Prettier garden
No more guesswork or wasted water! GeoDrops uses A.I. (artificial intelligence) sensors to measure exactly how much water your garden needs.
Hassle free
GeoDrops gives you peace of mind by continuously monitoring your garden and soil. It can even control your Irrigation System directly with the optional GeoDrops hub.
Up to 70% water savings
Overwatering can result in unhealthy roots and withering plants. On average, nearly half of household water is spent outdoors, where GeoDrops can save up to 70%.
The Future is now
With class-leading technologies in a tiny package, GeoDrops can also monitor your soil temperature for when to seed, detect water leaks, plus so much more!
GeoDrops helps maintain a beautiful garden
GeoDrops works across all garden and soil types
Flowers
(example: raised-bed, wood chip & sandy soil)
Vegetables
(example: ground-level, loam soil)
Lawns
(example: ground-level, clay soil)
Easy as 1-2-3
GeoDrops is simple to set up, and easy to use
1) install smartphone app
to pair GeoDrops to your home WiFi network.
2) insert sensor into soil
with just a tiny hand shovel and be done in seconds.
3) just sit back and enjoy
built-in A.I. sensor array analyzes your garden, and starts recommending the best watering schedule in as little as 1-2 weeks!
(plus) add an optional hub
for individual sensors to directly manage and drive your irrigation controller's schedule!
Garden care done right
In addition to online weather forecast, GeoDrops also measures the followings to determine the most effective and efficient watering schedule.
(Previously, this level of on-site measurement could only be achieved using agricultural-grade sensor systems, costing thousands of $)

Best lawn buddy
GeoDrops is also purposely designed to be your perfect lawn companion!
Hidden in plain sight
Go ahead, enjoy your lawn
Each GeoDrops sensor is the size of a sprinkler head, and is tough against everyday outdoor use.
With up to 1 year battery life, it's truly a set-and-forget experience.
Works in any garden
GeoDrops works across all soil types, as well as all common watering methods shown below.
Manual watering
GeoDrops App reminds you of when and how long to water.
Irrigation controllers
GeoDrops Hub (available late 2023) can directly control your traditional controller's entire irrigation schedule and provide Wifi access, turning your good old irrigation controllers "smart".
Smart controllers
GeoDrops Hub (available late 2023) can augment your Smart Controller by regulating its built-in watering schedule with a more effective one custom tailored to your own garden.
And so much more ...
Advises when to plant or seed
Most nurseries and retail stores start selling new plants before spring has truly arrived. Because GeoDrops monitors your soil's actual temperature level and more, it can recommend the best time to plant or seed your garden.
Reduces bugs, flies, and fungi
Pesky insects, as well as mold and fungi, thrive on excessive moisture due to overwatering. GeoDrops helps you water efficiently deep to the root zone, allowing the lawn and soil surface to remain dry much longer.
Detects nearby water leaks
Each GeoDrops sensor can discover water leaks from broken pipes or sprinkler heads in its vicinity, potentially saving you hundreds of $ on your water bill, not to mention the possibility of property damage before it's too late.
