Core offering

Citizens Save Lives operates the Cisali platform, a mobile and web application that connects people in cardiac emergencies with nearby automated external defibrillators (AEDs) and a volunteer network of trained first responders. The platform maintains a global defibrillator location database and uses location-based alerts to notify registered responders of nearby emergencies, bridging the time gap until professional emergency services arrive. The mobile app is currently temporarily suspended due to financial constraints.

Product overview

Citizens Save Lives operates as a unified mobile and web platform called Cisali, consisting of a mobile app (available for Android and iOS) and a web platform (www.cisali.com). The core offering is a global defibrillator location database combined with a trained first responder network. The mobile app enables emergency response coordination, while the web platform serves as the interface for defibrillator location reporting and first responder registration. All services are currently temporarily suspended due to financial constraints.

Direct peers

• PulsePoint: US-based non-profit mobile platform that alerts trained citizen responders to nearby cardiac emergencies and surfaces AED locations. It is the most direct global competitor to Citizens Save Lives' core AED + responder-network concept.
• GoodSAM: UK-headquartered app that alerts nearby trained responders (including off-duty medical professionals) to emergencies and live-streams calls to dispatchers. Closely comparable in product, volunteer responder model, and AED mapping scope.
• Staying Alive: Global AED location database and citizen-responder app originating in France. Directly competes with Cisali on crowdsourced AED discovery and trained-responder alerting.
• AEDMAP: French company operating one of the largest crowdsourced AED databases worldwide, with a consumer app and B2B data/API offerings. Highly comparable data-asset and product model to Citizens Save Lives.
• Heartrunner: Copenhagen-based (and expanding) cardiac emergency volunteer-responder app integrated with national EMS dispatch systems. Comparable in function, with stronger EMS integration.

Broad incumbents

• RapidSOS: US-based emergency-response data platform that links connected devices to 911/EU emergency services. Overlaps with Citizens Save Lives in emergency-data transmission but addresses a broader set of incident types.
• ZOLL Medical: Major AED and resuscitation-product manufacturer (a subsidiary of Asahi Kasei). An adjacent, much larger incumbent whose AED hardware and software ecosystem could supersede or absorb a smaller AED-locator like Citizens Save Lives.
• Philips HeartStart: Royal Philips' AED product line, often paired with AED program management software. Comparable in the broader AED ecosystem but focused on hardware and managed programs rather than crowdsourced locating.
• HeartSine / Stryker: Stryker (HeartSine) is a global AED manufacturer and emergency-care provider. Comparable as a broader incumbent in the AED/emergency response space rather than as a direct consumer-app competitor.

Others

• EENA (European Emergency Number Association): European NGO that coordinates emergency-services stakeholders, including AED location data initiatives. Not a competitor but a relevant ecosystem actor for partnerships, standards, and EMS integrations.
