Qwake has pioneered a revolutionary life-saving AR vision and AI navigation platform that gets firefighters in and out 3X faster, dramatically increasing the safety and effectiveness of fire response for over 1M US firefighters. Qwake sells to the 29,000 US Fire Chiefs whose departments spend $18B annually on safety equipment and are facing more complex, fast moving, and toxic fires and increased pressure to address occupational cancer, the #1 cause of death amongst firefighters today. Qwake is taking its revolutionary product C-THRU into production for a Q1-2024 product launch. Qwake’s team of 15 from Berkeley, Stanford, and MIT, Apple, Meta, and NASA is led by Sam Cossman, whose work leading expeditions into smoke-filled volcanoes inspired this innovation.
