Everything we're working on. Click a milestone for details.
Upload an underwater photo. Get a species ID with a confidence score. Formal identification takes 13.5 years per species today. Our models train on FathomNet's 100K+ labeled images. They hit 95-98% accuracy on known species. Unrecognized finds get flagged for human review.
80-90% of marine data sits on private hard drives. Deep Commons is an open platform to fix that. Standard formats (Darwin Core, CF Conventions) plug into OBIS and GBIF. Communities keep ownership of what they collect.
Ocean monitoring gear costs hundreds of thousands. We build open-source kits under $5,000. Based on the proven LoCO AUV design. 3D-printed parts, off-the-shelf components. Built to be assembled and repaired locally.
Communities most dependent on the ocean lack study tools. Shorekeepers trains coastal communities to monitor their waters. The 12-week curriculum covers hardware, eDNA collection, data reading, and conservation planning.
Seagrass beds and mangrove forests absorb carbon. We measure that sequestration and generate certified credits. 60% of revenue goes to local stewardship communities. The rest funds operations.
