Who we are

Brave makes overdose detection tools that activate life-saving community response.

Overdose detection works whenever and wherever people use drugs. The Brave App, Buttons and Sensors help keep people who use drugs alone safer from fatal overdose.

We are a multi-stakeholder cooperative based in Vancouver, BC, Canada and Dayton, OH, USA dedicated to helping municipalities across North America prevent overdose fatalities and reduce harm in their communities.

As a cooperative, Brave is owned and governed by its members, who include users of the technology, staff, and investors. We believe in meeting people where they are at and developing our tools collaboratively with people who have lived and living experience with drugs.
