Marketplace Tech (APM) | May 2026

Technosylva CEO Bryan Spear joins host Stephanie Hughes on APM’s Marketplace Tech to discuss how AI is reshaping wildfire risk prediction. The conversation covers how Technosylva’s models, trained at roughly 240x the resolution of general AI models, extend planning horizons from 5 to 15 days. Spear also addresses why historical data alone no longer captures today’s fire behavior, the company’s urban conflagration modeling work with PG&E and CAL FIRE, and expansion into broader extreme weather risk as climate-driven events increase roughly 25% per year.
