Brand: SUPomat.eu | Product: Smart Access Layer for Water Sports
SUPomat is a universal technology designed to revolutionize the way people access water sports. We provide an automated system that turns any location into a 24/7 self-service rental hub. Our goal is to make kayaks and SUP boards as accessible and easy to rent as city bikes or scooters.
The system is built to solve the biggest headaches for paddlers: the need to own, store, transport, and pump up bulky equipment. With SUPomat, high-quality gear is always on-site and ready to go. The user journey is seamless: you scan a QR code on the rack, sign the waiver, pay with your phone, and the smart lock opens. It takes less than two minutes to get on the water, with no staff or physical office required.
Why SUPomat should win the Innovation Award
SUPomat introduces a new global standard for the industry. It’s not just a locker; it’s a digital bridge between manufacturers, operators, and customers.
- Universal Access Layer: Our system is designed to be hardware-agnostic. We can automate existing racks, trailers, or transport cases, but we also provide our own modular solutions. This flexibility allows anyone to start a rental business in days, not months.
- True Independence: We use a unique offline technology that allows the locks to work without any power supply or Wi-Fi. This makes it possible to bring 24/7 rentals to the most remote lake shores and beaches where traditional connectivity fails.
- The Try & Buy Revolution: We are changing how gear is sold. By using SUPomat as a testing point, manufacturers can let customers try specific models on the water and then offer a direct link to buy them through an affiliate module in the app.
- Spontaneous Recreation: We unlock the golden hours of sunrise and sunset. By removing the need for on-site staff, we enable people to follow their passion whenever they want, significantly increasing the utilization of the equipment.
What sets the product apart
SUPomat is an open platform. We want to empower every manufacturer and resort to digitize their fleet under their own brand. It is a low-impact, eco-friendly solution that requires no ground interference or cables, making it the most sustainable way to grow water tourism. Our recent success in Poland and the ongoing rollout in the US prove that the market is ready for this shift towards a smarter, more automated future.
