WHO WE ARE

WE MAKE WATER VISIBLE

We care about water and the life that thrives on it. Pollution is on the rise and efforts to restore our blue reserve are slow. To solve this problem, one must measure it – but real time water data remains sparse and expensive. It is our vision to make water quality visible anytime, anywhere.
