Feature

In a world where business travel is a common aspect of the job, it’s natural more travelers visit cities and countries they have never been before.

A new, free app is designed to make sure employees can stay safe and aware of their surroundings even when they travel in unfamiliar locations.

GeoSure is a free app designed to aid business travelers in this respect. The app provides travelers with real-time updates on the safety score of a certain area. A rating on a scale from one to 100 is presented to the user. The lower the number, the safer a location is deemed.

The app draws upon hundreds of sources to develop the ratings. Sources include the U.S. State Department, the World Health Organization, the United Nations, the Center for Disease Control and user reviews. The ratings factor in criteria including women’s safety, political freedoms, physical harm, theft and overall safety. Recently, the app added functionality to launch localized LGBTQ+ safety ratings.

GeoSure measures safety data in more than 30,000 neighborhoods all over the world. The app is available on smartphones and smart watches.
