World-Class Community Engagement.
In partnership with local government and law enforcement Alertizen modernizes and revitalizes a city's block watch / neighborhood watch program so that every citizen can participate, be engaged, get out of harm's way and become the eyes and ears of the police in real time
The police department cannot reduce crime without the help and cooperation of the public. If we ever hope to reduce crime in our neighborhoods, it must be a joint effort by the citizens and the police department.
Alertizen is a low cost subscription service. Join the community today.
What is Alertizen

The Goal of Alertizen is to quickly notify our members that a crime may be occurring in their neighborhood making them aware of their surroundings and getting them out of harms-way.
How Alertizen Works
Sign Up
Alertizen sends an alert to our members by text message and email. We can also send alerts to your desktop which is useful while you're at work and don't have access to your phone.
Select Monitoring Area
Once subscribed, you can enter from 1 to 3 monitoring area such as your home, your parents home, your work address.
Stay Alert
Now you're an official Alertizen (an alert citizen)! You can adjust your settings anytime. While we urge you to stay alert, please never, ever try to foil or confront criminal activity. That's what police are for. Get to safety, and become the eyes and ears of police.

Partnership with your police department
Modern police departments want their citizens actively involved through community engagement. Budget constraints have limited police resources so more and more people are urged to be aware of what's happening around them and report criminal activity to police.
Technology makes it simple
Everyone is busier than ever and the traditional front porch neighborhood watch is difficult. But almost everyone has a cell phone and Alertizen is the perfect answer to keeping you informed on what is happening in your neighborhood.
Empower an entire neighborhood
Alertizen puts criminals on notice that the entire neighborhood is aware of their presence. Criminals may be dumb but they know better than to "work" in an area where every citizen is an Alertizen.
Easy to use
In less than 60-seconds you'll be an Alertizen. Signup and select your monitoring areas. That's it! Alertizen then goes to work and will send you an alert whenever something of a criminal nature happens in one of your monitoring areas.
Maintain property values
Safe neighborhoods are in demand and as a result help to maintain or even increase property values.
