Wildfire defense, reengineered. WildfireX connects real-time wildfire intelligence, proprietary AI guidance, remote defense controls, live property monitoring, and evacuation awareness in one intelligent platform—built to help you understand changing conditions and respond with greater confidence. Powered by MAX, the WildfireX Ember Response Copilot, the app combines proprietary AI modeling, real-time intelligence processing, and WildfireX decision algorithms to generate dynamic, system-specific response guidance while keeping you in control. Features include: • MAX AI Ember Response Copilot: transforms evolving wildfire intelligence through proprietary AI models and decision algorithms to provide context-aware guidance for your WildfireX defense system. • Real-Time Wildfire Intelligence: monitor nearby incidents, evolving fire activity, and critical incident information through the WildfireX intelligence platform. • Remote Rooftop & Perimeter Control: activate and manage compatible WildfireX defense zones directly from your iPhone or iPad. • Evacuation Awareness: view available official evacuation warnings and property-specific evacuation status as conditions evolve. • Intelligent Alerts: receive timely MAX, wildfire, evacuation, and system notifications when important conditions change. • Live Property Monitoring: remotely view compatible cameras to assess property conditions and verify system operation before, during, and after activation. • Wildfire Intelligence Map: visualize nearby wildfire activity and understand what is developing around your property. • Property Risk Intelligence: access available location-specific wildfire risk insights generated from trusted regional and national intelligence sources. • System Readiness: monitor connected defense zones, pumps, valves, and supporting equipment from one unified interface. • Water Reserve & Backup Monitoring: monitor compatible pool, tank, well, and dedicated backup-water configurations. WildfireX is engineered to go beyond displaying wildfire data. Our intelligence layer connects evolving conditions with your active property-defense system—helping turn information into actionable guidance when timing matters most. Whether your property uses a pool, tank, well, or dedicated water supply, WildfireX can be configured around the architecture of your defense system. Requirements Remote controls, cameras, pumps, valves, water monitoring, and other connected-system features require a compatible WildfireX installation and internet connectivity. Feature availability may vary by property, region, system configuration, connectivity, and available intelligence sources. Safety Note Always follow official evacuation orders, warnings, and instructions from local emergency authorities. WildfireX provides wildfire intelligence and property-defense support and does not replace official emergency communications or life-safety systems. Know sooner. Act smarter. Stay in control.

Outage Pro is a storm-ready outage tracking app built to help you quickly understand what’s happening on the grid—right now. With a live power outage map, severity indicators, and weather layers, Outage Pro gives you fast clarity during severe weather events so you can make better decisions for your home, family, or community. Search outages by state, county, or utility, then zoom in to see impacted areas and trends. Create a watchlist of the places and providers you care about most, and set custom alerts so you don’t have to keep refreshing. When outages change—up or down—you’ll get notified based on your preferences. Outage Pro is also built for sharing. During storms, information moves through group chats, community pages, and local updates—so the app is designed to make it easy to share a single link or snapshot that keeps people informed. As Outage Pro continues to expand, upcoming improvements will focus on deeper storm context, broader coverage, faster updates, and more tools for partners and communities to distribute outage information quickly and clearly.
