The industry's first digital gas sensor and Freshness AI
Patented sensors detect spoilage gases inside sealed packs. AI converts raw signals into bacteria counts, odor scores and shelf-life forecasts. All on a live cloud dashboard.
Sensor to insight, in three components
Three components. One seamless platform.
Sensors
BearCub sensors go inside the pack on the production line and detect spoilage gases continuously.
Data
Gateways read sensors and push data to the cloud automatically. No manual steps, no lab wait times.
Dashboard
Real-time shelf-life data in a clean web platform. Export, compare, and decide with confidence.
Molecular-level freshness detection
Our revolutionary gas sensor technology detects the subtle chemical signatures that indicate food freshness at the molecular level. By continuously monitoring these volatile compounds, we provide unprecedented visibility into product quality at a package level.
The technology originated in peer-reviewed research at Imperial College London and is independently validated by Campden BRI.

Bridge between sensor and cloud
Our gateway devices form the bridge between sensor data collection and cloud-based analysis. These plug-and-play units capture Bluetooth signals from our freshness sensors and securely transmit the data to our cloud platform for immediate processing. Connect via cellular networks or WiFi.
Actionable freshness intelligence
Our data models transform complex gas measurements into accurate microbial counts and precise shelf-life predictions for various food categories. The Dashboard interface delivers actionable freshness intelligence accessible from any device.
