- Automated diagnostics for pulsing, air locks, pump sizing
- Historical data tracking across seasons
- API integration with smart sprinkler controllers
Target Users: Homeowners and small property owners with shallow wells used for irrigation in suburban and rural areas, typically single-family homes.
Revenue Model: $49 one-time sensor purchase + $4.99/mo app subscription for advanced diagnostics and data logging. Pro version at $9.99/mo includes historical analytics and multi-well support.
