Spectee Launches New Service 'Kyoten Risk Karte' to Diagnose and Visualize Disaster Risks

Spectee, Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Kenjiro Murakami; hereinafter referred to as "Spectee"), a resilience tech startup, today announced the launch of its new service, "Kyoten Risk Karte." "Kyoten Risk Karte" is a service that automatically scores disaster risks such as earthquakes, floods, and tsunamis at each business location and visualizes them as a "karte" for each location. It allows for comparison of risks between locations on the same standard, supporting the review of BCP and prioritization of disaster prevention investments.

Furthermore, when used in conjunction with the AI disaster prevention and crisis management service "Spectee Pro" or the next-generation supply chain risk management cloud "Spectee SCR," it provides end-to-end support from normal times to real-time response during risk events.

Background of Service Provision

In recent years, natural disasters such as heavy rains due to climate change and major earthquakes have become more frequent and severe, placing even greater demands on companies for preparedness and improving the effectiveness of their Business Continuity Plans (BCP).

However, many companies with multiple locations nationwide, including head offices, factories, warehouses, and stores, struggle with information organization and are unable to grasp the disaster risks at each location comprehensively. They face the challenge of not having a basis for deciding which locations should be prioritized for allocating limited disaster prevention budgets.

Through "Spectee Pro" and "Spectee SCR," Spectee has so far supported the rapid grasp and visualization of damage situations during disasters. Leveraging this expertise, the company is now venturing into the domain of "visualization of latent risks during normal times." With the provision of "Kyoten Risk Karte," Spectee aims to achieve a system that supports everything from pre-disaster measures during normal times to response during emergencies.

What is "Kyoten Risk Karte"?

Simply by registering the location of a business site, the service automatically diagnoses multiple disaster risks inherent in the location based on information such as hazard maps and disaster history provided by public institutions, and organizes them into an easy-to-understand "karte" for each location.

Example of Kyoten Risk Karte (Near Chigasaki Station, Kanagawa Prefecture)

【Main Diagnostic Items (Examples)】

Estimated seismic intensity based on probabilistic seismic hazard maps

Estimated inundation depth for tsunamis, storm surges, and floods (assuming maximum scale)

Inclusion in sediment-related disaster warning areas, etc.

Elevation and distance to the coastline

Liquefaction tendency

Nearby evacuation shelters

Past disaster history in the vicinity

*Items other than those listed above can also be newly added or customized according to customer requests.

3 Features

Disaster risks consolidated into one "karte" per location

Risks requiring attention can be confirmed at a glance through easy-to-understand visualization.

Supports prioritization of disaster prevention investments

Since risk scores for each location can be compared on the same standard, it supports decision-making on "which location to invest in and what to invest in," contributing to the optimal allocation of limited disaster prevention budgets.

Operable without specialized knowledge

Since diagnostic results can be obtained simply by registering the location, companies without dedicated personnel for disaster prevention or BCP (Business Continuity Planning) can smoothly introduce and operate the service.

Future Development

Spectee will develop "Kyoten Risk Karte" into a comprehensive risk assessment platform that supports corporate business continuity. In conjunction with "Spectee Pro" and "Spectee SCR," Spectee will sequentially expand its functions to evolve into a platform that allows for the integrated grasp of risks not only at its own locations but also at those of its suppliers and business partners.

Expansion of diagnostic items: In addition to natural disasters, the scope of evaluation will be gradually expanded to include lifeline risks such as power and water outages, and geopolitical risks.

Support for overseas locations: Risk diagnosis for overseas locations of globally expanding companies will also be supported.

Assessment of impact on management resources and business continuity: The aim is to visualize the impact of each risk on management resources such as personnel, buildings, and equipment, as well as on business continuity, not just the location risks of the sites.

Advancement of countermeasures recommendation: Development is underway for a function where AI suggests countermeasures to be taken for each location and BCP priorities based on diagnostic results.
