Preparedness for everyone — without the noise
Min Beredskap is built to lower the barrier to home preparedness. Not through fear or doomsday thinking — but through calm, practical structure that makes it easy to get started and keep going.
We combine a free app with in-depth articles that answer concrete questions: where to start, what delivers the most impact, and how to build steadily without overdoing it. The goal is a safer everyday life — not a bunker.
Our mission
Make preparedness something people actually do
Most people know they should have a preparedness plan. The problem is rarely willingness — it's that starting feels overwhelming. Where do you begin? What do you actually need? How much is enough?
Min Beredskap exists to answer exactly those questions. We give you a clear plan, concrete steps and an overview that makes it easy to see progress — without requiring you to become an expert.
The app has no subscriptions, paywalls or locked features. Preparedness is for everyone — regardless of budget.
Not just information — but tools that help you actually do something. Log, track, share with your household.
Adapted to Norwegian conditions, recommendations from DSB and what's realistic for Norwegian households.
The principles we build on
Everything we build — from the app to the articles — follows a few clear principles. They guide what we prioritize and how we communicate.
Practical first
We prioritize checklists, concrete suggestions and actionable steps over long theory. The goal is for you to be able to do something right away.
Calm tone
Preparedness isn't about fear. We communicate calmly, factually and without drama. Motivation should come from mastery — not panic.
Start with what matters most
Water, food, warmth and light. We always recommend what delivers the biggest impact first — and help you work down the list in the right order.
Small steps, over time
You don't need to buy everything at once. Do a little now, a little next week. The app shows your progress, and that's what keeps motivation up.
Together is better
Preparedness works best when more people in the household are involved. That's why sharing and collaboration are built into the app from the start.
Transparency and trust
We're clear about what's editorial and what's sponsored. Our advice is independent, and the app doesn't collect data it doesn't need.
A free app and in-depth articles
Min Beredskap consists of two parts that complement each other: an app that gives you overview and structure, and articles that give you knowledge and concrete advice.
The app helps you log what you have, see what's missing, and build a plan tailored to your household. The articles explain why, what and how — from water storage to power preparedness.

Our approach to content
All content on Min Beredskap is written to be understandable, honest and useful. We follow a few clear guidelines to ensure quality and credibility.
We recommend what's feasible for regular households — not the most extreme. The goal is a plan that actually gets followed, not a list no one can complete.
Our advice builds on recommendations from DSB (Norwegian Directorate for Civil Protection) and other official sources. We add practical context — but never replace official guidance.
When content is sponsored or contains affiliate links, it's always clearly labeled. Our advice is independent — we only recommend products we believe have real value.
We review and update content regularly to ensure it's accurate and relevant. Outdated articles are updated or removed.
In acute situations: always follow official guidance. The information on Min Beredskap is general and does not replace official guidance during an emergency.
