We create and democratize world-changing technologies to apply on the frontlines of conservation, from artificial intelligence to molecular science, that allow anyone, anywhere, to change the reality of what is possible in conservation.

Sentinel

Democratizing AI for wildlife and disease monitoring

Learn More

Sentinel makes wildlife monitoring  smarter with revolutionary and intuitive AI technology, processing environmental data in real-time as it’s collected at the device. By working through satellite and cellular networks, Sentinel enables early detection and rapid response to wildlife-related threats and changes in population well being.

  • CXL has deployed 200 Sentinel devices in 8 countries and five critical island ecosystems.
  • Sentinel is positioned to protect 10% of invasive-threatened vertebrate species globally by 2030.
  • Operational cost savings of up to 90% when compared to current manual methods
  • Accelerated response times from 15-1000x faster than current manual methods
