x8flow
LATAM meteorological intelligence

Hyper-local weather intelligence for critical LATAM operations

x8flow fuses satellite, radar and ground-station data into a 5×5 km grid across South America — 40 years of reanalysis and sub-seasonal forecasts out to 7 months, delivered through a single enterprise API.

01/ enterprise tracks

Direct-to-market global tracks

High-margin applications where atmospheric resolution becomes trading alpha, underwriting precision and logistics advantage.

Predictive Alpha

Front-run supply shocks 7 months ahead of market consensus

Sub-seasonal signals for commodity and energy trading desks operating in soft commodities, hydro spot pricing and freight risk.

Request desk API access
  • 7-month subseasonal signals on soft commodity yields (soy, coffee, sugar) and hydro spot pricing (PLD).
  • Low-latency high-frequency API streaming directly into quantitative risk engines.
  • Exclusive data-tier licensing to preserve market-moving value.
Delivered via REST, streaming, Snowflake, S3 and private exchange gateways.
02/ the platform

One meteorological engine, four enterprise capabilities

Built for teams that make capital-intensive decisions against the atmosphere. Every number is traceable to its source model and validation set.

5×5 km grid

  • Satellite + radar + 4,800 ground stations fused per cell
  • Hourly refresh, 15-minute nowcast for storm cells
  • Elevation-aware downscaling for Andean and coastal microclimates

Scrub the atmosphere, from reanalysis to forecast

Move the time scrubber across the analysis window and the 5×5 km grid, the station series and every readout update together — same variable, same timestamp, same units.

05/ why x8flow

Global models stop where LATAM complexity begins

Amazon convection, Andean orography and coastal jets are averaged away at 25 km. We resolve them.

Three tiers, one grid — compare the measurable difference

Every tier runs on the same 5×5 km engine. What changes is horizon, coverage and the depth of provenance you can hand to an auditor.
