Aquarate

Aquarate was a UK digital health and medical device company focused on preventing dehydration through sensor-based hydration monitoring technology. Its main product, marketed as Hydracare or Hydracup, was a smart cup system that automatically measured patients' fluid intake and transmitted data into software used by care staff. The company targeted care homes, hospitals, and other elderly-care settings where manual fluid balance monitoring is often inaccurate and labor-intensive. Aquarate worked with healthcare organizations in the UK and positioned its technology as a way to improve patient safety, reduce dehydration-related complications, and digitize routine care workflows. Although the company appears to have reached commercial use in care settings, the legal entity is now in liquidation.
