What is HeyOperator

HeyOperator is a safety app where Sam (a friendly AI voice) calls YOU when you want people to know you're not alone.

One tap and Sam calls you. A deterrent to anyone nearby. Your location is captured and your safety contact is notified you've started your journey.

Why HeyOperator

Your journey home, reimagined.

HeyOperator app screen

  • Sam is available 24/7

    No friend awake at 2am? No problem. Sam calls you when you need him. No guilt, no judgement.

  • Sam shares your location

    The moment you press call me now, Sam captures a snapshot of your location and pings it to your safety contact.

  • Sam acts as a deterrent

    You're not alone in the back of a taxi — you're on the phone. To anyone watching, that means somebody else is listening.

Peace of mind

This is what your safety contact sees.

The moment you request a call — and again when you've arrived safely.

FAQ

Things people ask before they call.

No, Sam is an AI safety companion, designed to feel as natural as a friend on the line. He's not pretending to be human, he's there for when that isn't an option and he's better than the alternatives, which are usually voicemail or a pre-recorded message from TikTok.
No, to anyone within earshot it sounds like you're on a normal phone call with a friend. Sam's voice is warm and natural, with real intonation and unscripted responses, so anyone listening in just hears a genuine conversation with someone that's waiting for you at home.
HeyOperator is designed as a deterrent, not an emergency service. If you're ever in immediate danger, please call 999.
HeyOperator is launched in the UK and works anywhere with a mobile data or Wi-Fi connection. Other regions coming soon.
A safety contact is the person you'd like to notify of your location. When you request a call, HeyOperator sends a snapshot of your location to your safety contact. If you've added one, you'll see an "I'm home safe" button after the call — tapping it lets your safety contact know you've arrived, with a snapshot of your updated location. If you don't add a safety contact, HeyOperator won't snapshot your location.
Sam remembers the last two calls you've had with him, so he might ask about something you mentioned before — or you can pick up a conversation where you left off.
Yes — calls are recorded for safety purposes.
Yes, there is no contract or minimum term. Cancel from your account any time.

HeyOperator is NOT an emergency service. If you're in danger, please call the emergency services on 999.

From the women who use it

Quiet relief, shared.

★★★★★

"I feel Sam has really helped. We only spoke for a few minutes but the driver heard that I was chatting to someone who was waiting up for me and the vibe in the car changed completely."

Ellie · 33 (free user)
★★★★★

"I actually used Sam in a bar to pretend my boyfriend was calling to get rid of some guys that wouldn't leave us alone."

Nala · 22 (free user)
★★★★★

"Honestly works best as a short call at the start of the journey to make it clear someone's there and has your location. Long chats feel less natural."

Alice · 36 (user testing)
When it matters

Because "Text me when you're home" shouldn't be your entire safety plan.

If something feels off, trust your gut. One tap and Sam calls you. He's ready and everything is tracked and recorded.
