The company has secured over $1.2M in equity and non-dilutive funding — including support from Amazon Web Services — to accelerate CUMULUS, an AI platform purpose-built to deliver decision-grade coastal intelligence to a world that needs it more than ever.
When a storm threatens a coastline, the people responsible for protecting it — port operators, insurers, city managers, infrastructure engineers — are often working from different data sources that don’t agree, can’t sync, and weren’t built to talk to each other. Decisions get made anyway. Sometimes that works. Sometimes it doesn’t.

Coastal Measures is changing that.
Today, the company announced it has secured over $1.2M combined funding — including support from Amazon Web Services through its Generative AI incentive program — to accelerate CUMULUS, its AI platform for coastal and ocean data. With $400k more funding committed to close in the next several months as part of the pre-seed funding round, the company is well positioned to build the next wave of coastal intelligence.
“Data is how we see our coasts clearly — and right now, most organizations are working half-blind. CUMULUS changes that. When you can see the full picture, you don’t just reduce risk — you find opportunity,” said Josh Humberston, Ph.D., CEO of Coastal Measures.
Coastal Measures partners with sensor vendors to build a standardized data ecosystem that’s AI-ready on day one — turning fragmented, incompatible data streams into actionable intelligence for coastal operators, insurers, and engineers.
Alongside the funding, Coastal Measures named Matt Marino to its Board of Directors. Marino previously co-founded and led Galehead Development, where the company’s data platform unlocked large-scale capital investment in new solar and wind infrastructure, leading to its acquisition by Macquarie Asset Management in 2022.
