01App · Doomsday Alert, the early-warning app

In an emergency, every hour counts.

We watch the signals that often come before major crises, around the clock. When the situation escalates, you get the early warning. So you have time to protect yourself and your family.

An index from 0 to 100 and 5 levels, built from signals that move before a crisis.

How the early warning works

01

We watch the warning signs

Embassies pull out staff. Travel and airspace warnings go up. Airspace empties. Sampling aircraft like the WC-135 get moved. The WHO reports new pathogens.

02

We turn them into one level

Everything feeds an index from 0 to 100 and a level from 1 to 5. Every number has a source. "Why" shows which signal adds the points.

03

You get the early warning

You choose the level at which we warn you, by push or email. Quiet hours if you like.
