Safe Air, a startup from the eighth cohort of the GIA Manila program, has joined forces with Indoor Care to create comprehensive indoor air quality monitoring solutions to enhance wellness.
About Indoor Care
Indoor Care is a Workplace Wellness Software Solution that interprets complex indoor air quality data to make sense of the invisible pollutants within the workplace. Its user-friendly dashboard is designed for use by various stakeholders–Human Resources, Operations, Admin, Facility, and Building Management–to compare data among departments, floors, offices, and buildings locally or globally. Indoor Care allows users to view, analyze, and extract reports instantly, and provides AI-driven recommendations to improve indoor environment quality.
About Safe Air
Safe Air designs and manufactures full-stack, sensor-based air quality monitoring devices, using its unique and innovative technology solutions to empower a safer, healthier, and more productive indoor environment. Their proprietary Air Quality Indexes make it easy to detect bad air quality and take immediate action, which improves health, increases productivity, and generates economic value.
The Partnership
Integrating real-time air quality data from Safe Air’s cost-efficient devices with Indoor Care’s wellness dashboard, this partnership leverages the complementary strengths of both companies to offer clients a combined solution.
Designed to be intuitive, the dashboard summarizes air quality data using user-friendly wellness metrics: Wellness, Comfort, Productivity, Performance, Health, and Viral Risk.
Safe Air’s monitors measure key environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide, particulate matter (PM2.5, PM10), nitrogen dioxide, total volatile organic compounds, ozone, and ammonia, delivering precise insights to optimize energy efficiency and indoor wellness.
This partnership originated at Echelon Philippines 2024, where a corporate partner introduced the two founders. Following discussions, they worked on integrating Safe Air’s hardware with Indoor Care’s software, creating a seamless, end-to-end solution for prospective clients looking to monitor and improve indoor air quality. Indoor Care’s dashboard translates complex sensor data into easy-to-understand wellness metrics and supports facility-wide certifications such as WELL and RESET.
Now deployed across Singapore, India, Thailand, Indonesia, and the Philippines, this joint solution offers clients customizable, co-branded options with competitive pricing, making advanced air quality management more accessible and impactful.

Compatibility is key: A shared vision and overlapping client base laid the foundation for a synergistic and mutually beneficial partnership between Safe Air and Indoor Care.
Openness to collaboration: Indoor Care’s proactive support in integrating SafeAir’s devices with their platform was crucial in ensuring this partnership’s success.
