Torch Sensors is a California-based startup focused on early outdoor fire detection. The company has developed an advanced fire detection device, called the Torch sensor, which is designed to identify fires as small as the size of a car, and often even smaller, when placed every 10 acres. This technology aims to provide early warnings to prevent the spread of wildfires, thereby reducing property damage, improving air quality, and decreasing carbon emissions.

Torch Sensors primarily serves clients in high-risk fire areas, including property owners, hospitality businesses, and municipalities. The startup operates in the fire safety and environmental protection market, which is becoming increasingly crucial as wildfires become more frequent and severe globally.

The business model of Torch Sensors revolves around the sale and installation of its fire detection devices. The company generates revenue by selling these sensors and offering specialized installation services. The devices are built to withstand harsh weather conditions, including rain, smoke, UV exposure, dust, water, pollution, and extreme winds, ensuring reliable performance over several years.

Torch sensors are equipped with multiple infrared cameras, visible cameras, and gas sensors. These components work together with an intelligent algorithm that continuously analyzes the environment to detect fires early with high accuracy. Once a fire is detected, instant alert notifications are sent to the property owner, allowing for quick response and potentially saving lives and property.

Deliveries of the Torch sensors are set to begin in winter 2023. The company’s mission is to make outdoor fire detection as widespread as indoor fire detection, aiming to cover every piece of land at high risk of outdoor fires.
