What you'll get

Specific alerts. Plain English. The agency notice, always linked.

We don't editorialize. We tell you what's recalled, who in your household it affects, and what to do — same vocabulary the agency used.

Brands you buy

Trader Joe's, Boar's Head, Perdue — track the brands in your kitchen and we'll flag the moment a SKU is pulled.

Last alert: Boar's Head deli — Listeria, all RTE expanded

Cars you drive

Add your VIN once. We watch NHTSA for safety recalls and dealer remedy bulletins on your year/make/model.

Last alert: 2022 Subaru Outback — brake light switch (NHTSA 26V-118)

Medications & allergens

Alerts on prescriptions you take and undeclared-allergen recalls. The alert detail page shows the affected lot codes so you can check the bottle in your medicine cabinet.

Last alert: Lisinopril 20mg — superpotency (lot LA24B not affected)

Per-household, not per-product

Add up to 6 members. Each alert is tagged with whose recall it actually is — Matthew's milk allergy, Dad's prescription, the family car.

The right channel, the right time

Class I goes to push and email — fast. Class III rolls into a calm Sunday digest. You can change any of it.

Every alert sourced

Every notice links the original agency announcement and recall ID. We don't paraphrase — we contextualize.

How it works

Four feeds, one quiet alert when something matches.

We watch every notice the moment it publishes. Match it against your household. Notify only the people it concerns.

01

We watch the feeds

FDA, USDA, NHTSA, CPSC publish hundreds of recall notices a year. We ingest each one within minutes.

FDAUSDACPSCNHTSA
02

We match against your household

Brand you bought, VIN you registered, prescription a member takes, allergen flagged on a profile.

03

You get one alert — only when it's about you

Severity-tagged, plain-English, with the official notice always one tap away.

Why we exist

High-signal alerts. Low volume. Open math.

We publish our matching numbers because they're the proof that this works. If they ever drop, we'll show you the dashboard before we send a press release.

Questions

The honest questions, answered honestly.

How is this different from signing up for FDA email alerts?
FDA, USDA, NHTSA and CPSC each send everything they publish — you get hundreds of notices a year, almost none about products in your house. We match against your specific brands, vehicles and prescriptions, and only ping you on real overlaps. The federal feeds are great for journalists; we're built for households.
What does "matching a medication lot" actually mean?
When you add a prescription, we track the drug and strength. When the FDA recalls that drug, we surface the alert with the affected lot codes from the agency notice — you compare the codes against the bottle in your cabinet. We don't ask for your lot codes (we don't want that data) and we never tell you to stop a medication.
Why do you require a card for the trial?
Two reasons. It cuts trial-farm signups, and it means we can keep the price at $34.99/year for everyone who actually uses the service. We send a reminder three days before the trial ends. You can cancel from the app or web in one tap and you're refunded prorated within 14 days of conversion.
Can I share with family or roommates?
Yes. Family covers up to 6 members on one account. Each member can have their own allergies, medications, and devices, and you control who gets alerts for what. Adult members can have their own login; kids' profiles are managed by the account owner.
Where does the data come from?
Directly from the FDA, USDA FSIS, NHTSA, and CPSC — the four federal agencies that issue safety recalls in the U.S. Every alert links the original government notice and recall ID. We don't paraphrase, repackage as news, or accept paid placement.
How fast do alerts arrive?
Average time from agency publication to your phone is about 5 minutes. We poll the federal feeds on a 5-minute cadence. Class III alerts roll into the Sunday digest by default — you can change that.

The next recall is already in the queue.
