A BIT OF HISTORY
It all started over dinner
A friend uses cannabis & hemp to manage her Parkinson's symptoms. But, every time she made a batch of edibles, she had to test it on herself to determine the proper dosage. Unfortunately, one time, the batch was too strong and she ended up unable to work for a couple of days.
We originally designed a handheld spectrometer to help our friend manage her edible production. In this process, we discovered that spectrometery is commonly used in large food & agriculture production but unavailable to smaller operations or consumers.
Our mission is to simplify analytical lab instrumentation so that all producers and consumers may have control over their products.
