About us

We are empowering everyday people to do extraordinary things.

Our story.

Rory Beyer, Moseley Andrews, and Sameer Jafri came together with a seemingly simple idea—that anyone can and should be able to positively impact the outcome of a Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) rescue.

Driven by their complementary skills and background, they met at a conference focused on SCA prevention and quickly came together to share a vision for the profound impact that a more effective solution could have on thousands of families every year.

With Rory and Moseley’s technical expertise and a novel AED concept they had developed at MIT, combined with Sameer’s experience in SCA prevention through his non-profit organization Saving Hearts Foundation, the three co-founded Avive in 2017.

Our mission, vision, and promise.

We strive to increase the survival rate for sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) by proactively empowering people with reliable life-saving tools. With passion and diligence, we meet people at their level and build technology that is as engaging as it is effective.

We transform the SCA rescue scenario from an intimidating call to action into an accessible feat that real people can accomplish without hesitation.

Our vision: That no witnessed SCA goes untreated.

Our promise: To enable anyone to positively impact the outcome of a rescue.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest is a massive global problem, and we believe the status quo is not good enough.

We're committed to ensuring all communities have access to lifesaving technology when and where it's needed most.

Meet the leadership team behind Avive.

We are a team of engineers, doctors, first responders, families, and advocates dedicated to revolutionizing cardiac arrest response. With years of innovation behind us, we’re making AEDs more accessible, effective, and connected than ever.

Through cutting-edge technology and a relentless commitment to saving lives, we’re pushing the boundaries of emergency response.

What matters to us.

Every second counts.

When someone experiences sudden cardiac arrest, their survival chances drop by 7-10% each minute without treatment. That's why we've built a complete cardiac emergency response system that helps get lifesaving care to people faster.

Simple enough for anyone to use.

In an emergency, complexity costs lives. We've designed our AED to be intuitive for any rescuer, with clear voice guidance in English and Spanish, and universal pads that work for both adults and children.

Making lifesaving accessible to all.

Cardiac arrest can happen to anyone, anywhere. We believe everyone should have access to lifesaving technology, which is why we've made our AED more affordable and easier to own through flexible payment options.

Constant innovation.

While AED technology remained largely unchanged for decades, we're committed to continuously advancing emergency response through breakthrough technology and real-world data.

Connected communities.

By connecting AEDs, emergency services, and responders through smart technology, we're building stronger networks of emergency response that can help save more lives.
