The problem it solves

You find out about freezing temperatures, snow, or hail after your crews or vehicles are already exposed. Checking the forecast manually every morning is one more thing on your plate, and it's easy to miss a sudden change.

Who it fits

Operations teams responsible for weather-sensitive work like snow removal, outdoor storage, or field crews.

How it works

  1. A daily schedule checks the weather forecast each morning
  2. Conditions are compared against your alert thresholds, like freezing temperatures or hail
  3. If conditions are met, an alert is sent to your on-call team by push, SMS, or voice call
  4. The alert clears automatically on your phone once conditions return to normal
What you get

Severe weather caught before it disrupts crews

Your on-call team gets warned automatically the moment weather conditions turn dangerous for outdoor work.

What you get

An automatic push, SMS, or voice alert to your on-call team when severe weather hits, with automatic resolution when it clears.

What you need

An OpenWeatherMap account and a SIGNL4 account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
