Roadside Technology

Allstate is leading the charge for change



We believe getting rescued should be easy.

That's why we developed a mobile app so easy to use, it won both the CIO 100 Innovation Leadership Award and the InformationWeek Elite 100 Award in 2016. Not too shabby.

The Good Hands Rescue® app is just one of the ways that Allstate Roadside Services is leading the industry in roadside technology. We offer a stack of digital tools that make the roadside experience simple and frictionless. Choose the products and services that best suit your business:

  • Embed roadside service into your existing app. Add value to your brand's existing mobile app with our roadside APIs. We offer open APIs that allow your web developers to embed our roadside technology into your digital world, helping to drive your brand presence with customers.
  • Let us build you an app. No app? No problem! We can build you a roadside app with your company branding. It's a great way to show you care about your customers' safety — and it's something they'll carry with them wherever they go.
  • Offer digital solutions to non-digital customers. We recognize that not all customers want to use an app. Some still prefer to speak to a live agent. Our Rescue Tracker solution delivers the best of the digital world (GPS tracking, rescue status updates) to your customer's smartphone while they speak to an agent.
  • Offer customers a pay-per-use alternative. If a branded solution is not important, just download the award-winning Good Hands RescueSM app, which delivers roadside assistance on a pay-per-use basis.
  • Prevent roadside events before they happen. With connected car technology, we're creating a future where roadside events can be detected before they occur.

Digital solutions for non-digital customers

Customers who do not have the mobile app still get digital roadside experience through Rescue Tracker. A rescue gives the customer the option of receiving a SMS text message with a link. Clicking on the link opens a screen that delivers the same features and benefits of the mobile app:

  • Contact information for their service provider
  • Status updates from their driver en route
  • GPS tracking of their driver on a map
  • Customer satisfaction survey details
