Case Study: Sutro simplifies pool monitoring with Grio’s smart mobile app

Sutro launches a seamless iOS and Android app with Grio

Sutro, an IoT startup, sought to simplify water management for residential pool owners with their Smart Monitor device but faced the challenge of building the mission-critical mobile app that would serve as the user's primary touchpoint. As a small team with core expertise in engineering and chemistry, they needed a partner to lead technical decisions and coordinate seamlessly with their other outsourcing partners across the globe. They chose software development vendor Grio to tackle this core functionality of their business.

Grio implemented an agile development approach with frequent communication and a focus on customer feedback to build Sutro's iOS and Android application. The solution included a user-friendly app for controlling the hardware, a barcode scanner for identifying chemicals, and an internal AI recommendation engine. As a result, Grio delivered a performant app that is central to the Sutro ecosystem and provided meticulous documentation, with the Sutro founder expressing that the team was impressed with the work done.
