Your AI crisis management assistant
Crisis intelligence that acts.Human expertise that leads.
GRIT is an always-on crisis management expert that already knows your sites, services, vendors, people and plans. Call it, text it, email it or work beside it on the web. It does the legwork. Your leaders make the calls.
Built by crisis-management practitioners. Designed for regulated, high-consequence operations.

The night every CRO remembers
02:14
A critical payment provider goes dark. Five thousand alerts light up in five different tools.
02:31
Your crisis lead is on a conference bridge, asking the same question as everyone else: what does this actually break?
03:10
Someone is scrolling a 300-page continuity plan. Someone else is rebuilding a contact spreadsheet. Nobody has written the board update yet.
04:45
The answer arrives. Hours late, from people who should have been leading, not searching.
Thousands of signals. A lean team. Leadership still needs an answer.
Static binders and scattered tools were never built for the speed of modern disruption.
The shift
Not another dashboard. An expert on your team.
Most AI automates a task. GRIT supports the whole crisis-management role, from first signal to final review, and brings every material decision to the right person.

“GRIT, what's changed since the 8 a.m. briefing?”
Two things changed. FedPay confirmed degraded service in the East region, and the Charlotte branch reports normal operations. Retail Payments remains at potential impact. One open unknown: settlement partner status. Want me to prepare a bridge invite for the payments team?

Impact intelligence
Know what it breaks, not just where it is.
GRIT connects every event to the parts of your business that depend on it: sites, critical services, applications, vendors, people and continuity plans. It shows an explainable impact score and says what it means in plain English, with the evidence behind it and the unknowns still open. Your systems of record stay the source of truth.
Explainable scoring
Every score shows its inputs and sources.
Facts, assumptions and unknowns kept apart
Never blended into false confidence.
Your data, your plans
Grounded in your BIA, continuity plans and asset records.

Governance & trust
AI prepares. Humans govern.
Control is built in, not bolted on. You decide what GRIT may do on its own, what it must ask about first, and what only a person can do.
Full auto
Routine internal steps you have pre-approved:
triage, summaries, reminders, status checks.
Ask first
Consequential steps prepared by GRIT, released by a person:
SitReps, notifications, outreach, meeting minutes.
Alert only
Reserved for people. GRIT informs, a human acts:
declaring a crisis, changing continuity plans, system failover.
Never without a human
GRIT never declares a crisis, sends an external alert, changes a continuity plan or triggers a failover on its own.
Your environment
Designed to deploy within your security perimeter.
Your identity controls
SSO, MFA and role-based permissions.
Approved sources only
Answers grounded in your data, with sources shown.
Every action logged
Who, what, when, why and who approved.
Model-agnostic
No lock-in to a single AI provider.
Encrypted
In transit and at rest.
GRIT is designed to support evidence for business continuity and operational resilience expectations, including FFIEC guidance and ISO 22301 practices. It does not replace your compliance program or constitute certification.
Elevate your people
Enterprise-grade crisis capability. Without an enterprise-sized team.
GRIT takes on the monitoring, mapping, chasing and drafting, so your experts spend their time on judgment, leadership and the people who depend on them.
