Our Story
When Superstorm Sandy wreaked devastation along the eastern seaboard in 2012, what became a crisis for millions of people also highlighted a huge gap in data collection and analysis. Our founders saw the potential of turning real-time data streams (like social media posts featuring photos and videos) into operational intelligence to enhance every critical level of communication—from governmental awareness and emergency response to personal safety and community connectivity.
From this idea, The DataCapable Platform was created by combining AI-detected public data with human-in-the-loop verification to capture, automate, and effectively report detailed intelligence rapidly and accurately.
Today, our partners utilize the DataCapable Platform to:
- Manage outage and disaster response efforts during storms like Hurricanes Ida and Harvey.
- Monitor real-time conditions and deploy crews fighting wildfires throughout the nation.
- Keep stakeholders informed on the impact of critical facilities throughout active shooter events and other safety threats.
