About ClimateAi
ClimateAi is on a mission to climate-proof the economy while aiming for zero loss of lives, livelihoods and nature. We use AI to predict the risk of climate change, water and biodiversity. We then generate actionable insights that help stakeholders build strategies for their operations, supply chain planning, and regulatory disclosures.
We are a fast-growing Series-B company with its roots in the dorms of Stanford University. The platform was in TIME's Best Inventions list for 2022. We're seeking an innovative, passionate, team-oriented Federal Account Executive to join our growing team.
ClimateAi has launched the first of its kind, Resilience-as-a-Service platform to provide companies, farmers, and others with long-term insights into weather and climate change-related impacts and accelerate resilience in food, water, and energy supply chains. With its AI-based solutions, businesses can make operational decisions that adapt to near-term weather changes and long-term climate shifts.
ClimateAi, the world’s 1st Enterprise Climate Planning platform, was co-founded in 2015 by Himanshu Gupta, a former climate and energy expert from the office of Al Gore, along with Max Evans, a machine learning expert with an Ecuadorian pineapple farming lineage. ClimateAi makes food systems and supply chain more resilient by bringing climate forecasting and agronomics into the age of machine learning. The platform was in TIME's Best Inventions list for 2022.
