About

WanderAlert is a physical alarm module designed to guarantee notice in emergencies — no single point of failure, no way to sleep through it. Four parallel signal sources: WanderSafeMesh LoRa mesh, NOAA Weather Radio (162.4–162.55 MHz, zero internet), LTE-M cellular, and WiFi. Three escalating alarm levels: audio alert, then sustained multi-tone alarm with lights, then maximum intensity with physical acknowledgment required (button hold) and automatic escalation to WanderSafeMesh mesh broadcast. Every acknowledgment is logged with timestamp. Designed for camps, group housing, and anywhere a missed alert has life-safety consequences. HAVEN Camp Kit bundles 3 units for $600–900, covering full event-site coverage.

Hand-assembled

Built by supported employment workers — people with intellectual disabilities, autism, and physical disabilities — through WWP's fulfillment program. Every product ships with a Built By card. Competitive wage, never 14(c) subminimum.

Repair & refurb

Send it back. Prepaid label. Component-level repair, module upgrades, firmware updates. 7-year spare parts guarantee. Donate on return — refurbished hardware goes to shelter and community partners. GPL firmware: the device works even if WanderVerse shuts down.

No hardware subscription — ever

BMW charged $18/mo for heated seats already in your car. GM locked remote start. Eero charges for VPN on hardware that could run it free. We don't do that. You bought it, you own it — every feature works forever, no subscription required. WanderAssist ($9/mo optional) is a convenience layer, never a gate. Safety features are never paywalled.

Pro & Lux tiers — coming

Every WanderVerse hardware product will offer Pro and Lux finish tiers — premium materials and handcrafted finishes by WanderVerse Artisans: supported employment workers with artistic skills. Each Lux unit ships with a Finished By card. Lux revenue cross-subsidizes nonprofit pricing.
