Our Story
In 2023, Bryan set out to apply his expertise in network automation to create a product that could positively impact the environment. He identified laundry as one of the most overlooked, repetitive tasks that consumes vast amounts of water. Frustrated by the inefficiency of the laundry process, Bryan began exploring solutions.
During the winter of 2023, he experimented with various filters. By 2024, he shifted his focus to flocculants and coagulants but faced significant challenges. After countless discussions with water industry experts, Bryan finally uncovered a promising solution. Recognizing the need for additional expertise, he sought out collaborators.
In the summer of 2024, Jonathan Miracolo joined the team and in 2025 both Josue and Azra joined. In 2026 Thomas Evant was hired to lead engineering while other contributors such as Rick Mitchell (Web Developer), Dylan Fashabaugh (Firmware / Electronics), Jonathan Yancy (AWS Infrastructure), and Hugh Denning (Machinist) joined the efforts.
