About Us

We're a high-performing team that has successfully worked together since 2008 before Orca Water was founded. In a previous life, we were a leading product design agency that transformed concepts into brand defining products, many of which were award winning products for successful clients.
Our experience in product design and development, software development, machine learning and manufacturing were all fundamental to starting Orca Water.

The Founding of Orca Water

The genesis of Orca Water began when the team's engineers started using ultrasonic sensors and applying machine learning to make sense of all of the data. What transpired was an analytics tool that could visualize and localize water use to specific fixtures through an interactive dashboard.
Through years of discovery, the team realized they had created a monitoring and predictive leak detection system that benefits water conservation.
