Pixami

A safety check-in app for people who live alone: they tap once a day to say they're okay, and if they miss their window, the people they trust are emailed to check on them.

41-second promo for TikTok and Reels: the hook, a 48-hour check-in story told with the app's own screens and emails, and the call to action.
Three Pixami phone screens side by side: the welcome screen with the star mascot and the line One tap a day, someone always knows you're okay; the home screen with a large violet I'm OK button inside a countdown ring, a six-day streak and one emergency contact; and the daily reminder card quoting Quran 25:74 with a Read button.

What we built

  • 01One-tap check-in with a ring counting down to the deadline, turning amber near it and red once overdue
  • 02Reminder email at three-quarters of the window, alert to up to three contacts at the deadline, and an all-clear when the person checks in again
  • 03Each reminder and alert claimed by a single conditional write, so overlapping scheduler runs cannot send it twice
  • 04No passwords: a hashed session token in a cookie, and one-time emailed links to sign in on another phone
  • 05A daily reminder from the Quran or Sahih al-Bukhari and Muslim: 365 entries, each reference checked against its source
  • 06Installable on phones, and runs on free tiers: an external scheduler calls a secret-keyed endpoint instead of a server that never sleeps

A note on these screens. Built to test the idea before launch, so it has no users yet. The screens are real captures from the running app on a demo account; the names and emails in them are invented. The promo video is built from those same screens, with an animated opening scene and an AI voice-over.

Three more Pixami phone screens: the sign-up step that asks who to tell, with one contact filled in; the home screen after a missed deadline, with a red I'm OK button and a banner saying the emergency contacts were emailed; and the settings screen with name, email and emergency contacts.
