What would it take for you to feel truly prepared for a week-long power outage?

Most Americans have thought about it at least once - after a bad storm, after the Texas 2021 collapse, after reading about grid vulnerabilities. But very few have actually done anything about it.

I've been building IsGridUp - a free AI-powered planner that asks you 8 questions about your home and gives you a personalized energy backup plan in under 5 minutes. No signup, no contractor call, no sales pressure.

But before I launch tomorrow, I'm genuinely curious:

If you had to survive a 7-day grid outage starting right now what's your biggest gap?

Just launched Uphill - the Sisyphus-inspired task app.

There's a mode that zooms out to the observable universe when your day is going badly. Another that destroys your journal entries after you write them. And notifications like "The universe is 13.8 billion years old. Your deadline is Tuesday."

Built Uphill because every other task app lies to you with confetti and streaks. This one just pushes back.
Honest feedback welcome - especially if it's brutal.
