Dam-it! develops a flood intelligence platform designed for predicting and preventing flood-related damages. The system provides real-time alerts and detailed forecasts to various clients, including insurance companies, municipalities, real estate agencies, and individual homeowners. By leveraging data from satellites, river sensors, and weather forecasts, the platform delivers early warnings about potential floods, offering insights into the expected water depth at specific locations. This allows users to take preventive measures to mitigate damage to property and infrastructure.
The service operates on a subscription-based B2B model, where clients pay for access to the platform’s alerts and predictive analytics. For private users, the platform can send notifications directly to their mobile phones, indicating the probability and potential severity of a flood in their area. For B2B clients, such as insurance firms, the technology enables proactive risk management by alerting policyholders in advance and estimating potential claim costs. Municipalities and water authorities can use the system for better operational planning and emergency response coordination.
Founded in 2021 by Ben-Zion Davidi, the company is headquartered in Tel Aviv, Israel. The idea stemmed from the founder’s personal experience with a flood that damaged his parents’ home, highlighting the need for more effective early warning systems.
