The climate resilience platform provides actionable weather, climate, and water insights using machine learning and data inputs from various sources. This helps companies and governments minimize near- and long-term climate risk exposure. Its risk intelligence capabilities empower clients to go beyond single-goal initiatives by supporting comprehensive decision-making to enable more effective climate adaptation responses.
As the global market size for both artificial intelligence and climate solutions expands, ClimateAi’s rapid growth has ensured it maintains its place as a major player in the market, with a customer portfolio that includes Dole, Driscoll’s, Ocean Spray, and Nuveen Natural Capital. Its highly scalable solution has enabled the company to be applicable across a wide range of industries and verticals.
The company is focused on team expansion and further development of its AI technologies as it expands into new territories that are at the highest risk of damage due to climate change, including India, Japan, and low-income countries within the Global South.
