Sora is designed to bring rescue supplies closer to the moment they’re needed — before it’s too late.
More than 81,000 people died from opioid overdoses in the United States in 2023 according to the CDC. Opioid deaths have more than doubled since 2019.
Another 60,000 people die each year from severe bleeding after traumatic injuries. Trauma is the leading cause of death for Americans ages 1 to 46.
There are more than 3 million AEDs in public spaces across the country, however lifesaving tools for overdose and severe bleeding are not as accessible. When emergencies happen, people often want to help. They just may not have the tools within reach.
Sora is a network of smart, accessible rescue containers placed where emergencies actually happen — workplaces, campuses, public spaces, neighborhoods.
Each container holds lifesaving supplies like naloxone, tourniquets, dressings, and bandages. Clear, step-by-step instructions are included inside. A QR code on the outside lets anyone quickly learn what to do before an emergency.
And Sora is more than a box on the wall. Every container is connected through a centralized web app. Supplies are tracked. Expiration dates are monitored. When a Sora container is opened, the people who need to know are notified. Owners can remotely check Sora's containers' status without constant manual inspections.
That means:
Supplies are ready when they’re needed
Maintenance takes less time and labor
Important supplies aren't forgotten or overlooked
