Drinking water, rebuilt as a network.
Nsuo pairs an NFC-enabled reusable water bottle with IoT smart dispensers. Tap to refill: filtered, UV-cleaned, logged to your app. Zero single-use plastic, ever.
NFC Near-field communication: the same tap-to-pay chip that's in your phone and bank card.
IoT Internet of Things: everyday devices connected to the internet.
Why UV-clean The dirtiest part of a refill is usually the bottle and its lid.
The refill process in display
“Nsuo yɛ nkwa.”
Twi, Ghana: “Water is Life.”Nsuo n·SOO·oh is the Twi word for water, the language of our founder's heritage. The proverb behind the name is the whole thesis: water is life, and the infrastructure that delivers it should treat it that way.
Three connected layers. One closed loop.
Public refill stations are unreliable, unfiltered, and untrackable. Nsuo replaces them with hardware and software built to run as a manageable infrastructure that allows monetization.
NFC-enabled bottle
A durable reusable bottle with an encrypted identity chip. Tap any dispenser to authenticate and refill.
IoT smart dispenser
Cloud-connected stations that verify your bottle, clean it with UV-C, and fill it with multi-stage filtered water.
App + cloud platform
Registration, subscriptions, refill history, and a live map of every dispenser on the network.
Tap to clean water in under one minute.
Every step of the cycle is automated, secured, and logged. This is the same sequence running live in the demo above.
NFC handshake
Place your Bonsua on the dispenser pad. Its encrypted BottleID transmits instantly.
Cloud verification
The dispenser confirms your active account with the network in under half a second.
UV-C, then filtered water
Your bottle is UV-cleaned, then filled through multi-stage filtration. No plastic, no waste.
Impact logged
Your app updates with the refill, your usage, and your real sustainability stats.
One network. Six ways to drink from it.
Three dispensers for the places water is needed most, and three bottles for the people who carry it.
Dispensers
Nsuo Abrua
The public dispenser. Built for airports, parks, and transit. High traffic, all weather, always on.
Nsuo Vertex
The architectural dispenser. Sits flush inside the wall of premium offices and lobbies, invisible until your bottle wakes it.
Nsuo Spring
The everyday workhorse for schools and gyms, sized to replace the wall fountains already on your walls.
Bottles
Nsuo Bonsua
The bottle for everybody. Encrypted BottleID, dishwasher-safe, sanitized at every refill. The everyday key to the network.
Nsuo Surge
The fitness bottle. Bigger capacity, high-flow lid, grip that holds up mid-set. Built to keep pace.
Nsuo Aero
The high-end bottle. Insulated steel, precision finishes, and a numbered Founder Series for the first believers.
Impact you can see and prove.
Every refill is logged automatically, so the environmental case for Nsuo isn't a claim. It's data.
Plastic eliminated
Bottles avoided per user, per site, and network-wide.
Water saved
Refill efficiency compared to single-use production.
Carbon reduction
Lower footprint versus bottled-water production and transport.
Refill frequency
Usage and location data across the dispenser network.
Bottles sanitized, and counted
The impact of a refill network is not only what it keeps out of landfills. Reusable bottles build up biofilm that ordinary rinsing does not remove, leading to bacterial contamination. Nsuo runs a dose-verified UV-C cycle on the bottle and lid at every refill, designed to target a 99.9% reduction in surface bacteria.
