Off-Grid Intelligence
Mariko Earthgrids
CONNECTING COMMUNITIES, STRENGTHENING RESILIENCE
Mariko EarthGrids is building revolutionary infrastructure that transforms how communities monitor, understand, and respond to their environment. Starting in New Zealand, we’re deploying low-cost, locally owned sensor networks that track river levels, climate conditions, and infrastructure health, all creating a resilient mesh network that operates even when traditional systems fail.
HOW IT WORKS
Our platform connects three essential groups:
1. Datafarmers—individuals and families who host devices and earn rewards
2. Communities—who gain tools for safety, planning, and self-determination
3. Institutions—who need hyperlocal data for better decisions and risk reduction
With powerful AI assistants, blockchain-based governance, and a marketplace built on equity, Mariko is more than a tech solution; it’s a movement reshaping how data is gathered, shared, and valued from the ground up.

A DIGITAL NERVOUS SYSTEM FOR THE PLANET
We believe the future of resilience is community-powered, culturally-grounded, and globally scalable. Starting here, spreading everywhere.
Always-on resilience — Functions independently of internet or power grid
Community ownership — Local control, local benefits, local empowerment
Cultural foundation — Indigenous governance principles ensure ethical development
Global scalability — Proven model ready for worldwide deployment
Technology that serves communities, not the other way around.
By focusing on the urgent need for resilient and reliable river level monitoring and alerting, Mariko begins by overlaying nature’s own neural pathways (rivers and lakes) with a sustainable, low-cost, decentralised, digital nervous system for our planet, Earth.
Rivers are the best place to understand the health of the planet — because everything flows into them. From floods and droughts to pollution and climate extremes, rivers carry the signals of change first.
As our IoT network expands, these waterway-connected nodes form the foundation for real-time insight, delivering early warnings and connecting us to a living flow of environmental intelligence — vital for both local response and global climate adaptation.
Join the Movement
Whether you’re a community seeking resilience tools, a partner wanting to support innovation, or an investor backing technology that creates positive change, we invite you to help us build the world’s first community-powered digital nervous system for Earth.
