WeatherXM Community-powered DePIN weather network

WeatherXM operates a decentralized, community-built network of weather stations in which individuals and organizations purchase, install and maintain hardware, and in return receive data access and $WXM token rewards. Each observation submitted to the network is quality-scored and location-verified using Proof of Location and Quality of Data mechanisms. The company reports more than 9,500 deployed stations, with a public Network Map and Explorer that show live conditions, quality score, uptime and history for individual stations. Station owners include farmers, schools, sailing clubs and utility engineers, and the company positions the network as reaching locations and densities not covered by national meteorological services.

The commercial arm, WeatherXM Pro, exposes network data through a single REST API covering real-time observations, historical archives, hyperlocal 7-day forecasts and forecast-accuracy tracking across more than 40 global models, with documentation, per-station pricing, a free tier, volume-based scaling, no minimum commitment and self-serve signup. Additional data products include raw observation datasets, hyperlocal forecasts, forecast accuracy comparison, and a Web3 weather oracle for blockchain applications. Consumer-facing products include the Explorer web app and iOS/Android mobile apps that deliver personalized real-time updates and forecasts based on stations a user owns or follows.

Hardware offered directly through the company's shop includes the D1 (WiFi, also referenced as WB1200, bundling the WS1001 station with an open-source D1 WiFi gateway), the H2 (Helium/LoRaWAN, also referenced as WS2001) and the Pulse (4G/LTE, also referenced as WB3000, bundling the WS1001 with a Pulse 4G-LTE gateway). Stations capture seven measurements from one device — temperature, humidity, pressure, solar radiation, wind speed, wind direction and precipitation — uploaded every minute, and are solar-powered with battery backup.

Business model

WeatherXM sells weather station hardware to owners, who then contribute data to the network and earn $WXM rewards; the network's aggregated data is monetized commercially through the WeatherXM Pro API and datasets. API pricing is per station with a free tier and scaling by volume, and no minimum commitment. Commercial weather data licensing can be purchased with $WXM tokens. The company also runs affiliate, reseller and deployer programs, and a Targeted Rollouts program in which partners deploy stations in specified locations and earn $WXM rewards.

Hardware sales (stations listed at $139 for the D1 WiFi and H2 Helium models, discounted from $400, and $810 for the Pulse 4G/LTE, discounted from $900), plus subscription/usage-based access to the WeatherXM Pro REST API priced per station with a free tier and volume scaling, and data licensing paid in $WXM tokens.

Traction

More than 9,500 weather stations deployed by network participants, a stated community of over 15,000 members, 2,270 stations deployed via the SwissBorg partnership, a public network Explorer, and consumer mobile apps on the App Store and Google Play. WeatherXM Pro is offered with a free tier and early-access registration for professionals and businesses.
