For small rural communities
Tell the whole town at once.
Write the message once. It goes out as a text message, onto a page anyone can open, and onto a phone line that reads it aloud for the people who don't text.
What residents see
A looping, non-interactive example of a GetAlert community page for Cottonwood Junction, XX — an invented town. The example cycles through 5 states: all clear, notice, warning, urgent, cleared. None of the notices shown are real alerts, and no real community is involved. Use the buttons after the example to step through it one state at a time.

Cottonwood Junction
A town we made up, so nothing here can be mistaken for a real notice.
Nothing here is a real notice. Every message below is written to demonstrate the page. On a real community's page, this line reminds residents to call 911 in an emergency.
All Clear
No active warnings in this example.
Most days the page just says all clear.
Three ways the message lands
Text message
Residents text one word to sign up. When you send, it arrives on the phones of everyone who did — no app to install, no account to remember.
A page to link
Your community gets a web address you can put on a flyer, a Facebook post, or the water bill. Anyone can open it and see what is current.
Call-in line
People who don't text can call a number and hear the latest notice read aloud. Nobody is left out over the phone they happen to own.
