RelayVault is a dead man’s switch. You confirm you are okay on a schedule you set. Miss enough of them and it escalates — first to you, then to the people you trust, and finally it delivers the messages you left them.
Choose how often you confirm you are okay — daily, weekly, monthly — and how long RelayVault waits before treating a missed check-in as a problem.
Whatever needs saying if you cannot say it yourself. Stored encrypted, never shown in a list, and never sent while you are still checking in.
The people who should be told. They verify their own email or phone first, so nothing is delivered to an address that was never real.
Nothing is delivered because you were late once. Escalation runs in five stages, and you can answer at any point to stop it. These are the default timings — every one of them is yours to change.
Any Recipient you mark as trusted can confirm you are fine without an account, from the link they are sent. That pauses everything.
Most dead man’s switches are a timer you have to beat. Ours does not have to be. With the mobile app installed, RelayVault can take unlocking your phone, opening the app, or the step count it is already keeping as a sign you are fine — and count it as a check-in without asking you anything.
It is off until you turn it on, you choose which signals count, and every one that is used is shown to you by name. The point is not convenience. It is that the most likely way a switch like this fails is firing at someone who is perfectly fine and simply did not open their email.
