Citation Wx was built in the wake of Hurricane Ian. In the earliest hours after landfall, the founders repurposed their drone services marketplace into something the moment demanded: a free tool that let homeowners view their own properties from above — when it wasn't yet safe to climb a ladder or even return home.
That work taught us something that shaped everything since: in the property claims world, the questions that matter most are often meteorological ones. What actually happened at this address, on this date? How strong were the winds? Was there hail — and how large?
Getting those answers has traditionally meant slow, expensive, manual analysis. Citation Wx was built to change that — source-cited reports in minutes, not the days-long standard.
When rigorous meteorological data is the shared starting point, better outcomes follow for all parties.
Greater transparency helps homeowners understand what happened at their property and make informed decisions.
It helps insurance carriers evaluate claims with clearer evidence, grounded in accurate, verifiable data.
Making verifiable weather data widely available can help reduce fraudulent claims — a cost ultimately borne by everyone through higher premiums.
