Prepared is an AI-powered emergency communications platform that turns 911 calls into actionable intelligence by synthesizing call audio, text, video, GPS and real-time translation into a single view for dispatchers. Founded in 2019 by Yale students Michael Chime, Dylan Gleicher, and Neal Soni, the company supports more than 1,000 public safety agencies across 49 U.S. states, helping protect roughly 100 million people. Its flagship product, Prepared Assist, is an AI assistive 911 platform that can autonomously handle non-critical calls and serve as an intelligent assistant on critical calls. Prepared was acquired by Axon (NASDAQ: AXON) in 2025.
