Data Foundation
Feature
Floodlight
ClimateAi

Satellite-verified emissions data

Emissions figures derived from independent atmospheric satellite observations, not reported disclosures or emissions factors.

Asset-level monitoring

Emissions and risk scores tied to individual facilities, buildings, or assets - not rolled-up sector or company averages.

ClimateAi tracks field/farm-level exposure rather than industrial or financial assets.

Independent third-party verification

Data produced without reliance on issuer self-disclosure; independently reproducible and auditable by third parties.

Continuous / near-real-time monitoring

Emissions tracked on an ongoing basis with alerts for anomalies; not a once-a-year snapshot.

ClimateAi provides short-term weather monitoring and forecasting for operational decisions.

Global asset coverage (190+ countries)

Coverage of industrial and commercial assets worldwide, not limited to North America or Western Europe.

GHG Emissions
Feature
Floodlight
ClimateAi

Scope 1 direct emissions

Direct emissions from owned or controlled sources including combustion, process emissions, and fugitive releases.

Scope 3 / PCAF financed emissions

Financed emissions across lending and investment portfolios aligned with PCAF data quality scores 1-3.

Climate Risk
Feature
Floodlight
ClimateAi

Physical climate risk assessment

Asset-level exposure scores for flood, heat stress, wildfire, sea-level rise, water stress, hurricane, and other perils.

Strong on acute/chronic agricultural weather risk; not framed as asset-level financial exposure.

Transition risk assessment

Exposure to regulatory carbon costs, stranded-asset risk, and technology disruption under decarbonisation scenarios.

Climate Value-at-Risk (Climate VaR)

Probabilistic financial loss estimate under named climate scenarios, in the same units as market and credit VaR.

Regulatory Compliance
Feature
Floodlight
ClimateAi

CSRD / ESRS E1 compliance

Data mapped to CSRD ESRS E1 data-point IDs including E1-5, E1-6, and E1-9 financial-effects table.

Auditability
Feature
Floodlight
ClimateAi

Full audit trail and data provenance

Every figure traceable to satellite overpass, model version, and confidence band - reproducible by external reviewers.

REST API access

Programmatic access to all data via documented REST API with pre-trade and portfolio query modes.

Honest verdict

Where Floodlight wins

ClimateAi is purpose-built for crop and supply-chain weather risk and does not measure emissions or produce a financial Climate VaR figure - its outputs are agronomic (yield impact, procurement timing), not portfolio-level risk metrics. Floodlight provides satellite-verified emissions alongside asset-level Climate VaR for physical and transition risk, which is what investors, banks, and corporates need for regulatory disclosure and portfolio risk management rather than crop planning.

Where ClimateAi wins

ClimateAi has deep, sector-specific expertise combining AI-driven weather forecasting with phenological data to deliver highly localized, crop-specific risk insights across short, medium, and long time horizons. For agribusiness, food and beverage procurement, and grower risk management, ClimateAi's specialization in agricultural climate-economic modelling is a genuine and differentiated strength that a generalist asset-risk platform does not replicate.
