About
Kayrros is a Paris-based geospatial AI company that harnesses advances in Earth observation, satellite imaging, and artificial intelligence to deliver independent environmental and energy intelligence at a global scale. The platform offers two core product lines: Risk and Energy. The Risk suite helps organizations navigate climate-driven physical risks and regulatory challenges. Products include the Wildfire Risk Monitor, Methane Watch, Imported Deforestation Tracker, Vegetation Monitoring, and Forest Carbon Monitor—used by investors, insurers, firefighters, operators, and regulators to assess exposure and meet compliance requirements. The Energy suite enables traders, asset managers, and operators to identify investment opportunities and manage volatility arising from the energy transition, geopolitics, and the AI revolution. Products span LNG Intelligence, Crude Oil Intelligence, Solar and Battery Storage Construction Monitors, Carbon Watch, Industrial Energy Demand tracking, and more. Kayrros also offers an Innovation Studio for tailored analytics and custom model development, helping enterprises move from prototype to production rapidly. Its data is sourced independently from satellite and Earth observation assets—not self-reported—making it uniquely objective. Kayrros is used across trading operations, government agencies, risk management teams, and large corporations globally.
