Swarm Intelligent Prepareness: Transforming Disaster Preparedness One Step at a Time

Preppr.ai is on a mission to rethink how we handle disaster preparedness. Right now, it’s only scratching the surface of what’s possible, and there’s so much more to come.

The Bigger Picture: More Than Just Exercise Design

Right now, Preppr is all about making disaster exercise design faster, easier, and smarter. But the real vision goes way beyond that. The bigger goal is to turn it into an all-in-one platform for learning, preparing, and collaborating around disasters. Here’s what that could look like:

  • Everything You Need, All in One Place: Imagine pulling together knowledge bases, open-source intelligence (OSINT), risk models, and other tools into one powerful platform.

  • Making It Simple: Using natural language mapping, Preppr can turn complicated preparedness plans into something clear and actionable for everyone.

Swarm-Intelligent Preparedness: A Big Idea in the Works

What makes Preppr’s vision stand out is its plan to bring people together through opt-in swarms. This feature, called swarm-intelligent preparedness, is still under development, but it holds incredible potential for connecting governments, community groups, and even individual households, all while tailoring the experience for everyone involved.

  • Tailored for You: For governments, it will focus on big-picture planning. For households, it’ll offer bite-sized steps or fun mini-games to help get ready. At each level, Preppr adapts—refining language, adjusting jargon, and focusing efforts.

  • Your Own Preppr Agent: Everyone will get their own AI agent, like a personal chief of staff, that learns what they need and helps them connect with others.

When it’s up and running, these agents won’t just help individuals. They’ll also work together. Picture a community swarm sharing insights with a government swarm—those insights get pulled into exercises automatically, making the whole process faster and smarter.

The goal?

A massive network of shared knowledge and resources that’s accessible and affordable for everyone. This is the challenge we’re tackling with the generous funding support of the NYC Pandemic Response Institute.

Making It Happen

Preppr has already launched a limited beta for solo accounts. While it’s still early days, this milestone marks an important step toward building something truly transformative. The limited beta is giving us a chance to test, learn, and improve with real users, bringing us closer to making this vision a reality for everyone.

If you’re following along, know that this is just the beginning of what Preppr can do. Each step forward gets us closer to the full potential of what this platform can offer—for individuals, communities, and beyond.

Want to Be Part of It?

If this sounds like something you’d love to be part of, now’s a great time to jump in. The registration and vetting process is open, and we’re excited to welcome early adopters who want to shape Preppr into the best tool it can be. Your feedback and ideas will help guide us as we grow.

Together, we can create a stronger, smarter future for disaster preparedness.

Dear Status Quo

By

Justin Snair

The way we’ve always done preparedness is breaking down—and fast. With $218 billion in U.S. disaster losses in 2024 alone and pressure mounting from every direction, it’s clear that the status quo can’t keep up. This piece is a direct message to the outdated systems, legacy tools, and expensive processes still dominating the field—and a call for something better. Preppr is built for the people actually doing the work. Not to modernize the binder, but to replace it entirely.

What My 9-Year-Old's Game Taught Me About the Future of AI Enabled Disaster Preparedness

By

Justin Snair

I've spent years in emergency management, working with complex tabletop exercises (TTXs) designed to test response capabilities and identify gaps in emergency plans. I've seen exercises that took months to design and required teams of subject matter experts to execute. So imagine my surprise when my 9-year-old son created a TTX in just 20 minutes. Using Preppr.ai, our AI-powered emergency planning platform, he designed a tabletop exercise based on something he understood well: Monopoly. The familiar board game became his framework for exploring how communities respond when resources are limited and decisions have consequences.
