SkyX, an AI-Centric Intelligent Weather Network, Raises $1M Pre-seed


SkyX

November 8, 2024


SkyX, a decentralized weather data platform, has completed its pre-seed funding round, as it aims to modernize weather monitoring through blockchain and AI technologies. Led by EV3, EOT Ventures, and Waterdrip Capital, the funding will support SkyX’s goal to reshape weather forecasting by combining Web3 technology with artificial intelligence, delivering precise, hyperlocal data and AI-driven insights to a range of industries.


SkyX operates on a decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) model, enabling community-based weather data collection through portable, user-owned stations. By allowing individuals to contribute data and receive cryptocurrency rewards, SkyX offers a crowd-sourced alternative to centralized weather systems. This approach broadens data accessibility and aims to boost forecasting accuracy, particularly in remote or underserved areas where reliable meteorological data is scarce.


With the newly secured funding, SkyX plans to expand its hardware offerings and enhance its AI software platform, which turns collected data into actionable insights for sectors like agriculture, energy, disaster preparedness, and smart cities. The company will accelerate the rollout of portable weather stations and develop advanced AI capabilities, including SkyXGPT, an AI-driven conversational bot designed to make complex weather data accessible to general users. SkyX also intends to launch new products, such as a portable meteorograph and a commercial-grade station equipped with a fisheye camera, aimed at providing hyperlocal, real-time data for both individual contributors and enterprises.
