Krado Leaflet
Happier plants, happier people.
How often have you killed your brand-new house plant? Caring for plants can be tricky, but knowing and understanding them can help keep them healthy and happy. Krado Leaflet is a smart plant sensor designed to monitor and track your plant's every need to help you provide the best care for your plant. The Krado Leaflet monitors your plant's needs and behaviors to help you best care for your plant and stop problems before they start. Utilizing highly precise Ag tech, the sensor measures temperature, humidity, moisture and light quality; sharing that information straight to your phone with a detailed care guide to ensure the best quality of life for your plant.
Hatch Duo partnered with Krado to make caring for your plants easy and accessible. After months of thorough prototyping with our industrial design and mechanical engineering teams we designed and engineered the Krado Leaflet, packaging and application. The sensor is the first of it's kind, helping promote sustainability and better plant care in homes everywhere. Since it's release on Indiegogo, we helped Krado far surpass their campaign by raising over $13,000, 130% of their set goal.

When designing the form, we drew inspiration directly from the environment the Leaflet would live in. The leaf silhouette is unobtrusive and blends seamlessly into its environment.
Plants have an aura about them that is vibrant and inviting. We drew inspiration from the environment house plants live in, often surrounded by soft daylight near a windowsill or warm candlelight. For the Krado Leaflet we felt that energy would be best translated through subtle glow that radiates from within the sensor onto the plant leaves around it.
The Krado Leaflet housing is 100% 3D printed using the latest additive manufacturing practices. Compared to other manufacturing methods like injection molding, 3D printing uses less energy and reduces wasted materials. Additionally, the plastic is fully recyclable and reusable.
The Krado Leaflet app works in harmony with the sensor to help better care for your plants at home. Through the Leaflet app you can log entries on how your plant is doing, complete daily plant care tasks, and gain advice on how to best look after your plants. You can also peruse the marketplace to purchase new plant nutrients and tools helpful to your plants.
We designed the Krado Leaflet packaging to be fully recyclable and sustainable. It is unique and beautifully minimal, leveraging simple manufacturing methods to construct an intuitive design with user friendly instructions.
