Weather-driven decision intelligence

Act,
or hold?We turn a probabilistic forecast into the answer — with the dollar value behind it.

Sentintell weighs the forecast against your cost of acting and loss of not acting, and returns one call you can defend — backed by the historical record, not a black box.

How it works

Four steps to a decision you can defend

You define the economic stakes. Sentintell calculates whether the forecast justifies acting.

01

Define the decision

Region, variable, threshold, forecast day — plus your cost of acting (C) and loss if you don't (L).

02

Ensemble forecast

A 31-member GEFS ensemble computes the calibrated probability your threshold is crossed.

03

Cost–loss analysis

The Murphy–Richardson framework weighs that probability against your C/L ratio for expected value.

04

A decision, with evidence

One call — ACT or DO NOT ACT — its dollar value, and the historical record that stands behind it.

Why Sentintell

The intelligence layer weather data was missing

The core

One decision, not a forecast

Not a probability or a range — a single actionable call, with the financial reasoning that produced it laid out in full. The forecast is the input; the decision is the product.

Your economics

Priced in your terms

You set the cost of acting and the loss of not acting. The threshold adapts to your business, not a generic rule.

Transparency

No black box

Every call exposes the probability, the historical reliability at that probability, and the matching past cases.

Honesty

Honest about its limits

When a forecast falls outside the historical record, the system says so — instead of dressing up a guess.

Coverage

Any region, any threshold

Define a point or draw a polygon; analyse temperature, precipitation or wind at the threshold that matters to you.

Who it's for

Built for the binary decisions that move real money

Wherever a weather event forces a yes/no choice — spend to protect, or accept the exposure — and both sides can be put in currency.

High-value agriculture

One frost can erase a season. The decision is whether to defend it.

For vineyards, orchards and other high-value perennial crops, protection is cheap and known; a lost crop is catastrophic. That asymmetry is exactly where a calibrated forecast is worth the most — and what Sentintell quantifies.

  • Frost before bud-break: deploy protection, or hold?
  • Heat stress: pre-cool or shade ahead of an extreme
  • Harvest window: act on the dry-day signal
  • Irrigation timing against forecast conditions
Scenario
Frost < −2°C, Piedmont vineyard, day 6
Decision
Deploy overnight frost protection
Protection cost (C)
$8,000
Crop exposure (L)
$95,000
Recommendation
ACT — EV +$76K
Energy & industry operations

The operational hedge you should have placed — days before the event.

This is about protecting operations, not speculating on markets. When a low-wind cold spell or demand swing is forecast, Sentintell tells a generator, utility or operator whether the signal justifies hedging exposure or pre-positioning resources — and what the call is worth.

  • Production hedging: cover a forecast shortfall, or hold
  • Grid stress: pre-position crews ahead of ice or wind
  • Cold-snap demand: secure supply before threshold
  • Asset protection: harden facilities ahead of extremes
Scenario
NW Germany wind < 5 m/s, 3+ days, day 5
Decision
Hedge forecast production shortfall
Cost of hedging (C)
€18,000
Exposure if unhedged (L)
€140,000
Recommendation
ACT — EV +€112K
Risk & insurance

Put a defensible number on weather exposure — before the loss.

Insurers and risk teams already think in cost-and-loss terms. Sentintell expresses weather risk the same way: the probability of a threshold event, its calibrated reliability, and the value of acting — for advisory, mitigation and parametric design.

  • Parametric triggers grounded in calibrated probability
  • Portfolio exposure: which assets, and when
  • Loss-mitigation advisory that reduces claims at source
  • Independent, inspectable evidence on every call
Scenario
Frost risk, insured orchard region, day 7
Decision
Trigger mitigation advisory
Mitigation cost (C)
$12,000
Avoided claims (L)
$160,000
Recommendation
ACT — EV +$128K
The science

A method with a name — and scientists behind it

  • Established decision theory. The Murphy–Richardson cost–loss framework has been used for decades to decide when a forecast justifies protective action. Sentintell automates it for your exact numbers.
  • Calibrated ensemble probabilities. Raw GEFS output is post-processed with isotonic calibration, so a stated 80% means 80% in the historical record — not a model artefact.
  • Verification you can inspect. Reliability tables, historical analogs and threshold-continuity checks ship with every result — and the engine flags when a case sits outside what history supports.

Dr. Barry Lynn

Atmospheric scientist · Technical lead

A PhD atmospheric scientist and university researcher in ensemble weather forecasting, Barry is the technical lead behind the Sentintell engine. The methodology is built on peer-reviewed forecast-verification science — the discipline that evaluates whether a forecast is genuinely skilful — applied to whether it's economically worth acting on.

Sentintell is a product of AgriMetra Ltd. (Israel).

Design partner program

We're working with a small group of design partners

Sentintell is early by design. Rather than sell a self-serve plan, we partner directly with a handful of operators — modelling decisions on their real cost and loss numbers, proving the value, then shaping pricing around what works.

  • Direct access to the decision engine and the team behind it
  • Decisions modelled on your real economics, in your region
  • The full diagnostic record behind every recommendation
  • Direct influence on what we build next

No fake metrics. No customer logos we haven't earned. Just the method, working on your numbers — and an honest account of what it can and can't do yet.

Get started

See it run on a decision that matters to you

Bring a real weather-driven decision. In a short working session we'll model it live — region, threshold, your cost and loss — and show you the call with its evidence.
