Sfara
Sfara is a Hoboken, New Jersey-based mobility-safety software company that turns an ordinary smartphone into a crash-detection and emergency-response platform - no dedicated hardware required. Using patented on-device AI, its SDK detects vehicle collisions at any speed (including its 'ZeroMotion' capability for stationary vehicles) while a multi-layered suppression framework filters out false positives. Sfara sells a GDPR-compliant SaaS platform to insurance carriers, automotive OEMs, fleets, and mobile network operators, aiming to accelerate first-notification-of-loss (FNOL), speed emergency response, and modernize telematics.
