Engineering solutions for global challenges

Most of our conservation work happens in protected areas across the globe — places where rangers patrol thousands of square kilometres without cell coverage, where poachers move silently at night, and where an elephant or a brown bear stepping into a village can change lives in seconds.

We build the hardware and software that ranger teams, NGOs and research institutions rely on in exactly those conditions. Solar-powered, satellite-connected, ruggedized for heat, dust, rain and curious wildlife — and refined every season by the people who actually use it in the field.

The result is a small set of three field-proven platforms — and the deployments that prove them.

Some of our work starts with a question nobody has answered yet. "Can an autonomous drone help rangers spot illegal logging from the air?" "Can a 3D-printed laryngoscope be safe enough for a rural hospital that can't afford the commercial one?"

Innovation, for us, means prototyping what doesn't exist yet — and proving it in the field. We help organisations imagine, design and build the first version of something new, then learn fast enough to decide whether to scale it.

It's also where Hack The Planet started. SkyHawq, our very first project in 2016, was an autonomous fixed-wing drone built for Greenpeace — and many of the lessons we learned in the Indonesian rainforest still shape every product we ship today.
