How Biobot Analytics CEO Mariana Matus grew to $18.1M revenue with a 122 person team in 2023.

Biobot Analytics is at the forefront of a revolutionary approach to public health monitoring, transforming sewers into invaluable public health observatories. Wastewater, often overlooked, is a treasure trove of data reflecting the health trends of entire communities. Our mission is to harness this untapped resource by collecting and analyzing wastewater samples, providing actionable insights to improve urban health and well-being.

Our pioneering product focuses on the measurement of opioids and other drug metabolites present in sewage, offering a novel way to estimate drug consumption levels within cities. This critical information empowers those involved in harm reduction efforts by providing a clear picture of the drug use landscape. Stakeholders can use our data to effectively assess the magnitude of the opioid epidemic, strategically allocate resources, and monitor the impact of their interventions over time.

In essence, Biobot Analytics leverages advanced technology to make the invisible visible, turning everyday wastewater streams into powerful tools for community health assessment and improvement. Through our work, we aim to provide cities with the knowledge they need to foster safer, healthier, and more resilient communities.
