety devices announce themselves — and remind everyone of the worst day that might come. The Halo is designed to blend into your home, so it feels like part of the room until the one moment you need it to stand out.
- Blends in
- No medical look
- Mounts in minutes
- One clear beacon
Made to belong on your wall
Clean lines, warm finishes, and a shape that reads as “home,” not “hospital.” Something you'll live with, not hide.
- Designed to look intentional, not clinical
- Finishes chosen to fit real homes
- No stigma, no reminder of frailty
Unmistakable the moment it matters
The same design that lets it fade into the background makes it impossible to miss when someone's looking for help.
- One known location, always
- Clear visual cue when active
- Everyone in the house knows where it is
Up in minutes
Mount it where help should always be — the kitchen, a hallway, by the door. No install crew, no wiring.
- Simple mount, no professional install
- Place it anywhere it's needed
- Connects over your home WiFi
Ready the moment you need it.
A rechargeable battery that won't die like a phone, a status light you can read at a glance, and clear video even in the dark.
Always ready, so you never wonder
A safety device is only as good as its readiness. The Halo Button is built to stay ready in the background — holding its charge, showing its status, and seeing clearly at any hour.
- Rechargeable
- Status light
- Night clarity
- Always on WiFi
A charge that won't quit on you
Unlike a phone that drains all day, the Halo Button is a dedicated device that holds its charge and stays ready. Recharge it rarely, rely on it always.
- Rechargeable, long-lasting battery
- Dedicated to one job, so it's always ready
Status you can read at a glance
A simple light tells you the Halo Button is on and ready — no guessing, no app check needed.
- Clear at-a-glance status
- Calm when idle, unmistakable when active
- Know it's ready without thinking about it
Clear, even in the dark
Emergencies don't wait for daylight. The camera stays clear in low light, so dispatchers can see what's happening at any hour.
- Low-light clarity
- Useful video day or night
- A full picture for responders

Help is always within reach.

What We Lost • The Landline

Help used to live in one place.

For generations, the family phone hung in one spot on the wall. It never moved, never died, never locked. Everyone — even the kids — knew exactly where to run for help. Then it left the wall, and took that certainty with it.

Why does it matter?
My smartphone does everything?

Phones move

When you need help the most, the last thing you need is not knowing which room you left your phone in.
Phones die

An empty battery at the worst possible moment means no way to reach help.
Phones lock

What was once "pick up the phone and dial 911" is now "I don't know the pascode"

The numbers tell the story.

95%

of parents rely solely on cell phones at home*

70%

of parents worry their child could not get help if they were incapacitated*

10%

of children K-5 are able to complete a 911 call**

Frequently asked questions

Answers about the Halo Button, reservations, and what ships today.

What is the Halo Button?

A wall-mounted device that connects directly to 911 with one press. No phone required to place a call. Just a button anyone in your home can reach for.

How does it work?

Mount it. Remove the cover. Press the button. You're connected directly to 911 — two-way audio and live video¹ with a dispatcher, no phone needed to place a call. Set it up once on your home WiFi and it handles the rest. That's it.

What does the $1 reservation get me?

Your $1 locks in your spot as a Founding Family member and secures early pricing before the Halo Button is available to the public. The device normally retails at $149 plus $99/year. As a Founding Family member you get it for $99 with the first year of subscription included. No further commitment until we ship this fall, and you'll be first in line when we do.

Does the Halo Button constantly record?

No. The Halo Button is completely passive until you press the button. Nothing is ever recording in the background. Every device ships with a physical privacy cover that blocks the camera when the button is not being used. Audio and video only activate the moment the button is pressed.

How much does the Halo Button Cost?

The Halo Button retail price is $179. But those who pre-order receive a discount + a free year subscription!
