Why we created Darkhorse Risk
Prevention is hard to prioritize without clear, visual evidence.
Convincing stakeholders to invest in prevention is difficult—especially when the risk isn’t obvious. Many departments struggle to make the case for programs like home safety visits, fire education, or resource reallocation when all they have is static PDFs and gut instinct. City leaders want to help. But they need something they can see and understand.

Risk reduction is more important than ever. But most tools aren’t keeping up.
Call volumes are climbing. Budgets are tightening. And the root causes—aging buildings, high-risk populations, and preventable emergencies—often go unaddressed. Without actionable risk data, fire departments are lacking a proper risk reduction strategy – stuck reacting instead of preventing.

Traditional CRAs are slow, expensive, and out of date before they’re even printed.
Fire departments are often forced to choose between spending thousands on a one-time risk assessment—or building one manually using outdated spreadsheets and anecdotal data. Either way, the result is often the same: a binder full of charts no one has time to read.

Reduce response costs. Reclaim your budget.
Every 911 response has a price tag—fuel, staffing, wear on apparatus, and time lost for the next call. Darkhorse Risk helps you reduce preventable incidents through targeted, data-informed prevention strategies. That means fewer calls, less strain on your frontline crews, and real savings your department can reinvest.
