About us
OUR ORIGIN
Weather for Business Since 1996
Foreca was founded by a team of weather enthusiasts who realized that national weather institutes were built for public safety, not for high-speed demands of the commercial and digital world. We don’t just deliver weather data; we provide the tools and support you need to build world-class digital services.
Today, for more than 30 years, we’ve remained an independent, specialist team dedicated to one mission: turning scientific precision into business success. Over the years, our mission has evolved into a value proposition for our customers.

VALUE PROPOSITION
Why Developers and Media Professionals Choose Foreca
When weather matters, Foreca delivers trusted forecasts, seamless integration, and expert support.
1. Verified Global Accuracy (TOP3)
Technical accuracy is the foundation of trust. We consistently rank among the top three most accurate global forecasters, but in addition we also run our own consumer apps. This "dual role" means we understand that a weather forecast is only good when your end-users also understand it intuitively.
2. We Make Things Easy
Global weather data is fragmented, locked in varying formats, and hidden behind national borders. We undertake the heavy lifting in sourcing, cleaning, and harmonizing data from dozens of sources into a single, uniform datastream. It’s premium, clean data ready to drop into your product.
3. Best-in-Market Customer Support
We don’t just hand over an API key and disappear. Whether you are a software developer integrating a datafeed or a media product manager planning a new online weather feature, you get direct access to experts who care about your ROI and uptime.
4. Built for Speed
Our focus is on a superior Developer Experience: Our self-service web platform is designed to make the data acquisition process as frictionless as the integration. Developers can access comprehensive and easy-to-read documentation, start with free trials in less than a minute, and scale their usage through a transparent self-service channel.
OUR VISION
From Weather Data to Everyday Experiences
We believe the future of weather isn't just about showing more and more data and numbers, it’s about providing insights and understanding the context.
To realise this we are helping our partners build experiences that are:
-
Intelligent: Moving from "70% probability of precipitation" to "a reminder to take your umbrella with you".
-
Frictionless: Modernizing the developers' experience of how weather data is bought, integrated, and used across the globe.
-
Emotional: Earning loyalty. We provide a service so dependable that it becomes a daily habit for our customers and their users.
