Most parents know about AMBER Alert, which is a voluntary partnership between law-enforcement agencies, broadcasters, transportation agencies, and the wireless industry. AMBER Alert is used to activate an urgent bulletin in the most serious child-abduction cases. Since it’s inception, it’s facilitated hundreds of successful recoveries. However, the partnership does have some limitations. Parents don’t get to control of when and how the information is distributed, and only a limited amount of information can be communicated to law enforcement agencies.

When a child goes missing, one of the most important things that need to happen is the dissemination of information about the child — images, identifiable information, medical details, etc… However, that’s also one of the most difficult things for panic-stricken parents to put together in a short amount of time. Furthermore, if the abduction takes place away from home, like on a vacation, access to key information and pictures may not be easily accessible.

That’s where a new service called InstantAmber comes in. InstantAmber is an online service that helps you privately and securely manage and store information about your children. That information includes relationships, known adult contacts, hangouts, possible destinations, pictures and much more. In the unfortunate event of an abduction, parents can instantly push this vital information to local, state, and federal authorities, instantly and securely. InstantAmber also lets parents create PDF flyers of their missing child with a click of a button. Then they can print them out and post them or email them friends, family, media and law enforcement.
