WHY MATTER
01
One platform for waste and stormwater.
Most vendors do one or the other. Matter's waste and water products report into the same platform, so a council runs one system, one login and one supplier relationship instead of two.
Instead of a bin-sensor vendor, a flood-sensor vendor, and two dashboards that never talk.
02
Fits what you already own.
Think Lid retrofits to the bins already on your streets. StormPuck mounts inside existing pits — installed in under 30 minutes.*
03
Predicts. Doesn't just report.
StormPuck combines radar sensing with AI to flag a rising blockage before the storm, not after the road floods.*
04
Built to be left alone.
Battery life rated up to 16 years on SensAI,* and M.Care managed monitoring keeps the fleet healthy — so the platform never becomes your team's second job.
05
Designed and built in Australia, with CSIRO.
Engineered here for Australian councils, bins, pits and weather, in research collaboration with CSIRO. The people who built it are the people who answer the phone.

ONE PLATFORM
Keep scrolling — every Think Lid and SensAI in this city connects to one Matter platform.
This is your city.
Bins on every street. Stormwater pits under every road. Today, both are invisible until something goes wrong.
Every bin, online.
Think Lid retrofits to the bins the city already owns — and starts reporting live fill levels from day one.
Every drain, watched.
StormPuck watches the water with radar — no contact, no fouling — and warns before it overflows.
One city. One network.
Waste and water on one platform — and tomorrow’s collection route already optimised.
