Built by a U.S. Army Counter Intelligence Agent & Combat Veteran
Steadwise is built by a U.S. Army Counter Intelligence Agent & Combat Veteran who served during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
He built Steadwise for the people he trusts most: families who intend to take care of their own when the lights go out. It's made to put real, verifiable knowledge back in your hands — on hardware you own, with no one else in the loop.
For those who value Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Survival.
When the grid blinks, your knowledge shouldn't vanish
Your recipes, manuals, and how-tos live on someone else's servers. The day the cell tower goes quiet — the kid is bleeding, the canner is venting wrong, the well pump is making a noise — the answer is somewhere else entirely. Steadwise puts it back in the room, on a device you own, in plain English you can verify.
Get out. Dig in. Thrive.
Steadwise isn't just a bug-out app. It's the knowledge to leave, the knowledge to build, and the knowledge to live well once you're there.
Get out
Bug-out routes, load-outs and rally points. Offline maps and land navigation when GPS dies. Radio comms when the towers go quiet. The plan that moves your family out of the city clean — because you built it before you needed it.
Bug-out · Maps · Navigation · CommsDig in
Water you can trust, from well to rain barrel. Shelter you can build and heat. Power you can generate — size the solar array, wire the battery bank, keep the generator alive. Treat the wound when the ER is sixty miles away. Hold the property line.
Water · Shelter · Power · Medical · SecurityThrive
Grow your own food — what to plant for your region, when to plant it, how to nurture it, when to harvest, and how to preserve every jar of it. Raise livestock. Keep your children learning with a complete K-12 classical education. Defend what you've built — and live well, not just alive.
Crops · Livestock · Education · Defense54 domains. One answer engine. Zero internet required.
A reference that thinks — not a folder of PDFs
A real AI — on your device
Steadwise carries its own AI model — the same kind of large language model behind the big-name chatbots, but running entirely on your computer or phone, with no internet. Ask in plain English; it finds the real chapter, explains it in plain words, and links the source so you can check every answer yourself.
On-device · Cites its sources54 domains, deep
Water, food preservation, livestock, herbalism, medical first-aid, energy, navigation, comms, security and more — real homesteading depth, not just bug-out tactics.
Public-domain · Audit-cleanTools, not just chat
Working calculators where an LLM is weak: canning times, solar bank sizing, ballistics, reloading data, and offline maps.
Mini-app libraryIt stays on your device. Period.
The AI, the search, and the whole library run on your own computer or phone. Steadwise never uploads your questions — or any information about you — to any server, and you are never tracked by any company or any government. Unplug from the internet for good and it still works.
No accounts · No cloud · No trackingDesktop + iPhone
Steadwise runs where you need it — a Windows desktop powerhouse at home, and a field-ready iPhone & iPad version. Same library, same AI, same cited answers on both.
Two platformsBring your own videos
Import your own how-to videos and docs. Steadwise transcribes, indexes, and lets you watch them offline — or ask the AI about what's inside.

Is this plant safe? What left this track? Which fitting is this? Snap a photo and Steadwise identifies it against your library — and you can photograph pages from your own books to pull them into your library the same way.
Identify · Ingest · On your deviceBuilt around your plan
Load your bug-out routes, shelter specs, med lists and family plan. Steadwise folds your material into its answers — so it's not generic advice, it's your family's playbook for your land.
Your family · Your land · Your planYour business is nobody else’s business
Everything stays on your device. Steadwise never uploads your questions or your information to any server, and you are never tracked by any government or private company — ever.
Even your own videos — indexed, searchable, offline
Drop in the videos you trust — your recordings, your field footage, content you have the right to use. Steadwise turns them into part of your AI's brain and keeps them playable when the internet is gone.

Coming soonIllustrated packs
Full-resolution diagrams, extra angles and photo galleries for any domain — beyond the generous illustrated set that already ships in the base.
Optional downloadBuilt from sources that stood the test of time
Steadwise's library isn't scraped off the internet. It's drawn from the most battle-tested public-domain references America has produced — then authored into illustrated chapters, indexed, and wired to an AI that cites the exact chapter behind every answer.
Every source is documented and commercially clean — no pirated PDFs, no murky rights, nothing that vanishes when a lawyer sends a letter. And when you add your own books, videos and notes, they join the library and get cited the same way.
Built on public-domain U.S. government works. Steadwise is independent and not endorsed by any government agency.
The survival AI that shows its work
Most survival apps hand you static PDFs — or a chatbot that answers from a black box. When you're betting on the answer, Steadwise does the thing that matters: it shows you exactly where the answer came from.
