Public safety communications

Our Nimbus smartphone app helps ensure that first responders arrive faster, safer and more informed"

FirstNet – America’s public safety communications platform – features the first-ever App Catalog geared to first responders, featuring more than 100 apps relevant to public safety’s mission. This gives FirstNet subscribers a dedicated location to find meaningful new solutions, like RapidDeploy Nimbus, that have been specifically reviewed for use with FirstNet services.

Before any mobile solution can be added to the FirstNet App Catalog, it must pass stringent tests for security, relevancy, data privacy and more. “RapidDeploy’s mission is to reduce response times and improve first responder safety by increasing situational awareness,” said Steven Raucher, Co-Founder and CEO of RapidDeploy. “Our Nimbus smartphone app helps ensure that first responders arrive faster, safer and more informed.”

First responders' incident response

Achieving a FirstNet Listed designation means RapidDeploy Nimbus is a vetted and trusted solution for public safety, meeting FirstNet app requirements. Additionally, FirstNet subscribers will benefit from FirstNet reliability while using Nimbus.
