Our data: We’ve assembled leading climate scientists and economists to develop transparent, peer-reviewed methodologies to calculate the past, present, and future climate risk for properties and asset classes spanning real estate, infrastructure, and companies. Using physics-based deterministic models, we predict the likelihood of floods, wildfires, hurricanes, and other hazards at any location on Earth, along with associated damage and downtime.
Our customers: We aim to incorporate climate risk data into every financial decision made today. We are relied on every day by:
Institutional investors like Norges Bank Investment Management and Blackstone.
Banking enterprises, including Bank of America and Fifth Third.
Government bodies ranging from Fannie Mae to the US State of Connecticut.
Millions of everyday users on Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com, Homes.com, and more.
