Overview
Ocean Ledger is a geospatial risk analytics platform for coastal flood risk assessment, serving insurers, reinsurers, real estate firms, and government entities with property exposure to coastal hazards. The company was founded in 2023 as a spinout from the German Aerospace Centre (DLR), where eight years of research in satellite remote sensing and coastal monitoring formed the technical foundation.
The platform combines satellite imagery analysis, machine learning algorithms, and historical environmental data to produce precision coastal flood risk assessments. Delivered via a cloud-native dashboard and API integrations, the system provides historical coastal data, real-time risk views, and future climate scenario modeling. Data inputs include satellite imagery from Planet Labs and the European Space Agency, government environmental datasets, and decades of ground-truth observational records.
Ocean Ledger raised EUR 900K in pre-seed funding in March 2025, led by Ananda Impact Ventures and Silverstrand Capital. The company is a Lloyd's Lab accelerator participant and has established an early customer base spanning insurance, real estate, hospitality, and catastrophe risk modeling. Notable customers include CBRE, Marsh, Iberostar, Bedrock, and KatRisk.
