"How many days' worth do we have left?"
Kurataro is a disaster preparedness management app that visualizes your stockpiles in terms of "days." Simply enter your family size, and it automatically calculates the amount of supplies your household needs. It manages the stock and expiration dates of emergency food and water all in one place, allowing you to gradually increase your supplies like a savings plan.
■ Diagnosis takes 1 minute. Find out the necessary amount instantly.
By simply selecting the number of adults, children, and elderly people, and your type of residence, it automatically calculates the necessary quantities of 65 items, including water, food, portable toilets, and hygiene products. The calculation is based on open data from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's "Tokyo Stockpiling Navi." For households with dogs or cats, pet supplies can also be calculated.
■ Visualize your supplies in terms of "how many days' worth."
Instead of a percentage of sufficiency, it displays the amount in days, such as "currently 4.2 days' worth." You can freely set your goal from 3 days to 30 days, and it supports goals such as "1 week's worth in preparation for the Nankai Trough earthquake." For those who want to know what and how much to stock up on, you can first understand your current situation.
■ Continue Rolling Stock Management with Expiry Date Management
By registering the expiration dates of emergency food, preserved food, and water, you will receive notifications when the expiration date approaches (default 30 days/14 days, the number of days can be changed in the settings). Eat, replenish, and always maintain a fresh stockpile. It will become a daily tool for those who want to continue rolling stock.
■ Identify "Weaknesses" by Category
Displays the number of days needed for each category: water, food, toilet, hygiene, heat source, lighting, and medicine. You can see at a glance imbalances in disaster preparedness goods, such as portable toilets and preparations for power outages and water shortages, which are often put off.
■ Share with Family (Free for up to 2 people)
Simply send an invitation code, and you and your spouse can view the same stockpile. If one person buys something, it will be immediately reflected on the other person's screen. Eliminate the "I thought I bought it, but I didn't" problem. Families of 3 or more can continue to share with Kurataro Plus.
■ Our Family Disaster Preparedness Card (Free)
This card allows you to decide in advance where to meet, how to contact others, and who will pick you up—things that can't be decided on the day of the disaster. It also includes instructions on how to use the disaster message dial (171) and the location of nearby public telephones. You can open and print it even without a signal and give it to your family (no limit on the number of people).
■ Don't Aim for Perfection
Have you ever given up on stockpiling because you were overwhelmed by the sheer volume of recommended items? You don't need to get everything at once. Kurataro supports "a little bit each month" of disaster preparedness. Why not start with just three days' worth?
■ Easy to Use
- No registration required; use immediately (no email address needed)
- Works offline. You can check your inventory even during a disaster.
- Supports account linking (email/Google) for device changes
