Three years of the Air Alert app: over 27 million downloads and UAH 13 million raised

Three years of the Air Alert app: over 27 million downloads and UAH 13 million raised

The Air Alert app marks its third anniversary. The project was created in the first days of the full-scale russian invasion of Ukraine in response to a request for a timely air raid alarm tool. Developed by Ajax Systems and Stfalcon, and supported by Ukraine's Ministry of Digital Transformation, the app delivers real-time alerts for six types of threats.

With 27 million downloads and more than 6,5 million active users daily, the app remains a critical safety tool in Ukraine. Today, Air Alert has transformed into a platform that saves lives and helps implement fundraising and social initiatives. 

The app was integrated with the All-Ukrainian Mental Health Program “How Are You?”, initiated by the First Lady of Ukraine, Olena Zelenska, offering users at-fingertips psychological support. Along with the push notification about the end of an air raid, users can receive exercises and tips aimed at helping stabilize their emotional state.

The Air Alert app raised more than UAH 10 million for UNITED24 Ambassador Mark Hamill's fundraiser to purchase RQ-35 Heidrun reconnaissance drones. The app also supported UNITED24 Ambassador Timothy Snyder's Safe Skies fundraiser, helping to raise $2,347,900. In partnership with the non-governmental organization AZOV.ONE, 2.5 million was raised for the needs of the Azov Medical Service, and more than 1 million for the Come Back Alive Foundation.

Thanks to the Air Alert app integration, alarms are transmitted directly to Ajax security systems via API. This makes it possible to activate the air alarm through physical Ajax sirens, ensuring the notification is heard wherever the Ajax security system is installed. Thus, the solution of automatic door opening during the air alert was implemented for 402 shelters.  

The importance of the project is confirmed by the international community. The app has received several global awards: The European Excellence Awards for outstanding communication and social initiatives in Europe, the British Security & Fire Excellence Awards, and the award from the Ukrainian media DOU in the category "Best Socially Responsible IT Initiative".
