WindBorne is solving weather uncertainty by fusing unparalleled weather data from our constellation of smart, long-duration sensing balloons with state-of-the-art AI.
Record-breaking AI forecasts
WindBorne’s deep learning forecast model, WeatherMesh, creates the most accurate global medium-range weather forecasts in the world. WeatherMesh’s AI underpinnings allow it to process both vast training data and live inputs at scale. It’s purpose-built for powering real-time operations, including our own constellation.
Novel atmospheric data at a fraction of the cost
Up to 150x more data per dollar
Rapid global access via international launch sites
Targets crucial data, not otherwise captured
Complete access, from surface to stratosphere
WindBorne designs, builds, and operates the only technology that can capture in-situ atmospheric profiles everywhere, including over oceans and the Earth’s most remote places. Each balloon can maintain or transition between any altitude from sea level to 20 km, autonomously flying for weeks at a time.
