 Emerald measures the most important air parameters which affect your health and comfort.


 Plus 4 other important features:

           





Mobile app

Emerald is connected to its own mobile app that displays all your air data in real-time.
     It will alarm you when any of the parameters is exceeded and help you be sure that the air your family breathes is always clean.    


Moreover, it will tell why you slept poorly or how to be more productive in the office.

For more in-depth analysis, the Emerald App also shows you the air parameters from the last 24h and offers tips on how to improve your indoor environment.

Simple, right?

Android app will be available in July.

    Quick check    

                                    

You don't need to have your mobile with you to check your air quality. You can always do a quick check by simply touching the device to find out if your home is safe.

Green light indicates that everything is fine, while red alerts that something is not right.


 

Easy to install


 Using a special magnet sticker, easily install your Emerald in any room you want monitored. Select 1 of 8 room types and be sure that every room in your home is protected.

                 




Airadicate

The smart air purifier.


                


What’s smart about the Emerald Air system?

An Emerald sensor alarm about your home’s low air quality automatically triggers the Airadicate purifier which then goes to work to filter up and eradicate airborne threats.

               

Unique technology


Airadicate kills all the viruses, bacteria and mold in the air with LED UV-C disinfection. It also filters up odors, smoke, PM2.5, VOCs, and allergens.




Airadicate has 3 built-in advanced composite filters which each providing 4-stage filtration: preliminary, anti-allergy, HEPA and carbon. The filters last up to 1 year so no need to worry about frequent changing. Replacements cost only about $20 and you can change them yourself, hassle free.   

           

Once the filtration process is done, the Airadicate purifier then goes to work on the viruses and bacteria in your home using our advanced LED UV-C disinfection technology.

     Airadicate has a powerful built-in 120x120mm fan which delivers 150 m3/h of airflow. One device covers up to 25 square meters (270 square feet), about the size of an average room.

            

Why we created Emerald Air?

     

Every day, we take more than 20,000 breaths.

We spend up to 90% of our lives indoors

where the air can be 8 to 10 times more polluted than outside.

Today, more than 300 million people suffer from asthma or allergies.

 Air pollution is responsible for 5.5 million deaths around the world each year.

Now you have a weapon to protect your loved ones from indoor air pollution that causes asthma, allergies, sickness and discomfort.

              


Our Journey

 

Over the past year, our team has been working extremely hard interviewing customers, designing, prototyping, coding and testing. 

     After countless tests in our lab, 

we’ve built 7 prototypes as the final version of Emerald


and compared it to Tiger, a $7,000 VOC detector. As you can see below, the lines are directly correlated. 


    Thanks to our unique algorithms, Emerald is even 30% more sensitive to VOCs.  

                                               

Where are we now?


    We have recently completed the PVT (Production Validation Test), which involves manufacturing, assembling and testing. We've selected experienced manufacturing partners that have built and shipped millions of devices and are ready to do it again with Emerald.

 
Now we are ready to start mass production.    
 The only thing left is to raise our goal to get it going.


 Why Indiegogo?   


When building a product that addresses something as important as health, we didn't want to build it in silence, hidden away somewhere in a lab.
Your support will be the signal for us to go ahead with manufacturing and to start making your home a safer place, one Emerald Air at a time.

We are an experienced team of designers, engineers, and operations experts.

 We aim to design the best product that helps people live smarter and healthier.


Risks and challenges


Creating hardware is harder than hard!

 But we live for such challenges, and we’ll continue to build excellent products to keep you and your family happy and healthy! That said, there are still risks associated with manufacturing, testing and shipping a physical product.

To limit these risks, we have contracted manufacturing partners that have produced countless consumer electronics products and are fully capable of scaling our business. What’s more, they are located within a 20 min drive from our HQ, which enables us to closely oversee production and immediately deal with any issues that may appear.

On the other end, we have selected experienced logistics partners to ensure that shipping goes smoothly and on time.

If any unexpected difficulties arise, we will be in the best position to remedy the situation, and of course, we will keep you informed.

We really appreciate your support and can’t wait to get your Emerald Air systems to you!


FAQ


Who should buy Emerald Air?

It’s for anyone and everyone who cares about their health and well-being. We rarely realize how indoor air affects our health. Breathing in even small amounts of harmful substances causes headaches, lowers productivity, leads to asthma or allergies, and even increases the risk of cancer - and you don’t even know when it happens. That’s why we have created Emerald Air - to help you see what’s invisible and give you a chance to protect your family from sickness and discomfort.


Technical Questions


How small is Emerald and how much does it weigh?

Emerald measures 2.1x2.1x0.6 inch (55x55x15mm) and only weighs 3.45 ounces (98 grams).


What are the ambient operating conditions of Emerald?

The ambient temperature range is from 41°F (5°C) to 149°F (65°C), and the relative humidity range is from 0-95%.


How does Emerald measure air quality?

Emerald measures air pollution in real time, detecting a wide range of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). It alerts you when your home or office air becomes not safe.


How often does Emerald take an update its air measurements?

Emerald takes measurements of its environment once every minute when you are at home. When you’re out, Emerald does it every 15 minutes and then displays the results in a chart on the mobile app to give you the picture of the last 24 hours. But you can also choose a mode that on demand takes measurements every 3s.


Does Emerald have its dedicated mobile app?

Of course! We have created a mobile app for iOS 9+ and Android 4.3+ devices with Bluetooth Low Energy support. You can download it already from the App Store and Google Play


Is the Emerald Air mobile app free?

Absolutely! The Emerald Air app is free to use, and there are no additional subscriptions. We also provide free software updates, so that your Emeralds get even smarter over time.


How many Emeralds can you connect to the mobile app?

You can connect up to 5 emeralds to your mobile app.


Will the app also have the temperature in Fahrenheit, inHg for barometric pressure measurement and a 12-hour clock?
Yes, it can be configured to Celsius/Fahrenheit, hPa/inHg and a 12/24-hour clock.  


Will there be continued support/updates for the app?

Yes! We have a long roadmap for new features and are committed to perfecting the system. If you have any suggestions, please contact our team.


Do Emerald sensors require an Internet connection?

Emerald sensors can send your data directly to your iOS or Android smartphone via Bluetooth Low Energy, so you don’t need to be connected to the internet.


Can you use Emerald without a smartphone?

Yes, you can touch the Emerald logo on the case. The device will then do a quick measurement and light up green or red depending on the air quality. Green - everything is ok, but red means that something is wrong with your environment, and you need to consult your mobile app. The Airadicate purifier can work autonomously even without the app or the Emerald sensor.


Can you get phone alerts about your environment?

Yes, you receive notifications in the mobile app if a problem appears along with a description and tips & tricks on how to fix it in the easiest way.


Is Emerald powered by a battery?

Emerald has a built-in 1000 mAh rechargeable battery which you’ll need to recharge just a few times per year (depending on usage). You can recharge your Emerald with any standard certified micro-USB mobile charger that you use for your phone. A micro USB cable is also included with every product.


How long will the battery last?

Battery lifetime depends on how often Emerald makes its measurements. If you choose to take measurements once per minute, the battery will last about 30 days on a single charge. 


How much space can one Emerald and Airadicate cover?

One Emerald and one Airadicate device can cover up to 270 square feet (25 square meters). Generally, one Emerald per room in your home is enough. Remember to place your Emerald at the height of 5.2-5.9ft (1.6-1.8m) in the rooms where you spend most of your time.


Is Emerald Air waterproof?

Emerald Air was designed to enable good airflow to the sensors inside the casing, so it cannot be waterproof at the same time. Please keep it away from water or humid places.


Is Emerald calibrated?

Each device will go through calibration and tests on our production line before it gets shipped to you.


Where is Emerald Air made?

Emerald Air is fully designed and manufactured in Poland, in the heart of Europe. We have established partnerships with manufacturers and suppliers 20 min away from our HQ based in Wroclaw.

Where is Emerald Air shipped from?

Can I change my shipping address after I pledged?

Yes, after the campaign is over and as we get the first batch of Emeralds ready, we will send you an exit survey to confirm all the information. Then you can change your shipping address.


How can I lower my shipping costs?

International shipping costs outside of Europe tend to be high. That’s why we advise bundling your Emerald purchases with friends to cut shipping expenses in half or more. Plus remember, sharing is caring!
