About us

Our Story


Our smartphones can see, hear, react to touch and can even think in the meantime. What is completely missing are smelling and tasting.

We want to change that!

Our "sniffing electronics" make products of higher quality and the lives of people worldwide safer. With our technology even smallest concentration of harmfull compounds can be detected.

Founded in 2020 as a spin-off of the ETH Zurich, we have so far been intensively dedicated to the development of our first product: the world's first portable methanol detector. This should prevent future methanol poisonings, which claim thousands of victims every year.
