FireRiskHere Watch
Every address you’re responsible for, checked against the federal wildfire feed every 15 minutes.
Your properties on one map with the wildfires the federal incident feed lists near them. An email (or text) when a new fire is reported inside your distance, and when a listed fire’s size and distance put one of your places at watch or threat level — with the fire’s name, size, measured distance, and the official incident source. Built for vacation-rental managers, HOAs and Firewise communities, insurance agencies, and anyone responsible for more than a few addresses.

How it works
-
1
Paste your addresses
One per line, or a CSV. We geocode each one and show you what we found before it goes live.
-
2
We check the federal feed
Every 15 minutes we compare each address with the NIFC WFIGS incident list and its mapped perimeters, plus NASA FIRMS satellite heat matched to those incidents. What is not reported to that feed, we cannot see — the full list of sources, rules and limits.
-
3
You get an email you can act on
Email (text on Pro and up) naming the fire, its reported size, the measured distance to your place, the rule that made it a watch or a threat, and the official incident source. The app shows when each place was last checked, so silence is never ambiguous.
Who it’s for
Vacation-rental managers
Dozens of cabins across three counties and guests who text you first. See which listings have a listed fire near them, and how far, before you have to answer.
HOAs and Firewise communities
Every lot in the community on one map, with an email to the board and the block captains when the feed lists a new fire nearby.
Independent insurance agencies
Your book of business as a watch list. Reach policyholders who have a listed fire near them with a check-in instead of a claims call.
Senior living, camps, property managers
Sites where evacuation takes hours, not minutes. Knowing sooner that a fire is listed nearby is one more input — official evacuation orders remain the trigger.

Data and limits
Data: NIFC WFIGS incident locations and perimeters, NASA FIRMS satellite heat matched to those incidents, refreshed every 15 minutes. Watch reports what that feed lists; it cannot see a fire that has not been reported to it, structure fires, or anything else, and mapped perimeters can lag the ground by hours. Status (watch / threat) is a rule on each listed fire’s size and measured distance, shown in full in the app. Watch supplements — never replaces — official emergency alerts. Awareness only; always follow local authorities.
The same feed powers the free national map; details are on the methodology page.
Questions
Where does the fire data come from?
NIFC WFIGS incident locations and perimeters (the same interagency feed used by federal and state fire agencies) plus NASA FIRMS satellite hotspots. We pull it every 15 minutes and check every address you have loaded against the current picture.
How do alerts work?
Two kinds. New-fire emails: you set a distance for your portfolio (and optionally per place); when the federal feed lists a new fire inside it, you get an email naming the fire, its reported size, the distance, and the official incident source. Status alerts: every 15 minutes each place is scored against every listed fire by size and measured distance (a fire 200 yards away is a threat at any size; a 10,000-acre fire is a threat within 8 miles and worth watching within 25); when a place moves to watch or threat, or back, you get an email (and a text on Pro and Portfolio) that states the numbers and the rule. The app shows when each place was last checked.
Does this replace official emergency alerts?
No. Watch is an awareness layer for people responsible for many addresses, built on the federal incident feed — it cannot see a fire that has not been reported to that feed. Evacuation orders come from county sheriffs and local emergency management. Keep those channels on for every property; Watch tells you where to look first.
Can I load a CSV of addresses?
Yes. Paste one address per line or upload a CSV; we geocode each row and show you what we found before it goes live. Pro and Portfolio also export your places and alert history as CSV.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Paid tiers are month to month (or annual with two months free). Cancel from the account page or by replying to any email from us; there are no contracts and no cancellation fees.
