What Fire Notification offers

Fire and water leads backed by its own radio network and analysts.

Fire Notification sells real-time fire and water property damage leads to fire restoration companies, water mitigation services, public insurance adjusters, contents companies, attorneys and real estate investors (home page). It runs its own software defined radio network of more than 300 nodes and pairs an AI engine with human analysts who monitor territories around the clock (about page). Leads come with property data drawn from public tax, title and municipal records (home page).

What Fire Notification does well

Its own receiver network: a 300+ node software defined radio network that it says captures the full frequency spectrum (about page).
People on duty around the clock. Analysts work 24/7, 365 days a year, and Dispatch Connect lets you chat with an analyst for updates during a live incident (home page).
Deep property detail: assessed and market values, owner and LLC details, owner occupied status, and lender name and loan type (plans page).
A wide range of lead types: fire, water, structural, smoke, weather events and wildfires (leads page).
CRM connections: a HubSpot Marketplace app, webhooks, Salesforce and Zapier (CRM integration page).
Over a decade of archived incident data for trend analysis (about page).
No long-term contracts (plans page).

What IncidentLead is

IncidentLead, from Genesis One, turns live fire and water dispatch into a callable lead. Each lead names the incident in plain words and gives the verified property address, the owner from public records and licensed data, and the phone numbers on file with every number labeled. It reaches the app by push and text about a minute after dispatch, and a dispatch updates timeline shows the radio traffic as the incident unfolds, with a plain-English summary. IncidentLead never dials anyone and never contacts owners: you decide who to call, dial manually, and own your compliance, as the compliance guide for calling after a loss explains.
