Spectee расширил функционал оценки рисков наводнений для глобальных поставщиков

KEY POINTS Spectee expands AI-based flood-risk scoring from social-media images and video across its global monitoring coverage. High, medium and low ratings help companies assess flooding around overseas facilities and supply-chain networks in real time. Existing Spectee Pro and Spectee SCR subscribers receive the expanded function without additional fees or contracts from Sept. 8, 2026. TOKYO, Sept. 8, 2026 — Japanese resilience-technology startup Spectee Inc. has expanded globally an AI function that evaluates flood risk from social-media posts in real time, allowing users of its disaster-management and supply-chain risk platforms to assess conditions around overseas locations, the company said. The feature, called the flood-risk score, analyzes images and videos posted on social media and classifies flooding risk as high, medium or low. The ratings are displayed in different colors and are based on factors including floodwater depth and the extent to which water has entered buildings, such as above or below floor level. Spectee introduced the function on July 22, 2026. The global rollout extends its use to corporate facilities and supply-chain operations outside Japan, where companies may need to monitor disruption at overseas sites during flooding events. The function is available through Spectee Pro, the company's AI disaster-prevention and crisis-management service, and Spectee SCR, its cloud-based supply-chain risk-management platform. Existing subscribers to either service can use the flood-risk score without an additional contract or charge. Spectee Pro collects and visualizes crisis information from sources including social media, weather data, and road and river cameras. The service uses location-identification technology and checks information through AI and a specialist team operating around the clock before displaying information on a map and issuing alerts by voice, email and app. Spectee says the service displays reliable information on a map within one minute of an incident occurring. It has been adopted by many private-sector companies and public agencies, including more than 80% of Japan's prefectural governments. Spectee SCR combines risk-information analysis with technology designed to map multilayered manufacturing supply chains. It enables users to identify supplier connections, products and components handled by suppliers, and logistics routes, while detecting crises in real time. Users can then identify affected supplier locations and the products or parts exposed to disruption. Spectee, headquartered in Tokyo and led by Chief Executive Kenjiro Murakami, said the expansion responds to growing demand from companies with global supply chains and overseas operations for immediate, intuitive assessments of disaster conditions. The company cited an increase in flooding incidents in regions worldwide amid climate change.
