Check On Me™ Mobile App

CHECK ON ME™ is a subscription-based mobile app for people who live alone and value freedom, privacy, and a simple way to turn silence into a signal when something is wrong.

Company Overview

Check On Me™ is a privacy-first mobile app designed for people who live alone and want a simple, dignified way to confirm their well-being each day. The app allows users to complete a daily check-in and automatically notifies trusted contacts if they fail to respond within defined timeframes.

This solves a growing but often overlooked problem: when someone lives alone, an unexpected emergency can go unnoticed for hours, days, or longer.

Existing solutions often rely on intrusive monitoring, wearables, caregiver oversight, or products designed primarily for the elderly.

Check On Me™ offers a modern alternative for independent adults who want peace of mind without surveillance, stigma, or complicated hardware.

Check On Me™ is more than a safety app. It is a lifestyle-based protection platform built around independence, privacy, and human connection.

Check On Me™ is an early-stage mobile startup currently in development, with a validated market need, a growing waitlist, and a clear path to launch.

The Problem

Millions of people live alone, yet most safety solutions have not kept pace with how people want to live today. Many individuals value autonomy and privacy, but they still face the very real possibility that if something happens, no one may know in time.

The problem is not simply that emergencies occur. The deeper issue is that there is often no reliable daily signal confirming someone is okay. Friends and family may assume everything is fine.

Current solutions are often too invasive, too complicated, too senior-focused, or too dependent on additional devices. As a result, many people do nothing at all and rely on hope instead of a safeguard.

Check On Me™ addresses that gap by turning silence into a signal.

Founder Story

Check On Me™ was born from lived experience.

In a span of 15 months, I lost my God Mom, my Mom, my job, my best friend, my Dad, and then my dog. Suddenly, the people who would normally notice if something was wrong with me were gone. During that season, I told my therapist one of my deepest fears was dying alone and no one finding out for days, weeks, or longer.

That fear became even more real when my cousin Kevin passed away, and no one found him for six days.

That experience pushed me to take seriously an idea that had been in my head for years. Check On Me™ was created to give people who live alone a simple, respectful, and dependable way to stay connected to someone who would notice when silence matters.

Product

Check On Me™ is a mobile app with two roles within the same platform:

User Role
Subscribers use the app for daily wellness check-ins and benefit from automated escalation if they become unresponsive.

Admin Role
The admin side supports subscription monitoring and alert-log tracking.

The product is intentionally designed to be simple and approachable. There are no cameras, no wearables, no in-home devices, and no constant surveillance. Instead, users receive a daily prompt to check in. If they do not respond within the designated window, trusted contacts are alerted automatically.

In addition to the core safety function, users also receive a “Daily Dose of Awesome” with motivational and inspirational messages that create a more positive daily engagement habit. This helps position Check On Me™ not just as a reactive emergency solution, but as a meaningful part of everyday life.

Target Market

Check On Me™ serves a growing market of people who live alone and value both independence and peace of mind. In the United States, more than 30 million people live in single-person households, and that number continues to grow across multiple demographics.

The initial audience includes:

High school graduates heading to college
College graduates moving away for their first job
Professionals, freelancers, and entrepreneurs living alone
Parents and grandparents maintaining an active lifestyle
Frequent travelers and adventure seekers
Friends and family members concerned about loved ones who live alone

These customers generally fall into three core emotional segments:

The Independent Achievers
People who enjoy living alone and want a quiet safety net without giving up privacy or freedom.

The Life Transition Crowd
People stepping into independence for the first time, along with the loved ones who want reassurance.

The Active Agers
Older adults who live independently and do not want traditional senior-focused products or monitoring systems.

Business Model

Check On Me™ will operate on a subscription-based model with pricing of:

$9.99 per month
$99 per year

This pricing is designed to be accessible while still reflecting the real value of the problem being solved. While some alternatives are more expensive and depend on equipment or installation, others are lower priced but may lack the automation, consistency, and lifestyle fit that Check On Me™ is built to provide as a low-friction and mobile-first alternative.

The subscription model supports recurring revenue, predictable scalability, and strong brand expansion opportunities over time. It also creates room for future high-margin products, resources, and partnerships tied to independent living, safety, and wellness.

Ongoing costs are expected to include cloud hosting, push notifications, SMS/email delivery, app store fees, and routine maintenance. These costs are designed to remain predictable and efficient on a per-user basis as the platform grows.

Customer Validation and Early Market Signals

I have tested the concept using Facebook and Instagram ads that drove traffic to a quiz at https://www.checkonme.xyz/friendquiz. That campaign generated a waitlist of more than 2,600 subscribers, providing early validation that the problem resonates with the market and that there is interest in this type of solution.

Current acquisition data includes:

Waitlist: 2,600+ subscribers
CPC: $0.21
CPR: $1.40
CPM: $12.72
CTR: 6%

These results give Check On Me™ an early advantage by demonstrating that interest can be generated efficiently before the full product is completed and deployed.

Customer Acquisition Strategy

The initial go-to-market strategy will begin with Facebook and Instagram ads, where I already have deep experience generating strong results and measurable return on ad spend. These channels will be used to acquire the first wave of paying users and continue building market awareness.

The initial paid targeting profile includes:

Age: 30–64
Location: Urban and suburban areas with strong access to technology and mobile networks
Education: High school diploma or higher
Occupation: Professionals, freelancers, entrepreneurs, and adventure seekers

After Facebook and Instagram, the growth strategy will expand into:

YouTube ads
LinkedIn ads
Public relations
Strategic partnerships
Community-based channels

This creates a phased acquisition model that starts with channels I know how to execute well, then broadens into authority-building and partnership-driven visibility as the company grows.

Competitive Landscape

Check On Me™ enters a market that includes medical alert systems, smart home devices, and check-in apps such as Snug, ElderCheck Now, Circle Alert, DooInWell, and Are You Dead (Demumu), along with informal check-in solutions.

While these options serve parts of the market, many fall into one or more of the following categories:

intrusive monitoring
caregiver-led systems
hardware-dependent solutions
products designed mainly for seniors
apps with limited automation or weaker engagement

Check On Me™ stands apart with a privacy-first, mobile-only model built specifically for independent people who live alone by choice and want reassurance without feeling watched, labeled, or burdened by extra technology.

Its differentiation lies in simplicity, emotional relevance, accessibility, and a modern lifestyle-based brand position.

Team and Execution

I have already assembled a full-stack development partner, Resolute Solutions, to support the build and deployment of Check On Me™.

Resolute Solutions brings:

12+ years in business
15+ countries served
500+ projects delivered
98% client satisfaction rate

This provides a capable technical foundation for bringing the product to market and supporting future scale.

Founder Credentials

I bring a unique combination of lived experience, technical education, digital marketing expertise, and product-building experience to this business.

My background includes:

Industrial Engineering degree (employed full-time)
Master’s degree in Management of Information Systems
Seven years of digital marketing expertise
Proven experience building and marketing digital products

I have created GroupsTag™, a Google Chrome extension, and The Speaker Event Finder™, a platform that helps speakers find aligned speaking opportunities.

These experiences have equipped me to do more than simply come up with an idea. I understand systems, software, audience building, customer acquisition, and how to bring digital products to market.

Growth Vision

The long-term vision for Check On Me™ is to become a widely recognized safety and wellness brand for people who live alone. While the initial launch focuses on the U.S. market, the broader goal is to expand globally and build a larger ecosystem of products, services, and resources for people who want independence without isolation.

Planned partnership opportunities include:

Student orientation programs
Apartment leasing offices
HR and employee wellness programs
Adventure travel companies
Senior wellness groups

Check On Me™ is designed to be the kind of brand people recommend, share, and gift to loved ones because it addresses a universal fear in a practical, respectful, and modern way.
