System of record · hazard & threat data

The plan expires in five years.The record shouldn't.

Hazzard holds what your hazard decisions rest on — the plans, the hazards and threats, the jurisdictions, the facilities, the actions, and the evidence under all of it. Every finding cited to a source page. Every feed stamped with its vintage.

One record. Fifteen towns or one. Yours either way.

The starting point

Your risk picture is spread across documents, departments, jurisdictions, and vendors.

A city manager or emergency management director assembles the community's risk picture from plans written at different times, with different methods, different accuracy, and different geographic scopes. Some are current; some are obsolete. Some hazards are well studied; others are assumptions. That isn't poor management — it's structural complexity.

How it works

From scattered documents to a defensible risk picture — as a guided, reviewable workflow.

Step 1 of 5

Define your footprint

Boundaries are only the start. Add facilities, service territories, corridors, and the upstream places — like the dam in the next county — whose failures land on you. Risk follows systems, watersheds, and dependencies, not just administrative lines.

Step 2 of 5

Bring in what you already know

Upload mitigation plans, emergency plans, studies, consultant reports, and GIS layers. Hazzard extracts findings and keeps each one tied to its source, date, method, and geographic scope. Not all documents are equal — and extracted information never silently becomes truth.

Step 3 of 5

Build the risk inventory

Start with a clear answer to: what are we actually at risk from? A structured hazard list with subtypes, local aliases, cascading risks, and threats that originate outside your boundary — established by an authorized approver, and extendable later without starting over.

Step 4 of 5

Profile each risk

Probability, impact, and readiness — with the evidence, confidence level, and open gaps behind every conclusion. Not just “could this happen,” but how likely it is, what it could affect, how prepared you are today, and what new data would improve confidence.

Step 5 of 5

Review, coordinate, and keep it current

Staff, consultants, departments, and partners see what needs review, who owns the next decision, and what changed since the last version. The picture stays current between plan cycles instead of disappearing into a static PDF.

Every change is recorded: who, what, when, and what it superseded
Evidence, not assertions

Two things come out of a document. Only one of them gets kept.

Every finding Hazzard extracts has to quote the document it came from, and that quote is checked against the actual text of the actual page before anything is written down. When it doesn't match, the finding is thrown out and the rejection is logged with its reason — visible to you, in the run history, next to what survived.

What a document says

Quoted verbatim, anchored to a page, dated to the version it came from.

What the system inferred

Labelled as inference, with the model, prompt and taxonomy versions that produced it.

What a person decided

Findings become official when an authorized approver says so. A machine never overwrites that.

Security & accountability

Built for sensitive information and accountable decisions.

Real organizations hold information they cannot share broadly: security plans, utility vulnerabilities, hospital continuity details, facility-specific risks. Hazzard is designed around that reality, not around it being an edge case.

Role- and scope-based permissions

Organization, project, and document-level access. A partner can contribute to one assessment without seeing everything else.

Audit history on every change

Who changed what, when, and what it superseded — approvals, version history, and export records included.

Sensitive-document handling

Law-enforcement-sensitive material, critical-infrastructure details, and partner-restricted data carry their classification through every workflow.

Your data stays yours

Clear data ownership and export controls. Consultant and partner work product stays attributed and governed by your permissions.

A note on candor: Hazzard is in beta, and we don't claim certifications we haven't earned. Security and auditability are foundational to how we're building — and beta partners help define the controls their operating environment actually requires. If your security review needs something specific, tell us. That's what the beta is for.
