GOES translates real-time environmental data, including weather, AQI, and terrain, into medically-validated risk intelligence for outdoor safety. The platform uses physician-designed algorithms to compound multiple signals against physiological thresholds, stratifying risks by severity. This results in actionable guidance, prevention tips, and treatment protocols delivered directly to users in any workflow.

Problem
When individuals venture into outdoor environments, they face the risk of injuries, illnesses, and natural disasters where immediate medical care is often delayed or unavailable. Traditional first aid knowledge may be insufficient to handle the specific challenges encountered in remote settings, and the lack of reliable communication can exacerbate the situation.
Solution
GOES Health provides a digital first aid guide designed by emergency medicine specialists to offer immediate medical guidance in outdoor environments. The mobile app delivers step-by-step medical protocols and critical information accessible offline, enabling users to respond effectively to emergencies when medical care is delayed or unavailable. It helps users prepare for outdoor activities by providing location-based environmental health risks, natural disaster alerts, and prevention tips. In emergency situations, the app supports self-assessment, scene evaluation, and prioritization of life-threatening injuries, offering simplified emergency response.
