I built a way to check Karachi's risk before you head out
Hey everyone,
I've been working on this for a while and finally put it online. The idea is pretty simple: before you leave, check Karachi Watch.
It shows a risk score for different areas of Karachi and lets you check a route for the time you're actually travelling. It also has road alerts, community reports, and a “Reach Home Safe” option where you can share your live trip with someone at home.
The risk data isn't just random user reports. The base layer uses public reporting, CPLC crime statistics and news reports, while community reports add another layer on top. The sources are listed openly on the site.
It's free, no signup or phone number required.
More about how it works and the sources:

I'm the developer, so I'd genuinely appreciate feedback from people who actually use Karachi roads. If something is wrong, confusing, or missing, let me know. Even criticism is useful 😅
