Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about Code Alerts, Court Broadcaster, pricing, and court support.

General

What is Call2Reminder?

+

Two products built around drug-court daily messages:

  • Code Alerts for participants who want to stop calling the hotline every morning.
  • Court Broadcaster for courts that want to automate daily message delivery.

How does it work?

+

For supported courts, Call2Reminder reads the published daily message and delivers the result by text, call, or email. Court Broadcaster lets staff generate, approve, schedule, and send those messages from one workflow.

Is this an official court system?

+

No. We work with courts but are not the court. Always follow your court's official instructions.

Code Alerts

How do I get alerts?

+

Sign up, pick your court, choose how you want to be notified, and set your preferred time.

Will I get notified every day?

+

Only if you choose to. There are two modes:

  • Only when my color is called
  • The full daily message every day

What if my court is not listed?

+

Request it. Supported courts are public; missing ones can be submitted for review.

How do I submit a new court?

+

Use the Get Alerts request form. Add the court name and the daily message line if you have it. We review every submission before adding it.

What does $4/month include?

+
  • SMS, call, or email delivery
  • Preferred contact times
  • Color-only or full-message alerts
  • Transcript replay
  • PIN management
  • Free support
  • Spanish where available

How is this different from calling the hotline?

+

You only hear from us when it matters, instead of checking every morning. It also costs far less than older alert services.

Do you support Spanish?

+

Yes. Spanish is supported today. Other languages can be added where courts need them.

Court Broadcaster

How does Court Broadcaster work?

+

Staff prepare the message, preview text and audio, choose channels, and schedule the send. Color days, no-testing days, emergency notices, and generic broadcasts all use the same workflow.

What is text-to-speech automation?

+

Court Broadcaster turns the approved message into a phone call automatically. No daily recording needed.

Can I schedule messages in advance?

+

Yes. Plan a day, a week, or a full month ahead.

What does "set it and forget it" mean?

+

Configure the schedule once; the system keeps running.

Do I need to record messages manually?

+

No. Text-to-speech handles it. Manual recording is optional.

How are participants contacted?

+

Calls, texts, and emails all come from one approved draft.

Can courts send translated messages?

+

Yes. Spanish today; other languages on request.

What if our court is large?

+

2001+ participants use custom pricing and onboarding.

Do we have to commit immediately?

+

No. Pilot first: up to 30 days (text/email) or 14 days (calls), for up to 250 participants.

Pricing

See Pricing for current numbers — it is the single source for both products.

Why is Code Alerts only $4/month?

+

Automation removes the repetitive work, so the price stays low while you still get alert controls, transcript replay, and multiple delivery channels.

How do trials and pilots work?

+
  • Code Alerts trial: 2 weeks free with calling, or 1 month free with text/email only — then $4/month.
  • Court Broadcaster pilot: up to 30 days (text/email) or 14 days (calls), for up to 250 participants. Larger rollouts use a custom pilot.

Technical

How are alerts delivered?

+

By SMS, email, or automated phone call.

Can I choose when I get notified?

+

Yes. Set a preferred contact time so alerts arrive when they help most.

What if I miss a notification?

+

Replay the latest transcript, review Daily Codes history for your court, and keep your settings current.
