Brief Description

MonoLets, Inc. is a systems company developing a wireless sensor network for the Internet of Things. The company builds the network with the lowest power System-on-Chip (SoC) hardware platform that can be operated from harvested energy requiring no external battery. The company's patented silicon and wireless mesh technology was developed over five years of research and development at UC Berkeley. Monolets' mission is to enable extremely reliable connectivity in challenging RF environments (metal & liquid obstruction), thereby providing access to real-time information at scale. The technology was purpose-built to solve the unmet commercial needs of creating low-power standards compliant wireless systems that can be deployed at massive scale.

As of 2024, MonoLets’ array of active asset trackers (Cellular, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth shipping labels) became commercially available. Each device comes with built-in patented wireless mesh capability that provides high reliability, extended communication range, coverage, and battery life while simultaneously reducing the infrastructure footprint.

MonoLets provides end-to-end real-time and 100% accurate inventory, location, and condition tracking of any asset - both inside a warehouse as well as in transit (land, sea, and air routes) globally. A full stack solution provider (hardware & software) with API-level access to supply chain actionable data. The company's printable Bluetooth shipping labels self-organize into a patented wireless mesh network providing reliable connectivity, resulting in 100% inventory accuracy even within challenging RF environments which is unique to the industry. Lightweight (10x lower infrastructure cost than other competing technologies) and standards-based infrastructure enables deployment at scale.
