Our Philosophy
Water is the most important nutrient we consume daily, yet it receives the least attention. We track our proteins, our calories, our steps, our sleep, why not track the precise amount of water your body requires to function optimally? With optimal nutrition the human potential unfolds: the mind flourishes, the body develops healthy and strong and the individual becomes happy and eager to fulfill one's potential in life.
Optimal nutrition starts with the most important nutrient, water. Without sufficient hydration our cells cannot effectively process other nutrients to begin with.
Our vision
While a staggering 75% of Americans may be chronically dehydrated, we've been sold "hydration solutions" that can contribute to poor health outcomes:
- Plastic Bottles:Â Many contain chemicals that can act as endocrine disruptors.
- Sugary Drinks: A leading driver of metabolic syndrome, aging kidneys by 34 hours per serving, with studies linking high consumption to an increased risk of chronic kidney disease.
- Standard Filters: Many filtration methods like reverse osmosis strip water of beneficial minerals and electrolytes, producing demineralized water.
The result is a health crisis. In the U.S., obesity rates affect nearly 74% of adults, while in Japan, that number is under 5%. Their 6.6-year longer average lifespan isn't just genetics. While diet and lifestyle are key factors, we've ignored a century of pioneering Japanese research into the functional properties of water.
We make water designed to rebuild and fuel at the cellular level.
Our proprietary Bionic technology transforms any water source into Electrically Reduced Water (ERW), recreating the key properties of health-enhancing water found in legendary sources like Japan's Hita Tenryosui springs.
Proven by Science:
- Up to 500% More Dissolved Hydrogen:Â Delivers a potent dose of nature's most effective antioxidant, unavailable in standard tap or bottled water.
- High Negative Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP): A measurement of strong antioxidant power, typically ranging from -400mV to -800mV, which helps neutralize oxidative stress.
- Optimized Alkaline pH (up to 9.6):Â Creates an antioxidant-rich environment to help your body combat cellular stress.
The overarching goal at Python is to unlock human potential through optimal hydration. Our “North Star” metric is the tangible health benefit generated for our customers. Everything else—margins, market share, and roadmaps—is downstream of that singular focus.
Our goal is to give 100M people access to biologically optimal water by 2030
How are we solving the dehydration issue?
Current market offerings operate in silos. Smart bottles track intake, mostly inaccurately, but know nothing of the user's physiological state, activity, or environment.
Wearables track activity and heart rate but have no direct measure of fluid consumption. This data fragmentation leads to models with limited predictive power. Our analysis indicates that even the best single-stream models struggle to achieve an Area Under the Curve (AUC) for dehydration prediction above 0.80, which is barely acceptable.
A system that can synergistically fuse these disparate data streams—bottle, body, activity and environment—can create a significant competitive advantage by delivering a far more accurate and actionable assessment of a user's true hydration status.
The Bionic+ Ai product will move beyond simple reminders to offer personalized, context-aware guidance. It will passively collect data from the smart bottle and connected health platforms. The system will learn an individual's unique physiological responses and adapt its recommendations over time. Crucially, this will be achieved with a privacy-first architecture, where sensitive data and personalized models remain on the user's device, building trust and ensuring user control.
