Risky Business

Risks under control.

Risky Business helps you capture, assess and track risks in your projects – clear, professional and entirely local on your device.

For macOS, iPadOS and iPhone · English, German, Español

Everything for structured risk management

From capture to management report – in a single app.

Capture & assess

Record risks with category, probability and impact – also from ready-made templates. Score and priority are calculated automatically. Quick actions (change status, duplicate, bulk-edit several at once) and keyboard shortcuts speed up work in the register.

Risk matrix

All risks in a 5×5 grid by probability and impact – including a “Current → Target” view for intended residual risk.

Portfolio

A cross-project dashboard with key figures, a priority heatmap and the risk budget per project at a glance – exportable as a Portfolio report (PDF/PowerPoint) with charts.

Risk budget

A calibratable mapping of probability and impact to monetary values – expected value per risk and a total budget.

Timeline & audit

Every change is logged. Time-series dashboard, risk movements and audit-log export as Excel, CSV or PDF. Deleted risks can be restored from the trash.

Review cycle & reminders

A review cycle per risk with a “Next review” date and a dashboard card for due reviews – plus reminders for due dates and upcoming reviews.

User management & encryption

Built-in user management with multiple accounts, admin roles and per-project permissions. The shared database can optionally be encrypted with a passphrase (AES-GCM).

Reports & export

Management report as PDF or PowerPoint with selectable sections and company branding (logo, name, footer). Register export with selectable columns, plus Excel (.xlsx) import/export.

Collaborate via iCloud Beta

Optionally sync a database via iCloud and, with a share link, collaborate with several iCloud users. Each database gets its own named iCloud area (nothing mixes); existing cloud databases can be reconnected or deleted. Switchable per database; the local-file mode stays unchanged.

Accessible

Comprehensive support for VoiceOver (including an audio graph of the charts), Dynamic Type, “Differentiate Without Color” and improved contrast.

For Mac, iPad & iPhone

A native app on Mac, iPad and iPhone – the same database and familiar controls everywhere, optionally kept in sync across your devices via iCloud.

Widgets, Siri & Shortcuts

Home-screen and Lock Screen widget, Control Center, plus Siri & Shortcuts for quick actions like “new risk” or “open portfolio”.
