Designed with practices trusted across international development, humanitarian response and the charity sector.
How it works
From plan to living register in three moves.
Feed it your plan
Drop in your proposal, workplan or strategy — or answer a short guided questionnaire instead. LLanttern extracts your objectives, context, partners and funding picture.
Get a contextualised register
8–15 risks written properly — cause, event, consequence — scored on a 5×5 matrix, matched to your risk appetite, with suggested mitigations ready to assign.
Keep it alive
Reviews on cadence, action tracking, escalation flags, trend arrows and one-click board reports. A register that breathes, not a spreadsheet that sleeps.

The framework
Powered by the LANTERN Cycle.
Seven stages — Locate, Anticipate, Number, Treat, Escalate, Review, Nurture — take you from a blank page to a register your board can trust, and keep it honest over time.
Under the hood it's expert-grade: risks written as cause, event and consequence, scored against your stated appetite, treated with the Five Ts — tolerate, treat, transfer, terminate, take the opportunity.
On the surface, none of the jargon burden. LLanttern asks plain questions and teaches as you go.
An original methodology built for mission-driven organisations.
Features

Severity Override
Harm-to-people risks are never averaged away — they stay escalated.
Action tracker

About
Why we built this
Mission-driven organisations take real risks — that's the job. But most are managing them in dusty spreadsheets built for compliance theatre, not decisions. Registers written once for a donor and never opened again. LLanttern exists so that any project lead — no risk training required — can produce and maintain the kind of risk management that protects people, funding and mission, and satisfies the toughest board or donor. We believe risk management should illuminate the path, not paper the walls.
