Overview

Osmo.ai focuses on digitizing the sense of smell, starting with fragrances and aiming to improve human health and wellbeing. The process involves three steps: 'reading' odor molecules to create digital signals, 'mapping' these signals to understand and organize them, and 'writing' them back into scents. Their main product, the Osmograph, captures and reproduces scents like a photograph does for images. Osmo.ai stands out by licensing its technology to various industries, allowing businesses to offer personalized scent experiences. The goal is to transform how scents are used across different sectors, from fragrance to healthcare.
