About OZZI
From personal mission to mission-critical protection
A Mission Born from Experience
OZZI was founded by Isaiah Lopez, whose early life was shaped by instability and exposure to risk — including five incidents of gun violence before age fifteen. Those experiences inspired a lifelong mission to build tools that help people feel safer and more connected when life becomes unpredictable.
After the Paris terrorist attacks reshaped global travel, Isaiah built large-scale safety technology for American Express, delivering real-time travel intelligence to more than 50 million customers across 200 markets. That work led to the creation of OZZI — a safety platform authorized and used within the U.S. Department of Defense to help protect military families and support mission-critical operations, including during the Afghanistan evacuation.
The same mission-grade technology originally designed for military communities now powers the OZZI platform for everyday travelers. Today, OZZI is an AI-driven safety companion that delivers real-time alerts, global risk maps, location-aware intelligence, and geofenced guidance worldwide. By partnering with leading insurers, airlines, and online travel agencies, OZZI transforms passive travel insurance into proactive protection — keeping people informed, prepared, and safer wherever they go.
The Problem We're Solving
Traditional travel safety is broken. Here’s what we’re changing.
Outdated Information
Government travel advisories are often weeks or months behind real-time events
No Local Context
Generic city-wide warnings don't help when you need neighborhood-level intel
Disconnected Families
Parents and partners worry constantly when loved ones travel abroad
Information Overload
Too many apps, alerts, and news sources create confusion instead of clarity
Emergency Gaps
In a crisis, finding local emergency numbers and services is difficult
Language Barriers
Critical safety information is often only available in local languages
