The Jupiter Promise: Advancing Climate Resilience for All
-min.jpg)
The Jupiter Promise
Climate change is the defining challenge of our time, disproportionately affecting under-resourced communities worldwide. At Jupiter, we believe that access to high-quality climate risk data should not be limited by financial constraints. This is the heart of our Jupiter Promise:
We commit to making our gold-standard climate risk analytics accessible at little-to-no-cost to under-resourced communities, empowering them to understand, quantify, and adapt to climate risks.
Our promise is grounded in three core principles:
Rigor
We provide best-in-science climate data, constantly evolving with the latest research and methodologies.
Intelligence
Our analytics translate complex climate science into clear, decision-ready insights.
Impact
We strive to make our climate risk data accessible and applicable to organizations of all sizes, across all sectors, around the world.
Through the Jupiter Promise, we aim to reach more than 20% of the world’s under-resourced population, serving as a catalyst for positive change and helping to create a more resilient global economy.

Climate change is not just an environmental issue—it's a profound humanitarian challenge that disproportionately affects the world's most vulnerable populations, landing the worst on those least able to adapt.
In 2024, the stark reality of climate inequality continues to deepen:
Losses
Global climate-related disasters caused over $300 billion in estimated economic losses last year, with developing countries bearing a disproportionate burden of these costs.
Cost
Thousands of lives were lost to extreme weather events, predominantly in regions least equipped to respond to such crises.
Crises
Climate impacts exacerbate existing challenges in less developed regions, straining already limited resources for healthcare, education, and infrastructure.
Capacity
The regions most vulnerable to climate change often have the least financial and technological resources to predict, mitigate, and adapt to these impacts.
Addressing this inequity requires a collaborative, people-centered approach. It demands partnerships between local experts, global organizations, and communities themselves to develop tailored, effective strategies for climate resilience.
By focusing on the human dimension of climate change, we can work towards a future where resilience and adaptation are within reach for all communities, regardless of their economic status or geographic location.
The Program: Extending World-Class Climate Analytics to Vulnerable Communities

Jupiter Intelligence — the trusted leader in climate risk analytics — is extending its mission to support vulnerable communities worldwide.Our approach combines cutting-edge science with practical applications
High-Resolution Modeling: We use advanced, science-based predictive modeling to estimate physical risks from climate-related perils including flood, extreme precipitation, heat, cold, fire, drought, wind, and hail.
Comprehensive Analysis: Our tools calculate value-at-risk for physical assets and help develop climate-smart solutions across multiple sectors.
Global Expertise: We work with some of the world's largest banks, asset managers, insurers, real estate developers, utilities, and corporations to build resilience strategies.
Under the Jupiter Promise, we offer our commercial-grade risk analytics to vulnerable communities at little to no cost:
Multi-Faceted Risk Assessment: Access to analytics across multiple perils, scenarios, and time and spatial scales.
Decision Support: Tools to inform critical adaptation and resilience planning decisions.
Customized Solutions: Tailored approaches to address specific community needs and challenges.
By democratizing access to our world-class climate risk tools, the Jupiter Promise aims to empower vulnerable communities across the globe. We're committed to helping these communities better prepare for climate change and extreme events, bridging the gap in climate resilience resources.
The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and Jupiter Intelligence are teaming up to tackle one of the most pressing challenges of our time: climate change resilience in developing nations.
The UNDP’s Insurance and Risk Finance Facility (IRFF) is leveraging Jupiter’s gold-standard climate risk data and analytics to inform critical public financial management decisions and bolster climate adaptation strategies in five developing countries.

Testimonials
Without drastic improvements in data and analytics to inform public financial-management of rising climate risks, countries will fall short of their economic and development goals,” said Jan Kellett, Global and Corporate Lead on Insurance and Risk Finance at UNDP. “This partnership between UNDP and Jupiter Intelligence is both an active step towards providing governments with urgently needed climate-risk information and a call for greater integration of climate-risks into countries’, businesses’ and farmer’s sustainability strategies.
The Jupiter Promise persists in equipping the world’s most vulnerable populations with the provision of essential climate data and analytics so they can identify ways to adapt to the evolving impacts of climate change. This project [The Nature Conservancy] holds special significance for Jupiter as we can provide with our products, tangible assistance to indigenous peoples in crucial decision-making to enhance their resiliency.
Nepal has approximately 30 million people with a majority of the population living in remote, rural communities and who rely on self-sustaining agriculture. Of the 30 million, 2 million are at risk of climate-related extreme weather events that threaten their livelihood. By partnering with Jupiter, we are empowering the people of Nepal to find new ways to adapt and build resilience.
Paired with a Jupiter expert that specializes in your industry, we will work together to assess your needs and determine the best-in-science physical climate risk analytics approach for your organization.
