Our Emergency Alert Generation Tool is Now Freely Available Under Creative Commons

Preppr.ai has released its "Ask Preppr Action: Preparedness Alert & Warning Template Generation" protocol, a sophisticated, multi-agent system that runs in Large Language Models to help public safety officials create effective and compliant emergency alerts. The tool guides users through a structured, research-based workflow to generate templates for various platforms while enforcing FEMA/IPAWS standards and ethical guidelines. Arguing that life-saving tools should be widely accessible, the company is making the protocol freely available under a Creative Commons (CC BY-SA 4.0) license to foster greater accessibility, innovation, and transparency in the emergency management community.

At Preppr.ai, our goal is to leverage technology to build more resilient communities. A critical part of emergency management is clear, fast, and effective public communication. To help achieve this, we developed a powerful, research-backed tool—the Ask Preppr Action: Preparedness Alert & Warning Template Generation protocol—designed to help public safety officials create high-quality emergency alerts.

Today, we're excited to make this protocol freely available to everyone.

What is the Alert Generation Tool?

This isn't just a simple template filler. It's a comprehensive, multi-agent system designed to run in advanced Large Language Models (LLMs). Here’s what it does:

  • Guides Users Step-by-Step: It walks the user through a structured, phase-based workflow to ensure no critical information is missed.

  • Ensures Best Practices: The protocol incorporates findings from cutting-edge research on public warnings and missing persons alerts to maximize effectiveness.

  • Maintains Compliance: It enforces FEMA/IPAWS standards, including character limits and the mandatory inclusion of protective actions.

  • Provides a Safety Net: Using a built-in confidence framework and ethical guardrails, it prevents common errors, refuses malicious requests, and ensures messages are clear, calm, and actionable.

  • Generates Multi-Platform Content: The final output is a professional, ready-to-use table with alert templates tailored for different platforms (like IPAWS, WEA, and social media), languages, and audiences.

The system is built on a sophisticated structure that includes specialized AI "agents" for information gathering, compliance checks, and content generation. It also contains details from the Warning Lexicon, with evidence based language for dozens of hazards, impacts, and protective actions.

Why Creative Commons?

We believe that the tools for saving lives and protecting communities should be in as many hands as possible. Releasing this work under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License (CC BY-SA 4.0) serves several key purposes:

  1. Accessibility: It removes barriers, allowing any agency—regardless of size or budget—to use and benefit from this advanced tool.

  2. Innovation: It empowers developers, researchers, and other emergency management professionals to build upon our work, adapt it for new use cases, and contribute to its evolution.

  3. Transparency: By making our logic and research attributions public, we aim to foster trust and encourage a higher standard for AI-driven tools in the public safety space.

Our mission is to enhance preparedness for all. By sharing this tool, we hope to contribute to a global community working together to create safer, more informed, and more resilient communities.

I was wrong about AI

By

Justin Snair

Like many in emergency management and business continuity, I saw AI as a productivity boost—extracting details from plans, generating scenarios, drafting reports. The tool worked great. But I was solving the wrong problem. We don't have a content creation problem in EM/BC. We create plenty of plans and reports. Our real challenges are deeper: coordination failures, engagement gaps, and tacit knowledge trapped in silos.

The View from Mount Stupid: An AI Warning for Emergency Management

By

Justin Snair

This isn't just a critique; it's a cautionary tale from someone who has ridden the AI hype cycle from its breathtaking peak to its disillusioning valley. Before our field repeats the same mistakes we made with the internet—embracing a powerful tool while ignoring its capacity to create cascading crises—we must look at the forgotten history of our last technological revolution. This is a call for wise, responsible adoption, not a blind leap of faith from a summit of overconfidence.
