The problem we are focussing on is uncontrolled water waste in households. Due to a lack of awareness, insight, and incentivization, people use water without giving it a second thought, a problem that in countries like the Netherlands currently does not seem to matter much. This will change in the future due to climate change. Water availability will decrease, and, due to development and a growing population, water consumption will increase. We need to be able to do more with less which means increasing water use efficiency, awareness, and knowledge.

The proposed solution is to build an easy to access platform to incentivise saving water using gamification principles. Starting with creating an easy to use application and later implementing smart tech in your house to get a better insight into the actual water use and where water can be saved.
