About

Good Machine specialises in developing new climate ventures and providing consultancy on established technologies and product improvements. To date, Good Machine has collaborated with over 50 companies to address global challenges through hardware solutions.

Good Machine’s process is informed by two critical principles: rapid prototyping and human-centred design with an emphasis on affordability and reliability.

Project Focus

Good Machine will assist up to eight companies over four years, aiming to reduce the cost of their post-harvest loss solutions by 20-30%. This advisory will include product design, component reduction, prototyping, field testing, and validation. Interventions will vary from design optimisation to end-to-end engagement (design optimisation, production, quality control and after sales service advisory), depending on the product’s maturity.
