Highlights
  • Risk re-ranking by worst-year impact
  • Three-point risk range input
  • Correlation matrix visualization
  • Crisis scenario simulation
  • Error band and sampling error visibility
  • Reproducible results via seed
  • Calibration correction

Every risk register on earth ranks by likelihood times consequence. That ranking answers which risk is biggest on average. Nobody funds mitigation for the average - they fund it for the year that hurts. KEYSTONE re-ranks your risks by their share of the worst years, and the two rankings routinely disagree. THE REGISTER State each risk as a three-point range: how often it happens, how bad it is when it does. Minimum, most likely, maximum - the range you actually believe. KEYSTONE turns your ranges into distributions; you never have to name one. THE MATRIX Risks do not fail politely, one at a time. Set how strongly each pair moves together with a tap. Correlation is what the tail is made of, and it is the input almost every simple tool ignores. THE RANK FLIP KEYSTONE samples your whole portfolio tens of thousands of times through the correlation matrix, then allocates the tail back to the individual risks by the Euler principle - each risk's exact share of the worst years, summing to the portfolio total. The result is two rankings side by side: the register's order and the tail's order, with an arrow on every risk they disagree about. A risk sitting seventh on your register and first in the tail is the finding this app exists for. THE CLIFF Drag one slider and watch every correlation converge toward 1 - a crisis, when everything moves together. The distance between the left edge and the right edge is your diversification, and it is the first thing a real crisis takes away. KEYSTONE tells you the crisis premium still ahead of you. HONEST ABOUT ERROR The tail is an estimate. KEYSTONE bootstraps an error band onto its own numbers and prints it next to them. Auto re-sample re-runs the simulation continuously with a stepping seed so you can watch the estimates breathe - that wobble is sampling error made visible, and no number here pretends to more precision than it has. REPRODUCIBLE BY SEED Every run is driven by a printed seed. Quote it in the shareable report and anyone with KEYSTONE and your register reproduces every number exactly. Risk numbers you can audit. CALIBRATION People state ranges that are too narrow. The calibration correction widens every severity range by a factor you control - and if you track your own forecasting record in R-MAP Caliber, free on the App Store, you can use your measured overconfidence as that factor. FREE AND FULL Free: the complete worked example portfolio - eight risks, correlations preset, every screen live - plus up to five risks of your own. One purchase unlocks unlimited risks and correlation editing. No subscription. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything stays on your device. No account, no sign-in, no analytics, no tracking. The only network activity is the App Store purchase itself, handled by Apple. Built by R-MAP LLC.

Buyments - pay registered businesses in Kuwait safely, without risky payment links. Fake payment links are one of the most common scams today: a message on WhatsApp, SMS or social media that looks like a real shop, but leads to a page built to steal your card details. Buyments was built to protect you from that. Every business on Buyments is a registered merchant, and every payment request from them is waiting for you inside the app - so you never have to trust a link to know who you are paying. WHY PAY THROUGH THE APP - Registered businesses: payment requests come only from merchants registered on Buyments. - No suspicious links: sign in and see exactly what you owe to merchants you deal with, then pay from inside the app. - Know before you pay: review the merchant and the order details before you confirm anything. - Protected payments: for higher-value sales, a merchant can mark a payment as protected. You confirm your phone with a WhatsApp code and verify your identity once with your Civil ID and a live selfie, then pay by KNET. After the first time, a WhatsApp code is enough. - Secure checkout: payments are processed by licensed providers - UPayments (KNET and cards) and Deema (buy now, pay later) - on their own secure checkout pages. - Your card stays private: Buyments never sees or stores your card number. - Encrypted connections: all data between the app and our servers is encrypted in transit. FOR MERCHANTS Give your customers a payment experience they can trust, and stop losing sales to people who are afraid to tap a link. - Orders: create a full order or use Quick Order for a one-off amount, record cash payments, and open any order for its full detail and payment history. - Payment requests: send a payment request for any amount that your customer can pay safely inside the app, or share a link when you need to. - Protected links: switch on "Protected link" for higher-value orders, so your customer is confirmed with a WhatsApp code and a one-time identity check before paying by KNET. - Invoices: share any paid order's invoice as a PDF. - Customers: keep a customer list and see what each one has ordered and paid. - Deema BNPL: turn buy-now-pay-later on or off and configure it for your account. - Notifications: get an alert the moment a payment arrives, and follow a pending order live on your Lock Screen. - Devices: see the devices signed in to your account and sign out any you don't recognise. Identity checks are carried out by Shufti Pro on Buyments' behalf. ENGLISH AND ARABIC The whole app works in English and Arabic, and you can switch at any time. Buyments is built by iDeveloprs in Kuwait. Support: support@buyments.com Privacy policy: https://buyments.com/privacy Terms of service: https://buyments.com/terms
