WaterBit develops precision irrigation hardware and software that lets growers manage and control irrigation remotely using a smartphone. Its WaterBit Carbon is a solar-powered, compact device that installs in minutes, collects data from sensors and controls irrigation valves 24/7. Carbon pairs with devices that monitor soil moisture, water pressure and flow, as well as weather conditions, and is designed to fit under foliage and operate in low-light conditions. The company markets its offering as Autonomous Irrigation Solutions (AIS) to allow irrigation decisions at a granular level based on plant stage, soil conditions, and weather. WaterBit intends to accelerate product development toward fully autonomous irrigation and to expand sales and marketing efforts. The company is led by CEO Andrew Wright.
