Data & Methodology Audit
We hold the FireRisk to a standard most risk tools don’t publish: every dataset is a primary government source, every external link is verified to its official owner, and the scoring model is documented down to the arithmetic.
Every source, verified & linked
The primary datasets behind FireRisk. Every link below was verified to resolve to its official owner in June 2026.
Live feeds are monitored around the clock — see real-time health on the system status page. When a feed is down, we say so and point you to the official source rather than showing stale data.
The standard we hold every link and fact to
Primary sources only. Every data point and external link resolves to a government or official agency (.gov / federal program) — the original owner of the data, not an aggregator.
No proprietary or paywalled scores. We don’t resell a third-party black-box risk number. The FireRisk is computed only from open federal datasets, with the formula and raw values published.
Dated and re-checked. Links and facts are re-verified on a schedule; this audit was last completed in June 2026. Live feeds are monitored continuously on our status page.
We show our work. The full weighting, the renormalization rule, the raw RPS value, and the confidence level appear on the report and the methodology page — anyone can audit the math.
Independent, with disclosure. FireRisk.ai is not an insurer, agent, or financial/tax advisor. Where we connect you with a partner (contractor, restoration, insurance), we disclose that we may be compensated. Editorial ratings are never sold.
See something off?
Accuracy is the product. If you find a broken link, a stale figure, or a source we should add, tell us and we’ll verify and correct it.
