Tutorial

Find your way around

A quick orientation to BePrepared: the four products, where they live, and how to get help. Press Show me around for a guided walkthrough.

The idea

BePrepared brings four things together: watching your area for hazards, building a plan, getting the right supplies, and talking to an expert when you want one. This page shows where each one lives and how to get help without hunting for it.

The four products

Your home dashboard
Your home dashboard
  • BeAware watches the addresses you care about and warns you early when something changes.
  • BeReady turns your household details into a plan you can actually follow.
  • BeEquipped is the kit store, with bundles matched to your plan.
  • BeAdvised connects you with a preparedness expert when you want a hand.

They all live in the left sidebar, grouped under their names. Home is your starting point, and it shows what needs you next.

Getting help anywhere

  • The ? button at the top right of every screen opens help, search, and this walkthrough.
  • Press Cmd or Ctrl + K to search help from anywhere.
  • Use the Show me around button above to replay the guided tour whenever you want it.

Where to start

If you are brand new, set your name and address on Home, then open BeReady and build your first plan. Everything else builds on that.
