Trip-risk scores, weather-volatility indices, and resort-reliability ratings — licensable to travel insurance carriers, OTAs, and resort operators on a per-pull or per-decision royalty model. The independent rating for trip weather risk.
Travel insurance carriers price weather risk informally. OTAs surface "weather: 73°F sunny" but never tell a buyer whether the destination is reliable for their activity. Resort operators have no third-party reliability rating to point at. NimboX is building the missing layer — a standardized, audited, API-accessible score that any partner business can integrate.
Returns a 0-100 risk score for a specific trip — a destination, date range, and activity. Used by travel insurance carriers to price coverage and OTAs to surface confidence ratings at booking time.

A standardized volatility index for any region and weather variable. Used by financial counterparties and energy traders to size exposure to weather-correlated risk.

A multi-year reliability rating for a specific resort or destination. Resorts can license to display on their booking pages; OTAs can use to rank destinations.
// Response sketch { "resort_id": "niseko", "reliability": "A-", // Letter grade A-D "score": 87, // Numeric 0-100 "category_strengths": ["snow_quality", "snow_consistency"], "category_weaknesses": ["warm_event_risk"], "sample_size_years": 10 }
