Bluebot Lets You Track Water Consumption Through An App On Your Smartphone

Manage and monitor your water consumption with ease using our innovative water consumption app. Stay informed about usage, detect leaks, and promote sustainability for a more efficient and cost-effective lifestyle.

~ Bluebot is an IoT-enabled device that can be easily clamped on a water line to get the data.

~ It shows readings both in terms of gallons and dollars so that you know the financial impact.

~ The makers are running a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo to find backers.

Monterey, CA, August 2020: In a day and age when we can track almost anything on our smartphones, it’s tough to understand why we haven’t started monitoring our water consumption through mobile phones.

Although 75% of our planet is covered by water, only 0.003% of it is fit for human consumption. Water is a scarce resource, and it’s high time we start keeping a check on its consumption the way we track our heart-rate, air quality, energy consumption, etc. 

Now, a talented bunch of industry experts and scientists have developed an IoT-enabled water-meter called Bluebot v8.1 that can help people track consumption and leakage of water through an app on their smartphones.

What sets Bluebot apart from its competitors is its universality. Anyone can install it by clamping it on copper, PVC, PEX, or galvanized water lines, ranging from ¾” – 2″ pipe sizes. It’s ideal for any property with an up to 2″ water line, single-family homes, townhouses, condos, apartments, small businesses, and second homes.

Once Bluebot is on your pipe, all you have to do is plug in to power, open the app, connect via Wi-Fi, and have on your smartphone everything you want to know about your water consumption. It captures around 43,200 data points per day to help you keep an eye on water leaks, reduce your monthly bill, and promote sustainability.

The data is captured and transmitted through an app to you within just seconds, and sometimes even faster. Regardless of where you are, you can have a second-by-second account of water consumption in your property. That makes it most suited for the vacation rental segment as well.

With one Bluebot app, vacation homeowners can connect multiple Bluebot devices, which means they can track water consumption at several properties with just one smartphone. It comes with a ‘Dollarize™’ feature that helps users convert water consumption on any specific use into a dollar amount.

Bluebot allows them to know how much they are spending on dishwashers or irrigation. Small business owners and households can benefit from this feature because it will help them keep a tab on every buck they spend on the water. 

The founders started working on the concept of Bluebot in 2017. Over the next three years, they refined its effortless installation, technology, and interface design.

Their efforts yielded desired results, as Bluebot meets all the requisite standards of consumer electronic devices set by the FCC and CE. The founders also hold a US patent on the technology behind Bluebot. 

They are seeking backers for Bluebot through a crowdfunding campaign at Indiegogo here. They are currently testing Bluebot v8.1 units and are also prepared for scaling.

The target is to begin fulfilling Indiegogo backers in October 2020 with the first round of units once the final round of testing is complete.

“During the testing phase, our users were able to reduce their property’s water bill by up to 42% over three months by implementing minimal changes to their water use habits. We plan to help millions in the US and Canada,” says Nicole Barkis from the core team of Bluebot.
