Hi Product Hunters! Really excited to be featured here. h/t to @mackflavelle for hunting us. We'll hang out all day to answer questions. First, a bit on what we've built and what we're excited about.
Earlier this year we launched a simple version of MeterHero that would track your water and energy savings and pay cash rebates via sponsorships with companies that want to support sustainability. But we kept hearing from our users that they wanted to be more social in their conservation efforts. So this week we released our Communities feature. MeterHero Communities is a way for you to set up private groups to save water and energy with people you know and trust. So far, people have been using it at work to create sustainability challenges; in apartment buildings, especially where there's a common water meter and the landlord pays the bill; and of course amongst friends and family.
The Community feature is still very nascent, so we'd love to get feedback from you - the experts on community building. Since MeterHero works anywhere, we can see the potential for trans-regional and trans-global communities built around shared values. Ideally, this is a tool that gets used to empower people to solve local problems like water scarcity as well as develop local solutions to global problems like climate change.
