A meihd garden controller installed beside healthy tomato plants

Garden watering, grounded in evidence

A garden controller that learns your garden.

Connect the hose you already use. Water anytime, create your own rules, and let Mei learn from local weather, soil response, and what you grow.

  • Control stays yoursManual watering and your own rules remain available without managed care.
  • Mei shows the evidenceRecommendations explain the sensor, weather, and plant context behind them.
  • Automation is optionalManaged care is for continuous decisions, not access to your own hardware.

Less setup. Better context.

You know what grows there. That is enough to begin.

Most smart irrigation systems begin with soil types, slopes, precipitation rates, and a long form. meihd begins with a simpler question: what are you growing?

Plant categories, local weather, and real soil response give Mei a useful starting point without turning setup into a landscaping exam.

The controller

Built around the garden you already have.

The hardware is designed to live outdoors, connect to familiar watering equipment, and keep the physical action understandable from setup through every run.

  1. 01

    Connect the controller

    The app looks nearby first, then keeps QR and manual setup as clear fallback paths.

  2. 02

    Name one watering zone

    No threshold worksheet. Give the outlet a name and add a photo only if it helps.

  3. 03

    Watch a five-second test

    See water reach the right place, confirm the installation, and keep Stop visible while it runs.

Meet Mei

Advice that explains itself.

Mei is not a mascot and does not pretend to know every garden. It is the quiet advisory layer that connects three kinds of evidence and tells you when confidence is limited.

01

Soil response

What the sensor measured and how quickly this zone changed.

28%
02

Local weather

Recent rain, heat, and what is forecast next.

3 dry days
03

Plant context

The broad needs of tomatoes and basil in a mixed bed.

Fruiting
Mei suggests

Backyard beds may need 12 minutes of water today.

Sensor-supported · you confirm before the valve opens

Reports when evidence is ready

See what would have changed, event by event.

There is no arbitrary countdown. Mei shares concrete observations as data accumulates, then unlocks an initial report after enough useful days and comparable watering events.

  • Reports and per-event comparisons remain available on the free plan.
  • Limitations and tradeoffs appear beside potential savings.
  • Monthly reports continue whether or not you choose managed care.

A clear product boundary

Free control. Managed care when you want it.

The subscription boundary is continuing decision authority. It is not a fee to reach your own controller or to understand your own garden.

Included

Your garden, under your control

Use the controller directly and decide when Mei’s recommendations become actions.

  • Manual watering and your own rules
  • Garden history and activity log
  • Initial and monthly reports
  • Five Mei conversations each month
Optional managed care

Let Mei handle the next decision

Delegate ongoing adjustments inside safety limits you can change or revoke.

  • Automatic decisions within approved limits
  • Visible upcoming actions and persistent Stop
  • Seasonal pruning, feeding, frost, and heat reminders
  • Unlimited conversations with Mei

Designed for trust outdoors

Quiet when things are fine. Explicit when water moves.

01

Every physical action is visible

Immediate watering requires confirmation. Active watering keeps Stop in view until the valve closes.

02

Confidence is not decoration

Sensor-supported, plant-knowledge, and reference-only guidance are labeled differently.

03

Completed means completed

A finished watering event is recorded honestly. The interface never presents physical water as undoable.
