SPROUT teamed up with TechStars alum Ecovent to create a system of smart HVAC vents that are controlled from your smartphone.  Ecovent’s sensors, which plug into a standard wall outlet in each room, detect the climate of that room and send the information to the smart hub.  By building the groundwork for an Internet of Things [IoT] home control platform, Ecovent was able to create a system that will be able to connect with a wide variety of smart products. We worked hand-in-hand with the founders to design both their product and branding. The result was $2.2 million bump in funding and over a half-a-million dollars in pre-sales.
