The mission

The Next Wave of Water Abundance.

Vision

A future where every living being enjoys access to perfectly pure water.

Mission

Create the best water on earth.

The story
It started with dew on a lawn.
DROUGHT
Reuben Vollmer gets a call: the State of California could pull his parents' water rights at their small mountain ranch. Their retirement, an olive orchard, could vanish in an instant.
THE DEW
Walking his dog the next morning, Reuben considers the dew covering a wide lawn. Why couldn't the moisture in the air be the water supply for a ranch?
2014
A decade of engineering begins: inventing and innovating atmospheric water harvesting processes for everything from lawns to ranches to homes.
FLINT
Reuben visits Flint, Michigan, sitting with families affected by the contaminated water crisis. The stories he hears only strengthen his resolve.
2019
Reuben meets entrepreneur Tyler Breton. They hit it off immediately and form Spout: a device for the home that makes superlative drinking water that never passes through a pipe.
TODAY
After years of prototypes, trial and error, and fine tuning, the Monolith is heading to homes across the country. This is only the first chapter.
Values
What we hold watertight.
01
Science & nature
The meeting point of real physics and a little magic. Water from air is both.
02
Security & trust
Water independently tested by third-party labs against a broad range of contaminants.
03
Ingenuity & design
A decade of invention, shaped with Bould Design into an object worth the counter.
04
Simple & precise
Solutions that fit effortlessly into people's lives. Plug it in. That's it.
05
People & planet
Health and well-being for families, with less plastic and less waste.
06
Sustainable & responsible
Net-zero water transport. Delivered but not depleted.
The commitment
"We won't stop innovating and creating new products until water travesties like the one in Flint are a thing of the past."

Our impact

Millions of refills. One planet.

Every refill is a step toward less reliance on single-use plastic. Across the Spout community, water made from air could replace millions of bottles each year.

Modeled refill potential, not a measured count of bottles saved. Bottle replacement assumes each 500 mL refill takes the place of a single-use bottle. Actual output varies with temperature, humidity and use.

Potential plastic bottles replaced

7,737,382 500 mL bottles per year

Glasses’ worth of water

16,352,000 8 US fl oz glasses per year

Annual community model: 1,400 Spouts × 32 cups per day × 365 days. Each cup is 8 US fl oz.
