Regional alerts are not actionable enough
A broad severe weather alert may alert you of approaching severe weather, but it won't tell you exactly where and when the impacts will occur.
Earlier severe weather warnings for businesses that need time to act.
The Problem
Severe weather information arrives too late to act and isn't specific to your exact location
Businesses face real costs when taking action to protect themselves from severe weather. Existing solutions fail to provide adequate lead time, while having a high false alarm rate.
Late warnings cost you money
By the time most weather alerts come in, it's already too late. By taking early action space can be made, vehicles moved indoors or offsite, thus preventing hail damage.
Small gains in lead time matter
When single-event damages can cost millions of dollars, every second of lead time matters. Saving even a dozen vehicles from hail damage can amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars in savings.
ConvectAlert's Solution
ConvectAlert is built to give businesses earlier, more location-relevant awareness of hailstorm risk.
Our goal is not to overwhelm customers with weather terminology. We translate our professional weather knowledge into actionable weather insights, understandable to those without a background in meteorology.
ConvectAlert continuously monitors severe weather potential with business exposure in mind. Unlike traditional public weather messaging, our alerts specifically predict when hailstorms with the potential for damage to businesses are possible.
Behind the scenes, our analysis goes much deeper than the weather alerts you're used to. Our hailstorm prediction algorithm pulls off a variety of different data sources in real-time, allowing it to be much better informed than an individual person. This allows for higher quality modeling which directly translates to more accurate and timely weather alerts relevant to your operations.

Who It Helps
Businesses that face large preventable losses caused by hailstorms
Our weather alerts are especially relevant when a business has a large inventory of exposed mobile assets, such as vehicles, aircraft and equipment.
Car Dealerships
Earlier warnings give staff the time to cover vehicles, move them indoors, or offsite where they're more protected. Getting alerts sooner also dramatically increases the likelihood of protecting vehicles prior to closing for the day.
Aviation
Aircraft owners and operators face massive costs associated with hail damage that extend well beyond damages to aircraft. Moving aircraft into hangars or temporarily offsite prior to hailstorms is a key cost-saving action dependent on prior warning.
Construction and field work
Weather-sensitive activities like concrete pours or painting can be better timed around when thunderstorms are expected to occur.
Outdoor venues and events
Severe weather protocols can be activated sooner and with greater certainty. Earlier warning also means last-minute changes are less disruptive to operations.
