About
Ignitia is a deep-tech weather intelligence company founded in 2009, originally in Stockholm, Sweden, that uses physics-informed AI, proprietary reforecast data, and virtual radar technology to deliver hyperlocal rainfall and storm forecasts in tropical regions with 93% accuracy. The company serves over 3 million users across 15+ countries and 30+ years of historical reforecast data, providing multi-channel delivery via APIs, dashboards, WhatsApp, and SMS to smallholder farmers, governments, ports, and insurance and finance institutions managing climate risk. Ignitia's solutions address the critical gap in weather forecasting infrastructure in the Global South, where 50% of the population lacks effective early-warning systems, and the company's forecasts have demonstrably improved crop yields for 9 in 10 farmers who rely on them.
