The global health pandemic has shed new light on how essential it is to have accurate data about an individual’s situation to assess the severity of his or her condition, and for those responding to emergencies to have it as instantly as possible to make the right choices in terms of care. Today, a startup that’s built a platform that helps enable that flow of data is announcing a round of funding to expand its business.

RapidSOS, which works with some 4,700 public safety agencies alongside a network of other companies including wearable tech makers, connected home companies, carriers and others to provide those agencies with instant data about people in critical situations making emergency calls for help — some 650,000 calls per day in the US alone — has raised $21 million in funding.
