About My Water Live - From Water to CloudWater temperature has personality

My Water Live wasn't born in a boardroom; it was engineered at the water’s edge.

It started with a simple question at Tooting Bec Lido: “Do you log your readings anywhere?” Until then, my data lived only in my Strava descriptions. But it sparked a vision: a real-time network for lakes and lidos that lets you check the conditions before you’ve even left the house.

I noticed that whilst many swimmers carry their own thermometers, manual readings are notoriously clunky. Between cheap fish-tank thermometers, parallax errors and the curvature of liquid, two people rarely see the same number. Last winter, the poolside was a sea of individual gauges. Now, that clutter has vanished.

We provide the clarity so you can focus on the experience itself.

When the mind screams “don't get in”, do it - it's good for the soul.
