What began as a weather consulting firm became a software and hardware company that helps more than 5,000 organizations - including schools, cities, golf courses, and pro leagues like the NFL, MLB, and PGA of America - monitor hazardous conditions, automate their safety policies, and keep compliance records. The company has raised roughly $21 million, including a $15 million Series B in 2024, and has sent more than 200 million weather alerts.
