Send Word Now specializes in risk management and communication solutions, enabling organizations to enhance resilience and operational continuity during emergencies. Send Word Now, founded in 2001 in Secaucus, US, provides critical communication services. In June 2017, it was acquired by Emergency Communications Network, Inc. , a portfolio company of Veritas Capital.

The company has secured a total amount raised of USD 14. 00 mn through a Series D funding round with contributions from Ascend Venture Group, Palisades Growth Capital, and Southpaw Asset Management. Send Word Now offers a suite of risk management and communication solutions focused on enhancing organizational resilience. Its key products include Critical Event Management, which coordinates emergency responses, Travel Risk Management for traveler safety, and Global Security Assistance providing 24/7 support.

The company also features a Mass Notification System for rapid alerts and Medical Evacuation Assistance for high-risk areas, serving clients such as government agencies, Fortune 500 companies, universities, and international NGOs across markets in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East. The revenue model of Send Word Now primarily relies on subscription-based services, catering to both business-to-business (B2B) and direct consumer engagements. Clients subscribe to tiered plans that may encompass multiple services, ensuring tailored solutions for emergency preparedness, with revenue generated from recurring fees reflecting a commitment to reliable risk management solutions. Send Word Now plans to utilize its recent funding to further develop and launch new products designed for enhanced risk communication and management.

The company is also focused on expanding its presence in international markets, targeting regions such as Asia and Europe by 2025. The funding received in 2017 will support these initiatives, enhancing product capabilities and geographic reach.
