A snapshot of the problem your startup will solve to make the world a better place:

We build AI-powered tools for governments, businesses, and people to mitigate wildfire by early detection. The earlier we detect a wildfire, the better actions we can take to control it. Wildfire is a global problem. Government alone is not enough to combat wildfire. We need businesses and people to participate in reducing wildfire risks and damages more effectively. We developed LookOut to help businesses and people to protect their assets and communities. It is flexible. It is quick-to-deploy. It is easy-to-use.

Our LookOut wildfire detection Software-as-a-Service works with existing video cameras. New hardware is not required, and therefore deployment is much faster! You can turn on LookOut on your video camera in 5 minutes. LookOut uses Machine Learning object detection to detect wildfire from the images captured by the camera. It detects wildfire automatically and accurately 24/7. If LookOut finds anything suspicious, it will send alerts to users via mobile app. It is easy to use. LookOut is deployed in 5 markets now. LookOut will serve 12 countries by the end of 2021. We will bring LookOut to Santa Cruz very soon!

 “Our experience with Santa Cruz is very nice. All the people we know are very friendly. There is a strong culture to support startups. Santa Cruz, California, and the US is under wildfire threat. We want to help and bring our LookOut solution to the country. Santa Cruz is the best place for us to start.”
