Backup Checklist

Data loss is a matter of when, not if. The 3-2-1 rule — three copies, two media, one offsite — implemented as a checklist, verified by actual restores.

How it works

Start your blank list

One click creates your own private, editable copy. It opens instantly — no signup, no download.

Add your items

Type them in, paste a whole list at once, or add as you go. Check things off with a satisfying tap.

Share the link

Send the edit link to collaborate or the view-only link to share. Changes sync live on every device.

Make it work for you

Automate everything

Manual backups don’t happen. If it isn’t automatic, it isn’t a backup strategy.

Test restores yearly

A backup you’ve never restored is theoretical. Restore one file a year to prove it works.

Encrypt the offsite copy

Cloud backups should be encrypted. Your tax returns don’t belong in plaintext on someone’s server.

Frequently asked questions

What does 3-2-1 backup mean?

Three copies of important data, on two different media types, with one copy offsite. It survives device failure, theft, and most disasters.

How do I share my list with someone?

Copy the share link and send it to them. Anyone with the link opens the list directly — no account or app needed. You can also create a view-only link that lets people see the list without changing it.

Will my list show up in search engines?

Never. Lists are excluded from search engines and sitemaps by design, and each one lives at an unguessable link that only you share.
