Mission
Redefining ocean safety, one coastline at a time
Harnessing the instinctive power of orcas, we’re building a smarter, safer, and more sustainable future for coastal communities.
The problem
When perception becomes the problem
Even though shark attacks are incredibly rare, the fear of them is real—and growing. This fear keeps people out of the water, off the beaches, and away from the communities that depend on them.
In 2024, just 47 unprovoked shark attacks were reported globally—the lowest total in over 30 years. Yet viral headlines, beach closures, and public perception have turned rare incidents into lasting anxiety for millions.
When swimmers, surfers, and families avoid the shoreline, it ripples across beach towns and local economies—impacting tourism, surf competitions, waterfront businesses, and seasonal livelihoods. In some areas, a single shark sighting can result in millions in lost revenue.
Outdated defenses still dominate
To manage this risk, many communities rely on outdated deterrents like shark nets, sonar fences, or chemical repellents. These systems often underperform—and worse, they put marine life at risk.
Coastal communities are left choosing between limited protection or environmental harm, with no scalable solution in sight.
Our solution
A new class of ecological defense
Orsinova is creating the world’s first autonomous orca deterrent system—a patented, biomimetic platform that leverages the predator-prey relationship between orcas and sharks to deliver a powerful, non-lethal solution.
Prevention, not reaction
Instead of waiting for a sighting or an attack, our platform creates a perceived orca presence—deterring sharks before they enter protected zones. It’s proactive, intelligent protection built on biology, not force.
Why it matters
Saving coastal economies
Fear of sharks has a direct impact on tourism. From Cape Cod to South Africa, communities have seen visitor declines in the millions, resulting in tens to hundreds of millions in lost revenue. Our technology restores public confidence—bringing people back to the water.
Protecting oceans, not just people
We believe safety and sustainability can coexist. Our solution uses no nets, no chemicals, and no physical barriers—just smart, ecological deterrence that works with nature instead of against it.

We’re building more than technology—we’re building trust, restoring economies, and changing the way the world thinks about marine safety.
