PRESKO is a web-based, mobile-first application that provides real-time local heat indices and personalized dashboards based on user type — such as students, outdoor workers, office employees, and home-based users. With tailored “InitTips”, Presko helps users adapt their daily routines to the weather and stay safe during rising temperatures.
The app also features an interactive map that helps users locate the nearest “PreskoSpots” — designated cool areas or safe zones where people can rest, recover, and stay hydrated during extreme heat.
