Most of recovery is an ordinary Tuesday.
Threshold is a recovery and overdose-prevention platform for people
navigating substance use, and for the people who love them. It works
hardest on the days when nothing appears to be wrong.
Why this exists
A panic button activates after something has already gone wrong. That
describes about one percent of the time a person spends in recovery.
We built for the other ninety-nine.
Tolerance Guard
Tolerance collapses within days of abstinence. The remembered dose does
not. The period after detox, hospital discharge, or release is among the
highest-risk windows in medicine — so we speak up during it, unprompted,
before anything happens.
An escalation ladder you control
Six states, from Baseline to Unresponsive. You see the whole ladder and
you decide who is told what, at which tier. One exception, disclosed up
front and not overridable: if we believe you are in medical danger, we
alert someone.
Emergency scripts, ready in advance
Under acute stress nobody can produce a coherent report. Your address,
your unit number, your door code, written down while you were calm and
read back to you one line at a time when you are not.
Your legal protection, said out loud
The most common reason people do not call 911 during an overdose is fear
of arrest. Most US states protect the caller. We say so first, before
anything else, without being asked.
Caregivers are users, not endpoints
An alert at 3am wakes someone into maximum panic. Ours arrives with what
happened, what the system already did, what to do in the next sixty
seconds — and what not to say.
Real voices, not synthetic ones
The Memory Vault plays actual recordings made by the people who love you.
We deliberately do not clone anyone's voice. Consent given in calm is
spent in crisis, and a disclosure label does not survive that moment.
What we deliberately did not build
- No sobriety scores, streaks, or gamification. A person
who reports honestly while using is a person we can still protect. A person
who hides is not.
- No model-generated legal claims. Immunity law varies
substantially between states. A hallucinated legal protection is the worst
thing this product could tell someone. Our legal data is static and
human-reviewed.
- No AI in the safety-critical path. Triage is a
deterministic, tested state machine. The generative layer writes language;
it never decides whether you are in danger.
- No data sold, ever, to anyone. Not to insurers, not to
employers, not to law enforcement.
