Sorcerer is a weather technology company building a global network of high-altitude balloons and airborne sensors to improve weather observation and forecasting. Its systems collect substantially more data than existing systems, including measurements from places where conventional weather stations are scarce, such as oceans and regions below the equator. Sorcerer says this network can gather observations from any point on Earth, helping address gaps that leave much of the world with limited or no adequate forecasts.

The company’s data supports meteorologists tracking and forecasting extreme weather, with observations used daily across the United States and Central America. Sorcerer also applies AI modeling to produce regional forecasts at higher spatial and temporal resolutions. Its recently launched product, Stratocast, is a high-resolution weather forecast designed for airborne operations.

Sorcerer offers access to Stratocast and invites prospective users to book a demo. Based in San Francisco, the company is hiring and describes its team as small and capable, with opportunities for employees to take ownership and make a direct impact.
