What ClimateAI does

ClimateAI (ClimateAi, Inc.) is an enterprise SaaS company that applies AI and machine learning to climate and weather data to help organizations anticipate physical climate risks and translate them into business decisions. Founded in 2017 in San Francisco by Himanshu Gupta and Max Evans (Stanford MBAs), the company has built the ClimateLens platform, which combines physics-informed dynamical downscaling, spectral adjustment, multi-model ensembling, and patented deep generative adversarial networks to produce subseasonal-to-seasonal forecasts (1–6 months) and long-term climate scenarios (10+ years) at 1km spatial resolution globally. Core products include ClimateLens Monitor (operational short-term forecasting), ClimateLens Adapt (long-term risk analytics with TCFD/CSRD compliance), ClimateLens Monitor Yield Outlook (AI-driven seasonal crop yield forecasts for 70+ crops), and the LensConnect API for embedding climate intelligence into enterprise systems.

The platform is delivered through a quote-based enterprise subscription model, sold via direct field sales with discovery/demo conversion, supplemented by an API-first self-serve channel with a 7-day free trial. ClimateAI targets enterprise buyers in agribusiness (Advanta Seeds, Driscoll's, Dole, BASF, Simplot, HM Clause), food and beverage (Suntory, Oatly, McCain, The Wonderful Company), finance (Nuveen Natural Capital, World Bank, Rabobank), and federal/defense (Department of Defense BROFEW project across 500+ installations). The company has raised $38M across seed, Series A, and Series B rounds and reports usage across 80+ countries by 50+ enterprise customers.

Core offering

ClimateAI sells the ClimateLens enterprise climate resilience platform, applying AI and proprietary models to global climate and weather data to deliver 1km-resolution forecasts from 1 week to 6 months ahead and long-term scenarios out 10+ years. Core products are ClimateLens Monitor (short-term operational forecasts), ClimateLens Adapt (long-term climate risk analytics), and ClimateLens Monitor Yield Outlook (AI-driven seasonal crop yield forecasts), with the LensConnect API providing developer/enterprise access to the underlying data streams for integration into customer workflows.

Product overview

ClimateAI offers the ClimateLens platform — a unified enterprise climate resilience platform for food and agriculture — comprising three core products: ClimateLens Monitor (short-term weather forecasting 1-6 months), ClimateLens Adapt (long-term climate scenarios 10+ years), and ClimateLens Monitor Yield Outlook (AI-driven seasonal crop yield forecasts). These are supplemented by a public LensConnect API for developer integration, and modular solutions covering Asset Diligence, Demand Planning, Production & Operations, R&D, Sourcing & Procurement, Sustainability & ESG, and Water Risk. The platform applies proprietary machine learning and AI models (including GenAI-based deep generative models) to climate and weather data to provide actionable business insights across the food and agriculture value chain.
