Regulatory methods have served us well for almost 150 years. Unfortunately, the lack of sensitivity, resolution or speed makes it impossible to effectively mange risk or optimize operations. They are prone to cross contamination and either require a laboratory with highly trained microbiologists or expensive outsourced labs.

Orb complements regulatory methods with enhanced sensitivity and high-temporal-resolution. We deliver microbiology without the need for a microbiologist. Our speed enables water quality managers to instantly react to minute changes in the biostability of their water process or distribution system. Results are delivered seamlessly to the cloud and ready for analysis or action.
