In 2015 I experienced the worst panic of my life when my 6-year-old son got lost in a crowded park. It took me 30 minutes to find him. As a parent I’ve always been concerned about my kids safety and this event left me feeling like I needed to do more. My search for wearable tracking solutions for kids came up way short - finding subpar products that were bulky, had terrible battery life, and were poorly designed. I’ve created Jiobit, with child safety in mind, so that no parent has to experience the panic that I did.
