What Our Clients Say

Marin Wildfire Prevention Authority Executive Officer

Mark Brown

The Fire Aside grants module has allowed us to continue to expand the financial assistance we offer the residents of Marin. The seamless integration into their defensible space software has made it easy for us to prioritize higher risk & priority items by neighborhood, while reducing staff time spent on administration of the program.

Ventura Regional Fire Safe Council Executive Director

Stephen Watson

The access to the data through the Fire Aside app has influenced our operations quite a bit. The reporting features are powerful. About 95% of our funding is grant funded and the funders want to see metrics, they want to see the effectiveness, the impact of our programs, and without having something that's really cost efficient, we wouldn't really be able to operate.

Boulder Fire Rescue Deputy Fire Chief

Jeff Long

As Boulder Fire-Department continues to create more robust responses and community education pieces about wildfire risks in our community, it is important that we can rely on systems that are already tested to do the work that we need done. Fire Aside is an example of a system that allows us to better engage and inform our community about wildfire risk reduction.

Central Marin Fire Department Chief

Todd Lando

The Marin Wildfire Prevention Authority, was able to build and deploy one of the most active and robust wildfire hazard inspection programs in the United States thanks to Fire Aside’s unique software. Our inspectors are now evaluating more than 30,000 properties annually and documenting measurable improvements in community wildfire resilience.

Santa Clara County Fire Safe Council CEO

Seth Schalet

We have been working with Fire Aside since June 2020 when the Santa Clara County FireSafe Council was looking to automate our county-wide, wildland urban interface (WUI) chipping program and reduce costs. Fire Aside's ChipperDay and Defensible Space Inspection software helped us transform our wildfire risk reduction program. The software is easy to use, customizable and fast to implement.

North Lake Tahoe Fire Chief

Ryan Sommers

By using Fire Aside DSI software, we can visit more homes, offer more thorough action items to residents and therefore dramatically increase the number of fire resistant homes in the community

Truckee Fire Protection District Wildfire Prevention Manager

Eric Horntvedt

As a community we are all adapting to wildfire. Truckee Fire teamed up with Fire Aside to use leading edge defensible space inspection software to clearly communicate fuels that need to removed around homes, and what steps can be taken to harden homes to embers. This puts best-practice wildfire information, tailored to a specific home, in the hands of our residents so that they can work through a mitigation checklist to prepare and protect.

Santa Rosa Assistant Fire Marshal

Jared McDaniel

It has huge appeal. It’s the most simplistic application I’ve ever seen.

Berkeley Fire Chief

David Sprague

Fire Aside has been a game changer and the return on investment has been incredible....We have demonstrated just how effective using a tool like Fire Aside can be to modernize an inspection program.
