Almost Dawn is a check-in. Five levels, plain language. If things get bad, the people you chose — your Lights — get a notification. That's all it does.
Five levels. "I'm okay" all the way to "In crisis." You pick the one that's true.
At level 3 and above, the people you trust get a push notification. They can call or text you directly.
Someone you care about needs support right now.
After you check in, the app shows the plan you wrote for yourself. A breathing exercise, someone to call, whatever you decided when you were feeling clear.
Four things, and that's it.
Inhale 4, hold 7, exhale 8. An animated circle walks you through it, even when you can't think straight.
Add a private note to any check-in. End-to-end encrypted. Your Lights see your level, never your words.
You decide what shows up at each level. A breathing exercise at 3, a phone number at 4, the 988 lifeline at 5.
Your last two weeks, shown as colored dots. Good for spotting patterns, or showing a therapist what's been going on.
You pick who they are. A friend, your mom, your therapist. If you check in at level 3 or higher, they get a notification. That's the whole idea.
You're her Light too.
Almost Dawn is launching soon. Leave your email and we'll let you know.
