CRU-1

Community Resilience Unit

A portable, offline-first device designed to keep communities informed, guided and connected — precisely when conventional systems fail.

When systems fail, information fails with them.

During disasters, the systems communities rely on for information and communication are often the first to fail. The CRU-1 is designed for exactly that gap.

  • Power fails
  • Mobile networks become congested
  • Internet access disappears
  • Communities become isolated
  • Emergency services become overwhelmed

FAT is designed for that gap.

What the CRU-1 delivers

An integrated set of capabilities designed to work together — offline, in the field, when communities need them most.

Trusted Preparedness Knowledge

Offline access to first aid guidance, emergency procedures and community preparedness resources — no internet required.

Offline AI Assistance

AI-assisted guidance available locally on the device, providing trusted answers when connectivity is unavailable.

Resilient Communications

Multiple communication pathways to keep communities connected and informed during and after emergencies.

Community Resource Hub

A central point for community information, local resources and preparedness coordination before, during and after events.

Offline-First Design

Built from the ground up to operate without internet connectivity — because emergencies don't wait for networks to recover.

Portable & Deployable

Designed for rapid deployment across community hubs, evacuation centres, libraries and remote locations.
