Built in Quincy.
Open to everyone.
It started with one radio in one window.
We put a single receiver in a window in Quincy, Massachusetts, and listened. In its first day it heard more than two thousand fire department radio transmissions across Greater Boston, and more water calls than fires.
Almost everything that happens to a building in a city goes out on that radio first. It is public, but almost nobody can follow it: it is fast, clipped and gone in seconds, and by the next day it is only a rumor.
Skybird turns it into a public record anyone can read: our own receivers, AI that reads dispatch like a dispatcher, and addresses checked before they get a pin. The code goes public soon, so anyone can run a node and put their own town on the map.
Run the radios.
We run our own receivers instead of reselling someone else's feed. If a channel goes quiet, we know within minutes. Soon anyone will be able to run one.
Hold, don't guess.
A pin at the wrong address is worse than no pin. When the radio is unclear, the system waits for the next transmission instead of guessing.
Show the work.
Every call keeps its audio and its transcript. When the system is wrong, you can see it.
Respect the radio.
Fire radio is public, but what it carries is someone's worst day. Medical calls are deleted automatically and never shown.
