WeatherPromise Secures Oversubscribed Series A Funding to Transform Travel Experience

WeatherPromise, an innovative technology company focused on travel, events, and recreation, recently announced the successful closing of its $12.8 million Series A financing, extending its total investments to over $22 million. This capital infusion, led by the esteemed venture capital firm Maveron, aims to redefine how consumers perceive and interact with weather during their travel experiences.

Leading the Charge in Weather Guarantees

Founded with a mission to alleviate the anxiety associated with uncertain weather, WeatherPromise stands out as a unique provider of weather guarantees. This means that if the actual weather conditions don't meet the expectations set at the time of booking, consumers are entitled to a full refund of their trip. Major travel brands like Marriott, Expedia, JetBlue, Invia, and HomeToGo have already adopted this service, encouraging travelers to book year-round without the fear of unexpected weather ruining their plans.

In a world where weather can significantly impact travel experiences, WeatherPromise ensures peace of mind for individuals planning vacations, attending concerts, or participating in outdoor activities. In fact, in 2025, WeatherPromise guaranteed weather conditions for travelers in an impressive 95 countries across six continents.

How It Works

The company utilizes a proprietary AI engine to deliver personalized and tailored offers for each individual trip or event. If the promised weather does not materialize, the system automatically issues a refund, making it a seamless experience for consumers. This transformative approach not only boosts traveler confidence but also enhances booking rates for partner companies.

Co-Founder Daniel Price emphasized the need for a solution like WeatherPromise, stating, "Weather is the most important factor determining when and where we travel. We all remember a vacation, concert, or game when rain ruined our plans. That's why we found a way to remove that anxiety, drive bookings and redefine how we think about our vacations and activities."

Investor Confidence and Future Prospects

The recent funding round was notably oversubscribed by more than three times, highlighting the strong belief investors have in WeatherPromise's potential to disrupt the industry. Notable participants include Lerer Hippeau, Clocktower Ventures, Commerce Ventures, and MS Transverse, among others. Dan Levitan, a co-founder and general partner at Maveron, will also join WeatherPromise’s board of directors, bringing invaluable experience and insights.

Levitan commented on the remarkable opportunity WeatherPromise presents: "WeatherPromise solves a problem that touches nearly every consumer experience, yet has been fundamentally broken for decades. The team has crafted a consumer-first solution with the potential to revolutionize how people plan, purchase, and safeguard their most valued travel moments. We’re excited to partner with WeatherPromise and support their growth."

The funds raised will be utilized to advance product development, foster strategic partnerships, and further scale the WeatherPromise platform across various consumer segments, thereby allowing it to meet growing demand in the market.

Co-Founder David Klemm noted the long-term growth potential the funding brings. “Thanks to our investors' faith in our vision and our team, we're now equipped to introduce WeatherPromise to millions of travelers around the globe.”
