Three simple steps

Quiet at first. Quick when it counts.

Holo Alert stays out of the way until something changes. The moment it does, three things happen, fast.

01

The moment it happens.

A sudden fall or a press of the button. The device picks up the signal in an instant and opens a line to help, even when you can't speak.

Alert detected
02

A real voice, right there.

A trained Canadian care team member speaks with you through the device. Calm, attentive, and ready to act on what they hear.

Two-way voice
03

The right kind of help.

A quick call to a loved one, or an ambulance dispatched to your door. The response matches what the moment actually needs.

Help on the way

What you get

Everything you need is included from day one.

No upsells for the safety features that should already be standard. Fall detection, monitoring, and Canada-wide coverage are part of every plan.

24/7 Canadian monitoring

Trained operators in centres across Canada follow established emergency response protocols, day or night.

Automatic fall detection

Included on every device, every plan. The device senses a fall and calls for help even if you can't.

One-press SOS button

Hold the button for a few seconds and a real person is on the line through the device's two-way speaker.

Coast-to-coast cellular

Works anywhere in Canada with cellular service. No Wi-Fi, smartphone, or landline needed.

Location services

Operators can locate the device when it matters most, indoors or out, on the go or at home.

Shower-safe by design

IP67 water resistance means you can keep it on through the shower, the dishes, the rain.

Magnetic charging

A simple magnetic cradle. Set it down at night, pick it up in the morning. No fiddly cables.

Proudly Canadian

Holo Alert is a Canadian company. Our monitoring centres are here, our team is here, our coverage is here.

A day with Holo Alert

Quiet in the background. There when you need it.

Holo Alert is designed to fade into your routine, then move quickly the moment something changes.

In the garden

A trip in the rose bed becomes a phone call, not an emergency.

Fall detection senses the impact. The device opens a two-way line. A Canadian operator confirms what's happening and lets your daughter know you're fine before she even knows there was a moment.
