Prepared, a leading AI-powered emergency response platform, announced today it has raised $80 million in Series C funding. This significant investment brings Prepared's total funding to approximately $135.2 million. The company utilizes AI to modernize emergency response systems across the U.S., working with over 1,000 public safety agencies in 49 states to protect nearly 100 million people.
The funding round was led by General Catalyst, with participation from returning investors Andreessen Horowitz and First Round Capital, and new investor Radical Ventures. This substantial capital injection will fuel the expansion of Prepared's platform, enhancing features like real-time translation and automated call triage.
Prepared's AI-driven platform streamlines the entire emergency response workflow, from initial call intake to dispatch and post-call review. Key features include automated non-emergency triage, which frees up human operators to focus on critical situations, and assistive call-taking, providing real-time transcription and translation for improved communication.
The company's mission is to ensure every emergency receives a perfect response, leveraging AI to improve efficiency and effectiveness in emergency services across the nation. This latest funding round signifies a major step forward in achieving this ambitious goal.
