Examples of use

Three situations the plan rarely covers

The plan identifies who must be notified. It should also clarify where the conversation will take place if the usual systems are unavailable.

Open a situation to see how the channel can be used.

Alerts and mobilisation

Bring everyone who needs to be alerted together in a crisis group set up in advance. Your organisation adds users, and everyone knows where to meet when the alert goes out.

Coordination during an incident

Share messages, assessments and images in a dedicated incident group, even when email and internal systems are down. Everyone follows the same conversation.

Emergency preparedness exercises

Practise without your usual systems, with the people who will actually handle the incident. Clarify access and procedures before they are needed.

How Skytale supports the work

A crisis group ready before the incident

Introducing an app during a crisis is no substitute for preparation. Identify participants, test the channel and make it part of your emergency procedures.

Known participants

Users are verified and created by the organisation itself.

A separate channel

Skytale works independently of your organisation's other IT. Prerequisites for your setup are clarified before use.

On every device

iOS, Android, PC and Mac, synchronised in real time.

Confidential communication

Content is end-to-end encrypted under Norwegian jurisdiction.
