30 minutes. That's all the time you need to save 1.2 billion lives.
Cloudburst is an early warning system for flash floods using solar-powered mist sensors placed in remote areas. We detect sudden humidity spikes and water flow changes, predicting flash floods up to 30 minutes before they strike—combining ancient timekeeping principles with modern AI to create a life-saving network for those who currently have no warning system.
A villager in a remote mountain valley receives a text message: "Flash flood in 23 minutes - move to higher ground now." They look up and see only clear skies and sunshine, no rain, no visible threat. But they trust the message and gather their family. Exactly 23 minutes later, a wall of water crashes through where their home stood. The mist sensors miles upstream had detected the invisible wall of water racing toward them—a disaster prevented by data arriving before the water.
