A built-in safety net.

So nothing important goes unsaid.

Family and emergency planning

Leave practical instructions, contact details, or documents for the people who would need them first.

Travel, solo routines, or health risks

Keep a lightweight safety net in place when regular check-ins matter but you do not want extra friction in daily life.

Account, estate, and handoff details

Prepare next steps, document locations, or account instructions without sending them too early.

Frequently asked questions

AreYouAlive is a dead man’s switch service. We check in with you on a schedule you choose, and if you stop responding, your pre-written messages are delivered to the people you’ve chosen.
We send you a check-in by SMS or email at your scheduled time. You reply, and your timer resets. If you do not respond within your configured response window, your delivery plan begins.
Premium users can customize how often AreYouAlive checks in and choose the schedule that works for them. Free users start with the default schedule (monthly on the first day of the month).
By default, you have 24 hours to respond before AreYouAlive begins your delivery plan. Premium users can customize this window.
If you miss a check-in, AreYouAlive starts the delivery plan you set up in advance. Messages with no delay are sent right away, while delayed messages stay queued until their scheduled delivery time.
If you’ve added delivery delays, you can stop any unsent messages by acknowledging the missed check-in. Messages already sent can’t be recalled.
Everything works through SMS and email, so there is nothing to download.
Yes. Your data is protected in transit and at rest, and your messages are only delivered according to the rules you configure. You can also enable end-to-end encryption for individual messages — when enabled, not even AreYouAlive can read them before delivery. End-to-end encryption requires the recipient to at least have an AreYouAlive free account.
