Tomorrow.io’s 2021 Year in Review

Tomorrow.io had an eventful 2021 full of major weather intelligence innovation. See what's next for 2022.

The past 12 months have been a whirlwind here at Tomorrow.io, but let’s start with what happened in the world. In addition to another year of the pandemic, we saw what felt like weekly $100 billion global disasters including the Texas freeze, the Suez Canal closure, wildfires, floods, tornadoes, air pollution, and more.  

 But this is not a note of doom and gloom – rather of hope and encouragement.

Weather and climate security has rapidly become the new cyber security as we enter 2022. Every person, government and business on earth is understanding the critical need to have systems in place for mitigation and adaptation against the daily impact of weather – and this is exactly what we are solving here at Tomorrow.io as the world’s only weather and climate security platform. 

Thank you to our incredible team members, customers and partners for helping drive our relentless focus on innovation.  We are just getting started.
