External data in. Quantified intelligence out.

Polecat turns fragmented external information into one consistent, evidenced view. Every score traces back to its sources, so you can explain the thinking behind any decision.

See it in action

Register-ready scoring

Every external risk scored for severity and financial exposure, in a format that drops straight into your risk register.

Trajectory intelligence

Forecast where each risk is heading, not just where it has been. Time to impact and expected recovery, quantified.

Peer benchmarking

See how exposed you are versus named peers moving through the same kind of event in your sector.

Evidence trail

Open any score to the sources behind it. A defensible audit trail for every number you report.

Insight tailored to you and your business.

Choose how your team consumes risk intelligence. Every deliverable runs on the same live, outside-in view.

Know what matters

Named exposure the moment it emerges, routed to the right team with severity and velocity attached. You hear about the risks that count while there is still time to shape them, not once they are on the front page.
