Fully functional on a small screen — use it anywhere, not just at your desk.
Build, review and share full risk assessments from your phone — in a meeting, on site, in the classroom, or in the field. No internet connection needed.
For anyone who manages risk — not just the specialists.
Whether you're running a school excursion, managing a small medical practice, planning a community event, working in government, running a utilities operation, managing a not-for-profit or protecting your team at work — risk is part of what you do. Risk Analyser gives you a clear, visual way to understand and communicate it. No training required.
What's a bowtie diagram? It's a simple visual map of a risk — the event sits in the middle, with what could cause it on the left and what could go wrong if it happens on the right. At a glance, you can see your full picture and where your controls sit.

About Risk Analyser
Risk Analyser was developed by risk consultants frustrated with tools that were too complex, bloated with features nobody uses, prohibitively expensive, or simply not built for Apple devices. Built in Australia.
The bowtie methodology has been a cornerstone of professional risk management for decades — used in aviation, healthcare, energy and government. Risk Analyser brings that rigour to iPhone, iPad and Mac in an interface anyone can use.
Every design decision — from the cognitive science behind the layout to the offline-first architecture — reflects real-world risk assessment needs.
Built on cognitive science
Miller's Law
In 1956, psychologist George Miller demonstrated that the human brain can only hold 7 (±2) items in working memory at once. Overload that limit and decision-making breaks down.
Risk Analyser is designed around this principle. The bowtie structure deliberately organises complex risk information into focused, bounded groups — threats on one side, consequences on the other — so your brain can process each element clearly without becoming overwhelmed.
Chunked information
Threats, controls and consequences are each grouped separately, keeping each chunk within cognitive limits.
Visual clarity over data overload
A single bowtie replaces pages of text — letting you see the full risk picture at a glance, not wade through it.
Better decisions under pressure
When risks are structured to match how the brain works, teams respond faster and more accurately in critical situations.
Simple, transparent pricing
Start free on any platform. The Mac version offers the most powerful experience — larger canvas, easier to navigate, and built for professional workflows.
