Breathing Bricks

Description du projet

Our project focuses on making indoor plant care simple, reliable, and scalable. Today, maintaining healthy plants is difficult because care depends on human memory and knowledge, leading to frequent plant loss, especially in offices and shared spaces. We are developing a smart planter system that adapts to specific plant types, and automatically waters plants when needed. The system is supported by a mobile application that allows monitoring and provides alerts. By combining sensors, automation, and plant-specific care, we aim to remove guesswork and enable thriving indoor greenery in modern environments.

Problématique abordée par le projet

Indoor plant care is still largely manual and inconsistent. People often forget to water plants, are unsure about the correct amount, or lack clear responsibility in shared environments like offices. As a result, plants frequently die, leading to repeated replacement costs and reduced effectiveness of biophilic design initiatives.

Solution(s) offerte(s) par le projet

• We offer a smart planter system that automates plant care. The system monitors soil moisture, identifies plant types, and waters plants automatically when needed. A connected mobile application provides monitoring and notifications, ensuring that users only intervene when necessary.

Besoin(s) du projet

• To further develop the project, we need support in: - Running pilot installations in real environments (offices, co-working spaces) - Refining product design for manufacturability - Validating willingness to pay and business model assumptions - Access to mentors and experts in hardware scaling and go-to-market strategy - Access to potential investors and early-stage funding opportunities - Feedback and guidance to refine our pitch and make it investor-ready The Mind & Market community can support us by providing access to users, expert feedback, and connections that help us validate, improve, and scale the project.
