Why I Built Deadnet
I'm Hayley. I built Deadnet in 2026 when things started feeling uncertain.
As a single mom, I kept thinking — if the power goes out for a week, if the internet goes down, if cell service drops — what do I actually know about keeping my family safe?
The answer was: not enough.
So I started pulling together every resource I could find. Military survival manuals. FEMA emergency guides. VA medical field references. Government documents on water purification, food safety, emergency shelter, first aid — things that could actually keep people alive.
Then I put an AI on a USB drive that could search all of it instantly, with no internet needed. I built it for my family first. Now I'm making it available for yours.
What Deadnet is — and isn't
Built in the United States — designed, developed, and shipped from the US. No overseas manufacturing, no foreign servers, no third parties.
Zero data collection — Deadnet never connects to the internet. It physically cannot send your data anywhere. Your questions stay on your computer and disappear when you close the app.
Nothing installed on your computer — the app runs directly from the USB drive. Pull it out and it's like it was never there. No files left behind, no software installed, no traces.
No account, no login, no tracking — there is no sign-up, no email required, no analytics, no cookies. You plug it in and use it. That's it.
30-day money-back guarantee — if it doesn't work on your computer or you're not satisfied for any reason, you get a full refund.
“Is this safe to plug into my computer?”
I get asked this a lot, and it's a fair question. Here's the simple answer:
Deadnet is a USB drive with an app and a bunch of survival documents on it. When you plug it in, nothing happens automatically — you choose to open the app yourself. The app runs on your computer the same way a Word document or a photo runs on your computer. It doesn't install anything. It doesn't change any settings. It doesn't connect to the internet.
When you're done, you pull out the USB drive. Your computer is exactly the same as before. Nothing was added, changed, or left behind.
I built this for my own family. I would never ship something I wouldn't trust on my own computer.
