THE PROBLEM
Most organisations still learn about infectious disease risk too late.
Symptoms, self-reporting and individual testing kick in when the signal is already established. By the time cases reach the surface, disruption to staffing, services and vulnerable populations is already underway.

WHAT UNTAP IS
A passive monitoring system built into the environments you already run.
Untap installs into wastewater infrastructure at site level. The device samples passively, analyses for relevant infectious disease signals, and turns them into clear, decision-ready reporting.
- Passive sampling, no individual testing, no behaviour change
- Pathogen detection across relevant infectious disease markers
- Same-day, site-level reporting for earlier operational response
- Privacy-friendly by design, anonymous and population-level

HOW IT WORKS
Three steps from wastewater to earlier warning, and one place to see it.
01 / 03
Passive sampling
The unit samples wastewater at site level on an ongoing basis, no behaviour change, no individual participation.
02 / 03
Pathogen detection
Signals are analysed for relevant infectious disease markers using validated methods.
03 / 03
Reporting & action
Findings surface through the Untap Dashboard so teams can respond earlier and more confidently.
BENEFITS
What teams get from earlier site-level signal.
Earlier visibility translates into outcomes across operations, clinical practice, cost and compliance.
WHY UNTAP
Designed for earlier warning, operational usability and broad real-world relevance.
Passive by design
No swabs, no behaviour change, no reliance on broad individual participation.
Earlier site-level warning
See emerging signals earlier and act before disruption becomes harder to manage.
Privacy-friendly
Anonymous, site-level monitoring that avoids the sensitivities of individual testing.
Multi-sector
Applicable across human and animal health environments where earlier awareness matters.
WHERE UNTAP APPLIES
Built for multiple sectors, not one narrow use case.
Untap's infrastructure adapts across high-density, operationally sensitive and mission-critical environments where earlier awareness matters.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
From single-site monitoring to earlier public health intelligence.
Untap is building infrastructure for earlier disease awareness where people live, work, study and care, across human and animal health, public health and critical operations.
