Maker
Hi Hunters! I'm proud to be a recent member of the Whystle team, and we are glad to be able to share with you an app to help keep your family safe from dangerous products. Whystle was founded by Lauren Bell, a Harvard Law School-educated former federal prosecutor and mother of four. Lauren worked at the United States Department of Justice, where she prosecuted companies for unsafe products. She saw firsthand the importance of staying up-to-date on product safety information for her children. She founded Whystle so that she could use her expertise to help others keep their loved ones safe as well. THE PROBLEM: Dangerous products are everywhere. Just look at the headlines... - “Deadly Recalled Products Still Lurk in Child-Care Centers” (L.A. Times) - “Dogs are Sick, Dying After Eating Recalled Food” (NBC) - “More Infant Sleep Products Linked to Deaths” (Consumer Reports) Even when a product is recalled, many people never hear about it. It remains in homes, schools, or daycare centers, and the results can be tragic. Children, pets, and others are constantly at risk. Every year, dangerous products are responsible for: - 60,000+ Infant and toddler emergency room visits - 100,000+ Hospitalizations for food-borne illnesses - 200,000+ Injuries caused by toys THE SOLUTION: WHYSTLE Whystle lets you know what’s dangerous and what’s safe. Get personalized product safety alerts, search the history of a brand or product type, and see recent news. After two years of development and improvement, we're back on PH to show you "Version 2", featuring new personalization options, a friendlier redesign of the UI, the ability to follow certain brands, and more! Currently available for iPhone only, we plan to launch soon for Android. Major alerts are free for all users. Customize your profile to get full access to alerts tailored to your family's needs with Whystle Pro for $2/month.
