Real-Time River Data Layer for Flood Risk & Freshwater Resilience

Riverkin is a Swiss water-tech startup creating a real-time data layer for rivers and watersheds. By delivering continuous, analysis-ready hydrological and sediment data, Riverkin enables organizations to monitor river behavior at scale, respond to hazards quickly, and make informed operational and regulatory decisions.

Freshwater remains one of the least digitized parts of critical infrastructure, with hydropower operators, insurers, and environmental managers relying on sparse monitoring and manual sampling. Riverkin addresses this gap with dense, automated, and cost-efficient monitoring, providing actionable insights where traditional methods fall short.

Our solution supports flood risk management, ecosystem protection, regulatory compliance, and climate resilience planning. By unifying fragmented monitoring into a single river data layer, Riverkin empowers stakeholders to collaborate effectively while building long-term datasets to safeguard freshwater resources.
