About Us

Turning wildfire resilience into something homeowners can act on.

BURNGRADE helps homeowners understand the wildfire-resilience conditions around their property, identify practical improvements, and track progress over time. Instead of treating wildfire resilience as one overwhelming project, BURNGRADE turns established mitigation science into a personalized path forward — helping people know where they stand, what to work on next, and how the small changes they make can add up. As more properties participate, those individual journeys can also help build a clearer picture of how wildfire resilience is changing across communities. Over time, BURNGRADE can turn property-level progress into useful community intelligence — while keeping detailed homeowner information private and giving homeowners control over what they choose to share.
