What ReadyKit does
Most emergency kits are built once and then forgotten. The granola bars expire, the AA batteries leak, the kids' meds in the go-bag are two sizes ago — and you only find out when the hurricane cone is already on the news. ReadyKit exists for the other 364 days: it keeps a living inventory of every kit you own and tells you what's about to go stale before it matters. Create a kit for each bag and bin — the go-bag by the door, the home supply shelf, the car kit in the trunk. Add items with a category, a quantity and, for anything perishable, an expiry or replace-by date. Batteries get a 3-to-5-year replacement cycle even if the package never printed one; water gets a rotation date; prescription meds get the date on the label. The Expiry Radar pulls every dated item across every kit into one timeline, so a five-minute glance replaces the annual dig-through. When a season turns, ReadyKit turns with it. Pick the hazards that apply to you — hurricane, wildfire, winter storm, earthquake — and work through a pre-season checklist built from standard preparedness guidance: confirm water days per person, swap summer clothes for winter layers, test the radio, restock the first-aid pouch. Each kit then carries a readiness score, computed from coverage and expired-item counts, so you can actually answer whether your family could ride out 72 hours. ReadyKit is completely offline and has no accounts. Everything is stored locally on your device with SwiftData — your inventory of supplies, medications and home locations never touches a server, which is exactly how a preparedness app should behave when the power and the network are down. • Unlimited kits: go-bag, home, car, office, pet • Per-item expiry and replace-by dates for food, water, meds and batteries • Expiry Radar: every dated item, one timeline • Seasonal checklists for hurricane, wildfire, winter and earthquake • Readiness score per kit, per person covered • 100% offline, no account, free Download ReadyKit and make this the last year your emergency kit expires without telling you.

Why it exists
The problem
Emergency kits decay silently: food, water, OTC and prescription meds, and batteries all expire on different cycles, and standard guidance (Ready.gov, REI) says to re-check kits every six months — a chore almost nobody actually schedules. Surveys show 47% of Americans bought supplies in the past year but far fewer mai…
What's different
How ReadyKit stands out
Unlike Binventory, which answers 'which bin is this thing in?' for general household storage, ReadyKit is purpose-built around freshness and coverage: every item carries an expiry or replace-by date, kits earn readiness scores against water/food-days targets, and seasonal hazard checklists drive a maintenance cadence.…
