This is a unique opportunity to join at the ground floor of a company that’s scaling rapidly. If you’re looking to make an impact and be part of a high-growth journey, Matter is the place to be.

We are building a wearable breathalyzer equipped with Bluetooth capabilities for an associated smartphone app. On the app, you can set your desired limit of intoxication. When you blow into the device, the LED will either shine a green light: continue drinking responsibly; a yellow light: slow down, you are approaching your limit; or a red light: stop, seek help, drink water, here's a button to call an Uber. If anyone is overly intoxicated, all their friends are notified through our in-app social network. Our distribution strategy is to partner with academic institutions to distribute directly to students. We have a verbal commitment to provide GreyBands for a single freshman dorm of 185 students at Duke University, and then we plan to leverage this commitment at other universities in NC. We will expand this reach and grow these relations to whole freshman classes. We will also sell to consumers on our website.
