What is Tourist SOS? The Future of Emergency Healthcare for Travelers

Traveling is supposed to be about adventure, discovery, and freedom. But when something goes wrong — an accident on a scooter, a sudden illness, or an emergency in a remote area — travelers quickly find out how fragile healthcare access can be abroad. That's where Tourist SOS comes in.

Our Mission

Tourist SOS is building the global standard for tourist emergency healthcare. We connect travelers, hospitals, and insurers through a single AI-powered platform that eliminates delays, reduces costs, and improves outcomes.

We're not a clinic, not a call center, and not an insurance company. We are the tech rails that make sure emergencies are handled fast, fairly, and with the right local knowledge.

Why It Matters

Legacy travel insurance systems were built 30–40 years ago. They rely on phone calls, fax machines, and call centers that struggle to operate once you leave major cities. In developing tourist hotspots — from Laos to Cambodia, Costa Rica to Nepal — these systems break down.

Tourist SOS solves this by:

• Digitizing providers → hospitals, clinics, and ambulances update their availability and pricing in real time.
• AI-driven triage (SOSA) → our integrated assistant guides travelers to the right care, not just the nearest one.
• Direct insurer integration → claims and payments flow automatically, without call-center bottlenecks.

How It Works

1. A traveler contacts Tourist SOS through our app or partner network.
2. We instantly connect them to the best available provider, arrange transport if needed, and lock in their insurance coverage.
3. Hospitals get faster payments, insurers cut costs, and travelers get peace of mind.

Every case we handle strengthens our dataset — from ferry times to hospital capacity — making our system smarter and more reliable with every update.

Our Vision

Think of us as Visa for emergency healthcare. We don't replace local providers or insurers — we connect them into a global, seamless network that just works.

Tourist SOS is launching first in Southeast Asia, where the gap between tourism growth and healthcare access is greatest. From there, we'll expand across developing markets worldwide, building the rails that will power cross-border healthcare for decades to come.
