Be the first to build with OWL IoT

OWL IoT is a plug-and-play network for connecting sensors and devices anywhere. There will be bugs. But if you’re curious, hands-on, and ready to explore, we’d love to have you in our Early Access.
How It Works

From idea to live network

Get started with OWL IoT in three simple steps. Join our Early Access program, get your Starter Kit, and start building your own resilient network with help from our team.
Step 1

Join early access

We’re opening OWL IoT to a small group of early builders and tinkerers. Apply to join and, once approved, you’ll get a private invite to order your first Duck kit and access the OWL DMS.
Step 2

Get your kit & set it up

Purchase your Duck hardware with early firmware and setup tools. Flash, connect, and watch your network come alive in the OWL dashboard.
Step 3

Give feedback and shape what comes next

Tell us what works (and what doesn’t). Your feedback helps guide every new firmware update and hardware improvement.
"OWL was built by a team of builders. From our early hackathon days to deployments in the field, we’ve always learned by doing, soldering boards late at night, testing firmware in the rain, and figuring out how to make things work when nothing else would. That same spirit lives on in our community today. OWL IoT exists for the builders, engineers, and curious minds who push technology forward by trying, failing, and trying again. This Early Access is our way to stay close to that energy, to keep building with the people who inspire how we build in the first place."
