Emergency Mode

Contact everyone at once for urgent, last-minute needs

What is Emergency Mode?

Normal outreach contacts people one at a time in priority order. Emergency mode contacts everyone on your list at once. The first person to accept gets the request.

Use it when you need someone right away — a last-minute cancellation, a sudden schedule change, or a same-day need.

Who can use Emergency Mode?

Emergency mode is available on the Coordinator plan only. If you're on a Free, Starter, or Individual plan, the emergency checkbox will be disabled.

If you need emergency mode, you can upgrade to Coordinator on the Pricing page.

How it works

  1. Check Emergency Mode on the outreach form.
  2. Set the Emergency Response Window — how long contacts have to respond (e.g. 60 minutes).
  3. Optionally set a Premium Rate to incentivize quick acceptance.
  4. Send the outreach. Everyone gets emailed simultaneously.
  5. The first person to accept wins. Everyone else is notified the position is filled.

What if nobody responds?

If the emergency window expires without anyone accepting, you have two options:

  • Extend the window — give people more time (you get 1 extension).
  • Fall back to sequential — switch to normal one-at-a-time mode and continue down the list.
