About Us.

Alato builds bioacoustics hardware and software that turns wildlife sounds into actionable insights for conservation and research.

OUR VISION

Alato exists to make wildlife monitoring simple, accessible and impactful so anyone can collect better data with less effort.

Our goal is to build easy-to-use affordable hardware and software for conservationists, ecologists, and community groups so they can better understand the biodiversity in their environment and make the best decisions for our native fauna

Next-Generation Monitoring & Analysis

We are on the path with the development of our new full spectrum acoustic monitor the SoundScout due for launch in 2026 and the launch of Alato Labs, our analysis software that automatically detects NZ bat species from bioacoustic data.

Built in Partnership with Conservation Leaders

We are partnering with DOC, Councils and large community groups to build products that not only serve a purpose but that make an impact.

Supporting Conservation Where It Matters Most

We proudly support NZ conservation groups with discounted pricing and project support to ensure our precious native species not only survive but thrive.
