MIAMI, Feb. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Neural Earth today announced it has closed a $9.3 million Seed round to scale its AI-powered geospatial risk intelligence platform for property and casualty insurance and real estate. The round was 3× oversubscribed, reflecting strong investor conviction in Neural Earth’s ability to help carriers and investors quantify climate-driven risk, optimize workflows, and accelerate business-critical decisions. This close enables the company to begin Series A discussions while scaling hiring and customer expansion.
The financing positions Neural Earth to scale its enterprise platform as property and casualty insurers, reinsurers, and institutional real estate firms confront escalating climate complexity that has outpaced legacy risk assessment tools. By unifying fragmented planetary data through advanced AI and proprietary analytics, Neural Earth enables organizations to assess risk, validate exposures, and improve financial modeling with unprecedented speed and precision.
Strategic investors include executives from insurance carriers, real estate investment firms, and technology companies, reflecting strong industry validation of Neural Earth’s approach to real-time, AI-driven risk intelligence.
What the funding enables:
- Go-to-market expansion: onboarding additional carriers/reinsurers and institutional real estate firms; scaling channel and data partner motion.
- Product acceleration: deeper models that fuse geospatial imagery with proprietary analytics for higher fidelity, property-level risk signals (flood, wind, wildfire) and automated diligence workflows.
- Operational scale: priority hires across data science, applied research, and enterprise customer success to support aggressive growth.
“This milestone reflects investor confidence in our vision and validates market urgency for solutions that match the pace of environmental change,” said Blair Austin Childs, Co-founder and CEO of Neural Earth. “We’re building critical infrastructure for an industry where traditional risk models are breaking down. The overwhelming demand signals that sophisticated investors recognize both the scale of this problem and Neural Earth’s differentiated approach to solving it.”
Platform Capabilities
- Orchestration of business data, satellite imagery, environmental sensors, and proprietary datasets
- Natural language translation of complex geospatial queries into simple analysis
- AI-driven risk scoring for climate, wildfire, flood, and other perils
- Portfolio-level exposure analysis for institutional investors and carriers
