FireReady helps Canadian property owners and property managers review wildfire readiness for a specific property. Use the app to enter a property address, access the FireReady assessment flow, review an assessment PDF, track mitigation tasks, capture exterior 360 video and proof photos, and request reassessment after documented updates. FireReady is not an emergency service and does not guarantee wildfire survival, regulatory approval, or insurance acceptance.
