Publication number: 20250117857Abstract: Implementations described herein provide systems and methods for mitigating climate risk. In one implementation, a risk factor is determined based on one or more predictive climate models. The risk factor is applied to a specific home, and an effect of the risk factor on the specific home is determined over a period of time. A mitigating action personalized to the specific home based on the risk factor is performed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 6, 2023Publication date: April 10, 2025Inventors: Andrew Young, Sarah K. Webster, Marvin Lu, Leah M. Birch

Publication number: 20250119719Abstract: A device may obtain data associated with an event and process the data via an evacuation prediction and management engine to obtain an evacuation prediction. When the evacuation prediction indicates that an evacuation order is likely to be issued within a period of time based on the event occurring, the device transmits, via the evacuation prediction and management engine, an evacuation service offering to a user device. Upon a user of the user device confirming acceptance of the evacuation service offering, the device receives a payment for the user for the evacuation service offering. When the event or evacuation order occurs and based on the payment for the evacuation service offering, the device automatically initiates a payment to a user account.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 6, 2023Publication date: April 10, 2025Inventors: Andrew Young, Sarah K. Webster, Gabriel Federico Carballo Nunez, Marvin Lu, Howard Hayes, Leah M. Birch

Publication number: 20250117540Abstract: Implementations described herein provide systems and methods for mitigating climate risk. In one implementation, an environmental forecast factor is determined based on one or more predictive climate models. The environmental forecast factor can be, for example, an environmental condition applied to a specific home. A severity of the environmental forecast factor on the specific home can be determined over a period of time. A financial instrument can be created that invests in an asset that is inversely related to the environmental forecast factor over the period of time, where the financial instrument is predicted to appreciate in value to at least the severity of the environmental forecast factor.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 6, 2023Publication date: April 10, 2025Inventors: Andrew Young, Sarah K. Webster, Marvin Lu, Howard Hayes

Patent number: 12135803Abstract: A system includes a privacy vault storing user-associated contents. The vault also stores access permissions defined for third-parties with whom the user has a sharing relationship. An access permission defines, for at least one third party, procurement and utilization policies for vault contents accessed by the third-party. The system may access a user account to recover user-associated contents stored by the accessed account and stores the recovered contents in the privacy vault. The system receives a request from a third-party to access identified contents stored in the privacy vault and determines if the contents are procurable by the third party based on an access permission defined, in the privacy vault, for the third-party. The system provides procurable contents to the third party along with indication of any constraints on the contents defined by utilization policies of the access permission defined for the third party.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2023Date of Patent: November 5, 2024Assignee: Allstate Insurance CompanyInventors: Marvin Lu, Timothy Gibson, Thomas J.
