Hakkı Yıldız
Founder & Chief Engineer
A field-trained engineer with his own workshop and technical team, with deep hardware and manufacturing experience. Not a slide-deck founder — a real builder.
The Vision
The Problem
Drowning happens silently. Existing cameras only record, they don't prevent. Human lifeguards can lose focus but AI never does. Running 24/7 lifeguards is prohibitively expensive. Pool accident compensations reach millions.
Our Solution
An AI system that analyzes behavior, not just motion. Distinguishes between water splashing, panic movements, and motionlessness. Integrated hardware with 4-layer analysis: Panic vs. Play distinction, Time-Based Analysis. IP67 industrial-grade enclosure.
Why We Win
Not just a software company — has its own workshop and production capability. Hardware production 3x cheaper, 2x faster than competitors. $50K for MVP and first batch (1/10 of competitors). Hybrid model: both hardware sales and annual software subscription.
Investment Highlights
- Capital Efficiency: Founder has own workshop — R&D cost minimized
- Clear Need: Life-saving product — sales persuasion is easy
- Hybrid Revenue: Both hardware sales and annual software subscription
- Fast Exit: Working product and market entry with $50K micro-investment
- Legal Mandate Advantage: Acts as pool safety insurance policy
Target Market
Private pool villa owners, Hotel Chains, Residential Management. First 2 years: luxury residential projects and 5-star hotels in Turkey.
