uHoo is a technology company specializing in advanced indoor environmental monitoring solutions to enhance health, well-being, and sustainability by addressing air quality challenges.[1][2][3] It builds the uHoo Aura and uHoo Smart Air Monitor, comprehensive devices that measure up to 15 parameters including temperature, humidity, CO2, CO, particulate matter (PM1, PM2.5, PM4, PM10), VOCs, formaldehyde, air pressure, light, sound, and optional sensors like nitrogen dioxide or ozone; these serve homes, businesses, and commercial environments to solve poor indoor air quality (IAQ), virus transmission risks via the patented Virus Index, and decarbonization needs.[1][2][3] uHoo targets global markets across 20+ countries, enabling users to track data via a dashboard, integrate with building systems, and pursue green certifications, with strong growth in commercial adoption for productivity and ESG performance.[1][2]
Founded in 2014 amid rising air pollution concerns threatening health, safety, and the climate, uHoo emerged to deliver accessible indoor environmental solutions.[1][4] The company was built specifically to assist people with breathing conditions by monitoring and managing air quality, evolving from early focuses on health into comprehensive sustainability tech.[1][2][4] Pivotal traction came through product iterations like the uHoo Aura, which expanded monitoring capabilities and added features such as NB-IoT/LTE-M connectivity for remote areas, positioning uHoo as a leader in IAQ management.[1]
uHoo rides the indoor air quality and sustainability megatrend, amplified by post-pandemic health awareness, climate goals, and ESG mandates for buildings.[1][2] Timing aligns with rising demand for IoT-enabled environmental tech in restricted areas and green certifications, where market forces like regulatory pushes for decarbonization and occupant well-being favor precise, real-time monitoring.[1][2] It influences the ecosystem by enabling smarter buildings, partnering with platforms like Soracom for connectivity, and contributing data standards (e.g., RESET), helping businesses improve productivity and planetary health.[1][2]
uHoo is poised for expansion through sensor upgrades, deeper IoT integrations, and virus/climate tech advancements, capitalizing on global sustainability regulations.[1][2] Trends like AI-driven IAQ predictions and net-zero building mandates will accelerate adoption, evolving uHoo from monitor provider to full ecosystem enabler. As air quality challenges intensify, uHoo's mission—clean air for all—positions it to drive healthier, greener spaces worldwide, building on its 2014 vision of accessible solutions amid escalating pollution threats.[1][4]
uHoo has raised $4.0M across 1 funding round. Most recently, it raised $4.0M Series U in January 2025.
