About PTEM Labs
PTEM Labs is a structural intelligence firm focused on tropical cyclones. We study how storms organize internally, lock into primed regimes, and signal readiness for rapid change long before traditional intensity thresholds fire.
Structural coherence is the missing axis in most hazard stacks. PTEM maintains a frozen dataset, operates a governed analytical engine, and delivers governed structural outputs, with optional SDK access so risk teams can slot structural truth beside their existing workflows.
PTEM's canonical validation uses the Atlantic v1.2 frozen record (1851–2024) under pre-declared activation rules recorded in run manifests and validation receipts. Sensitivity analyses shown in /validation are illustrative and do not tune or select operating points.
What we focus on
- Running a reproducible, frozen dataset for benchmarking and regulation
- Rendering storms into structural snapshots and readiness channels
- Maintaining governance guardrails on every model increment
- Delivering lightweight, governed access surfaces instead of bespoke endpoints
The work is intentionally narrow: provide structural context, validation packs, and a governed delivery model so operational teams can see organization-driven risk without replatforming.
Who we serve
- Re/insurers needing a benchmarked structural signal alongside intensity guidance
- Modeling groups comparing internal views to an external, reproducible dataset
- Risk/control leaders who require auditable artifacts for regulators and boards
- Public programs & research teams that need structural readiness to plan and communicate
