Nationwide Exposure Risk Notification Platform

Wehealth uses a combination of on-device detection, user self-reporting and data integration with sensors and trusted sources of information to quickly and anonymously inform users of their risks. It provides personalized recommendations and connects people to local resources for preparation, mitigation and treatments. Wehealth is built from the ground up to individually support all 3,100+ counties, territories and tribal nations in the US, giving full control of the messaging, resourcing and reporting to every community. It enables frictionless collaboration and nationwide coordination while offering full customization for each community's unique needs.

App

The ‘Wehealth Notify’ app was originally built to notify people of possible exposure to COVID-19 and help everyone keep up with the current CDC COVID-19 level in their community. It’s the official digital contact tracing solution for the State of Arizona and works nationwide. It now also supports environmental hazard notifications from the National Weather Service. It supports integration with environmental sensors and RF hardware to enable a decentralized, anonymous peer-to-peer data sharing platform.
