Our tools make it easy for producers to monitor their water conditions, automate feeding schedules, and improve profitability with real-time insights. How AQUi9 achieved product-market fit Our product gained traction by addressing the main pain points of rural producers: the difficulty of controlling fish feeding and the need to boost productivity without increasing costs.

25% increase in feeding efficiency, optimizing feed conversion
Over $500 USD savings per tank, increasing profitability for fish farmers The evolution of AQUi9 Our growth journey has involved constant adaptation.
