Simple Integration, Serious Data

From NWS raw grid data to a clean 1–10 score in your product — the pipeline runs automatically every day.

NWS Grid Data

We process National Weather Service forecast data at 2.5km grid resolution covering the entire contiguous U.S., then apply activity-specific scoring models to convert raw meteorological variables into actionable playability scores.

Activity-Specific Scoring

Each variable — temperature, wind, dewpoint, cloud cover, rain probability, precipitation — is classified and weighted specifically for each activity's unique conditions.

Daily JSON Generation

A 7-day rolling forecast JSON file is generated every morning covering 37,000+ U.S. cities. Each record includes the composite score plus all underlying variables.

Secure API Delivery

Your platform accesses the data via authenticated API endpoint. Each client receives a unique API key with rate limiting and access control built in.

What Your Developers Get
