Designed and Made in Colorado

We have been building Rachio for the better part of 15 months now and have a set of driving values that are essential to our continued passion as a company and have helped guide the design of our first product.

We obviously have a strong focus on sustainability through the reduction of water waste in our own backyards. A little less obvious is our passion to heavily contribute to the state we call home.

It has been a goal for our team from the very start to design, manufacture and assemble our product right here in Colorado. And we are very proud to say that we have accomplished just that and have been accepted into the By Colorado state branding program.














From the very start, we designed Iro with water conscious, outdoor loving, land optimizing and beautifying, tech savvy Coloradans in mind. With their help, feedback and guidance we’ve created a product that we believe embodies these characteristics as an amazingly simple, smart sprinkler controller that will not only appeal to Coloradans, but to the much larger market as well.














We are grateful and lucky to have been able to partner with so many local companies to help us build everything from our messaging, to our apps, to our hardware, and soon, our packaging. 

Creating a physical product along with software hasn't been easy and there’s no way we could have done it without help from a few very special Colorado companies, none more important for us than Intertech Plastics.  We can’t thank the people of this company enough.















The resources we need to build amazing products are right here in our own backyard and we encourage everyone to find and use them. We’re proud to be a Colorado company and can’t wait to make Colorado proud of us.
