GOVERNANCE & DECISION SUPPORT
Protecting Minds. Preserving Lives.
Proactive blast exposure risk management for military and tactical operations.
Most systems tell you what happened after exposure occurs. Blast Buddy helps commanders decide what to do before the next blast occurs.
Built by operators and backed by science, Blast Buddy brings exposure data, cognitive performance, biomarker insights, and operational planning into one decision-support platform.
Blast exposure is unavoidable. Poor management is not.
Military and tactical personnel are exposed to blast during breaching, heavy weapons training, range activities, and specialised operations. The issue is not that these activities occur. The issue is that exposure is often managed through fragmented records, manual processes, individual judgement, and retrospective reporting. By the time many systems identify a problem, the exposure has already happened.
Fragmented Visibility
Cumulative exposure is difficult to track across teams, courses, and training cycles, leaving critical gaps in individual health records.
Readiness Impact
Operational readiness is compromised when risk is not managed early. Retrospective identification of injuries is a failure of governance.
Decision Blindness
Commanders lack visibility of personnel approaching risk thresholds. Existing tools measure events without supporting pre-activity decisions.
Reactive Failure
By the time many systems identify a problem, the exposure has already occurred, missing the critical window for proactive intervention.
SOLUTION
A governance platform for blast exposure risk.
Blast Buddy gives organisations a structured system to plan, predict, alert, adapt, execute, and validate blast exposure risk across training and operations.
It brings operational planning, sensor data, cognitive testing, biomarker insights, and risk thresholds into one decision-support environment.
The result is not less training. The result is smarter training.
REACTIVE APPROACHES
- Measure what happened after exposure has occurred.
- Create historical records.
- Support post-event review.
- Often miss the window for intervention before the next activity.
From Reactive Tracking to Proactive Risk Management
Blast Buddy is not another retrospective reporting tool. It helps organisations forecast, manage, and validate blast exposure risk before personnel become overexposed.
PROACTIVE: BLAST BUDDY
- Forecast risk before the next exposure.
- Alert when personnel or teams approach defined thresholds.
- Recommend practical controls before training continues.
- Validate actual exposure and operator response after the activity.
The Blast Buddy Decision Cycle
Plan → Predict → Alert → Adapt → Execute → Validate
Blast Buddy creates a closed-loop decision cycle that helps organisations plan safer activities, make informed adjustments, complete the training, and improve the next event.
01. Plan
Model blast exposure risk before training or operations begin.
02. Predict
Forecast cumulative exposure and identify personnel, teams, or activities approaching elevated risk.
03. Alert
Provide early warnings before exposure thresholds are exceeded.
04. Adapt
Recommend practical controls such as NEQ, stacking position, distance, cover, and personnel allocation.
05. Execute
Conduct training and operations while maintaining capability, readiness, and acceptable risk.
06. Validate
Confirm actual exposure through data and feed real-world outcomes back into the planning cycle.
A Closed-Loop Strategic Imperative
Blast Buddy doesn’t just record blast exposure. It helps organisations plan, predict, manage, and continuously improve blast exposure risk before the next blast occurs.
Built for high-risk training and operational environments.
Military Training
Manage cumulative exposure across courses, serials, and training cycles while maintaining operational tempo.
Breaching Operations
Support better decisions around charge selection, NEQ, stacking distance, cover, and personnel rotation.
Heavy Weapons
Track and manage exposure from repeated firing events across individuals and teams.
Special Operations
Support high-tempo units where exposure risk is frequent, variable, and operationally unavoidable.
Tactical Law Enforcement
Help specialist units manage explosive entry and training exposure while preserving capability.

Readiness depends on the people you protect.
Blast exposure risk is not only a medical issue. It is a readiness, safety, governance, and command issue. Commanders are already expected to manage this risk. Blast Buddy gives them a practical system to do it with better visibility, better evidence, and better decision support.
Outcomes
Reduce unnecessary cumulative exposure
Maintain training tempo and readiness
Support duty-of-care and governance
Improve confidence in risk controls
Generate data for research and policy
Built by Operators. Backed by Science.
Blast Buddy was developed by former Special Operations personnel who have experienced the problem firsthand. The platform is built alongside engineers, researchers, medical advisors, and technology partners to support a practical, science-informed approach. It is designed for real-world environments where decisions need to be made quickly, safely, and without unnecessary disruption to training.
