The Problem

Sound familiar? You're not alone.

Worrying about an aging parent living alone in Calgary

Daily phone calls are hard to schedule across busy lives

No reliable way to know something's wrong without constant checking

How I'm Alive Solves This

A simple solution that actually works.

One-tap daily check-in takes seconds from their routine

  • Calgary's booming population includes many solo professionals and retirees living alone

Frequently Asked Questions

I live alone and work from home in Calgary. Why do I need this?

Remote workers can go days without anyone noticing if something's wrong. A daily check-in ensures someone is alerted within hours, not days.

My parent lives alone in a Calgary suburb.

They check in once daily with one tap, and the free check-in reminds them if they're late. On Protect Me, you get escalating alerts if they miss it. Simple enough for anyone who can use a smartphone.

I go hiking and skiing in the Rockies on weekends.

Set your check-in for when you expect to be back. On Protect Me, if you miss it your contact is automatically alerted. Perfect for backcountry adventures near Banff and Kananaskis.

Calgary winters hit -30°C. What if I fall outside?

On Protect Me, if you're unable to check in due to an emergency your contact is alerted automatically. They can call you, your neighbors, or 911. Early detection in extreme cold can be lifesaving.

Is this free?

The daily check-in and reminders to you are free, with no ads or subscription. Family alerting on a missed check-in is part of Protect Me.
