Physical-risk & portfolio exposure

Quantify physical-world risk before it hits the balance sheet.

Physical risk — drought, flood, wildfire, land change — increasingly moves valuations, underwriting, and supply-chain decisions. But most of that risk lives in the physical world, far from the spreadsheets where it is ultimately priced.

SatelliteX links asset locations to continuous environmental and change-detection signals, translating physical-world conditions into exposure scores and risk dashboards. Signals are available via API so risk and investment teams can fold them directly into their own models.

The challenge

Quantify how physical-world change and climate risk affect assets, supply chains, and holdings.

How the mission runs

The same core loop — observe, reason, predict, recommend — tuned to this problem.

01

Observe

Map portfolio and supply-chain asset locations to relevant imagery, change feeds, and environmental risk layers.

02

Reason

Attribute detected physical change and hazard exposure to specific assets and counterparties.

03

Predict

Score forward-looking exposure and flag concentrations of correlated physical risk.

04

Recommend

Deliver exposure scores, dashboards, and signal APIs feeding portfolio and underwriting decisions.

The outcome

Earlier visibility into physical risk driving portfolio decisions.

Illustrative use case for an early-stage company. Data sources, outputs, and outcomes describe intended capability and design targets — not guaranteed results or existing customer deployments.
