What it does
If you're an adult child helping your aging parents — and quietly drowning in paperwork, phone numbers, and things you're supposed to already know — this is for you. The First 72 Hours turns the vague, overwhelming job of "helping my parents" into a system you can actually follow: what to gather before an emergency, exactly what to do in the first 72 hours of one, and how to keep going without burning out.

You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1.
