By matching near real-time fire detection against the locations they insure, so the question is not "is there a fire" but "is it near our book". Satellite detection, ground reports and analyst confirmation identify the incident; the insurer's own exposure data determines whether it matters. RZAlert does that matching automatically and alerts the teams who need to act.

How quickly can a wildfire be detected?

Near real time, though detection and confirmation are different things. Satellite passes and automated feeds can register a heat signature within minutes, but an insurer needs to know whether it is a real incident, where it is heading and what it threatens — which is why RedZone pairs detection with analysts who watch fires around the clock in the Wildfire Intelligence Center.

What is a wildfire exposure alert?

A notification that an active incident threatens specific insured locations, rather than a general news bulletin that a fire exists somewhere. The useful version names the policies affected, so claims, underwriting and catastrophe teams can act on the same picture instead of assembling one each. See RZIntel for the analyst work behind it.
