    HomeIQ — Property Intelligence API

    Residential property intelligence at portfolio scale.

    One API turns an address into a standardized property profile and a property-level view of physical climate risk — for banks, insurers, municipalities and governments.

    Turn Risks into Opportunities

    A property intelligence API with key insights on every home.

    Retrieve property intelligence including energy, carbon, fire, wind and flood risk, upgrade potential, energy savings, loan valuation estimates and retrofit opportunities through a single REST API. Built for Canada. Expanding across North America.

    Two intelligence engines

    The home, the risk around it, and what can be done about it.

    Lightspark API

    Tells you about the home.

    Building characteristics, energy and carbon performance, operating costs and retrofit economics.

    HorizonIQ

    Tells you about the risk.

    Property-level wildfire, flood and wind hazard, probability, future climate scenarios and financial impact.

    HomeIQ

    Connects the two.

    Move beyond identifying risk to identifying the opportunities that reduce it.

    Lightspark API — Housing Intelligence

    Understand the home.

    An address becomes a standardized residential profile: building characteristics, energy and carbon performance, HVAC and envelope, energy costs, retrofit opportunity, retrofit economics and property valuation.

    HorizonIQ — Climate Resilience Intelligence

    Understand the risk.

    Property-level physical climate intelligence for financial institutions, insurers and governments, across five primary hazards.

    CategoryExample parameters
    RiskAnnual hazard probability · Risk score · Hazard intensity
    ProbabilityAnnual Exceedance Probability · 10-, 30-, 50- and 100-year return periods · Confidence intervals
    Future climateClimate scenario projections · Multiple SSP pathways · Projections through 2100
    Financial riskExpected financial impact · Value at Risk · Tail-risk loss

    And more. Additional hazard distributions, scenario outputs, geospatial layers, compound-risk metrics and model-validation parameters are available through the API.

    Together

    One property. A complete intelligence layer.

    HomeIQ connects intelligence about the physical home with intelligence about the climate hazards acting upon it — so organizations can move beyond identifying risk and begin identifying opportunities to reduce it.
