Incomplete climate risk assessments

Portfolio concentration risk is invisible when traditional systems can’t process spatial correlations across millions of properties and multiple perils simultaneously

Wherobots solution

Comprehensive risk modeling

Process petabytes of satellite imagery, climate data, and asset locations to generate granular, asset-level climate risk scores for wildfires, floods, and other hazards across entire portfolios

Industry Problem

Limited alternative data insights

Hedge funds and investment firms cannot efficiently process massive satellite imagery, shipping data, and foot traffic datasets to generate alpha-generating signals, missing opportunities to predict earnings before public disclosure

Wherobots solution

Scalable alpha generation

Analyze petabytes of satellite imagery and geospatial alternative data extracting investment signals at planetary scale. E.g. retail parking lot traffic, agricultural crop health, or oil storage tank levels

Slow assessments
Industry Problem

Slow assessments

Post-catastrophe response is too slow, taking days to assess exposure across affected areas while policyholders wait and losses mount

Wherobots solution

Rapid asset intelligence

Accelerate catastrophe response to hours with distributed processing that analyzes millions of affected properties against event footprints in near real-time.

Fragmented portfolio intelligence
Industry Problem

Fragmented portfolio intelligence

Investment managers lack the ability to spatially analyze how thousands of holdings are exposed to location-based risks such as natural disasters or socioeconomic factors. Limiting their ability to reduce risk in portfolios.

Wherobots solution

Unified spatial analytics

Integrate diverse geospatial datasets with portfolio holdings data to visualize and quantify location-based exposures, enabling data-driven rebalancing decisions and scenario analysis at scale.

Thousands
Of holdings analyzed
Inadequate retail location optimization
Industry Problem

Inadequate branch optimization

Retail banks cannot efficiently analyze demographic shifts, competitor locations, and customer mobility patterns across thousands of locations, resulting in suboptimal retail location placement and resource allocation.

Wherobots solution

Strategic location intelligence

Process massive demographic, foot traffic, and transaction datasets to optimize branch networks, identify underserved markets, and forecast performance based on location-specific factors.

Millions
Of locations analyzed

“Getting data, algorithms, and compute in one place with Spark/Sedona notebooks is a huge boost. Powerful like Earth Engine, but with the control developers need to get jobs done.”

FAQ

How to financial data teams use Wherobots?

Wherobots allows financial institutions and insurance teams to run large spatial joins and raster math against portfolios without legacy GIS bottlenecks. Insurers and portfolio managers often use the platform to price at the address level, determine CAT risk and impact, validate claims, and monitor accumulations.

We already use H3 to analyze risk concentration. How would Wherobots extend that capability?

Keep H3 for some indexing and risk score aggregations. Use Wherobots to join scores with hgher fidelity data including parcels, imagery, and events; to compute custom factors; and to run portfolio-wide queries and raster sampling that H3 alone cannot cover.

What data types does Wherobots support?

Any spatial or tabular data. E.g. Policy and claims tables, parcels and buildings, hazard data captured in rasters, point inventories, satellite and aerial imagery, DEMs, climate grids, weather event footprints, and third-party model scores. With Wherobots, tabular, vector, and raster data can live in one engine.

What deployment options does Wherobots support?

Subscribe easily to a managed, serverless cloud offering by Wherobots, or deploy in your own cloud or VPC.

How does Wherobots compare to traditional GIS systems and geospatial tools?

Wherobots enables previously impossible scale and speed for spatial joins, raster operations, and spatial AI. Built on Apache Sedona, it handles billions of rows and terabytes of rasters and vector data with SQL and Python, then feeds outputs to your downstream systems. Traditional desktop GIS and single-node libraries don’t come close to this scale.
