Our mission

When we started looking at how flood risk is communicated to the public, we kept finding the same problem: the data existed, but the resolution was wrong.

Postcodes. Flood zones. Broad categories that obscure more than they reveal. We built FLORIS to go further — individual address, five depth layers, damage and mortality risk in a single score.

Because the family deciding whether to buy a house deserves the same information the insurers already have.

How we work

01

Resolution over reassurance

Postcodes and flood zones hide the variation that matters. FLORIS scores the individual address, with five depth layers behind every result.

02

One score, fully explained

Depth, damage exposure and mortality risk resolve into a single interpretable score — not a dashboard of numbers nobody can act on.

03

Validated, not asserted

94.2% correlation against the Environment Agency gauge network, back-tested to 87–91% accuracy through Storm Babet and Storm Henk.

The team

Aithera Labs is a product of Ascendant Ventures — built to take complex problems seriously and make them accessible to the people most affected by them.

Kishia Wolfe

Founder & CEO

Kishia spent 14 years at the ASPCA building and scaling revenue operations, driving more than $17M in incremental revenue through technology, process design and cross-functional leadership.

She later served as COO at Targeted Technology Solutions and held operational roles at the International Rescue Committee. She founded Ascendant Ventures to build products that take complex problems seriously — and make them accessible to the people most affected by them.

Aithera Labs is that mission applied to flood risk: real data, at the property level, for everyone who needs it.

Hiring next: ML, backend, commercial.
