What TRIS does today, from the map to your inbox
Map and evidence
Fourteen incident types
Armed attacks, clashes, highway blockades, cargo theft, protests, strikes and eight more types, located by state, municipality, neighborhood, street or highway kilometer marker.
Every incident with its sources
Summary, date, time, the news reports behind it with links, and a confidence level. Single-source incidents are labeled “unconfirmed” and stay hidden unless you ask to see them.
Time windows and search
Views from 24 hours to 12 months or a custom range, a day-by-day timeline, and search by state, municipality, highway (“Federal 57”) or any word in the reports.
Municipality profiles
One page per municipality or state with its 12-month trend, relevant incidents, official crime figures and the corridors that run through it.
Routes
Risk corridors
Highway segments of about 15 km from INEGI’s national road network. A segment is rated high with 3 or more cargo thefts, blockades or attacks in 12 months, and medium with 2. Ratings are recalculated daily.
Trip planning
Risk level by highway segment, toll and non-toll roads, incidents along the route and a note on departure time, in a PDF trip sheet for the driver or the traveling executive.
Traffic on the map
Traffic flow and closures on the highway network, layered over incidents and corridors.
Your operations
Site and route alerts
Register plants, warehouses and offices with a radius, plus your routes. Every 10 minutes TRIS checks for incidents nearby and emails you an alert for the incident types you choose.
Daily brief
An email at the time you set, with quiet hours. On the dashboard, the “My operations only” filter shows just what touches your sites and routes.
Share and export
A link to the same view, a PNG of the map, and data in CSV and GeoJSON.
Context
Official crime figures
Crime data by municipality from Mexico’s Executive Secretariat of the National Public Security System (SESNSP), daily homicide counts and heavy-equipment theft reported by AMIS, the insurers’ association. TRIS compares what it documents against SESNSP month by month.
Emergencies and weather
Hurricanes with the National Hurricane Center cone, earthquakes, and warnings and five-day forecasts from Mexico’s National Weather Service (SMN), checked against your sites and routes.
Advisor
Questions in plain language
The Advisor answers with TRIS data on routes, municipalities, official figures and weather, and exports the conversation as a PDF.
From a published news report to an alert in your inbox
What TRIS does not do today
- Alerts are sent by email; WhatsApp and Telegram are not available yet.
- Exports CSV, GeoJSON, PNG and PDF; there is no public API.
- Covers Mexico only and does not make predictions. Extortion is not one of its incident types.
- The SESNSP comparison uses months collected live; the rebuilt history has thinner coverage.
- Sign-in is by username and password; Microsoft and Google accounts are not supported yet.
Frequently asked questions
Where do the incidents come from, and how do I know one is confirmed?
From national and local news outlets, Google News, official accounts on X and government sources. Each incident links to its reports and carries a confidence level; single-source incidents are labeled “unconfirmed” and stay hidden unless you ask to see them.
How quickly will I hear about something?
TRIS checks official accounts on X every 15 minutes, news feeds every 30 and Google News and local outlets every hour. Alerts for your sites and routes are evaluated every 10 minutes and sent by email.
Is a corridor’s risk level a forecast?
No. It comes from cargo thefts, blockades and attacks that already happened and were reported in open sources over the last 12 months. A Riskop analyst can adjust a segment’s level based on field information.
Can I monitor my plants and routes without other clients seeing them?
Yes. Your sites and routes are shown only to your company’s users and to the Riskop team that runs the platform. Separation is enforced in the application, and we can walk your IT team through it during the demo. Incidents come from public sources and are the same for every client.
How does my team use it?
In a web browser on desktop or phone, in English or Spanish. Each person signs in with a username and password, with optional two-factor authentication through an authenticator app.
Does it connect to our systems?
Today it exports CSV, GeoJSON, PNG images and a link to the current view, and reports come out as PDF. There is no public API and no integration with mass notification tools.
Security assessments, incident protocols and training for your team are part of our consulting work.
