Built for every seismic application

Grillo sensors and software are deployed across six distinct use cases—each with its own requirements, buyers, and outcomes.

Professional seismic hardware and software

The sensors, platform, and expertise to build and run a seismic network anywhere in the world.

Grillo Pulse

NEW

Professional seismic monitoring where infrastructure ends. The Pulse combines a geophone and MEMS accelerometer in a single node — covering everything from microseismic events to M7+ without saturation, with nanosecond GPS timing and direct integration into SeisComP, Earthworm, or Grillo Cloud.

  • No saturation — dual sensors cover weak motion to strong motion in one unit
  • No infrastructure — solar, LTE, and GPS onboard; deploy anywhere
  • No lock-in — streams directly to your existing seismic network
  • No compromises — 32-bit ADC geophone + 20-bit MEMS, IP68, -20°C to +60°C

Grillo Pulse

Grillo One

The urban strong-motion node built for scale. Tiny, low-power, and fully open source — the Grillo One is designed to be deployed in the hundreds across city infrastructure, buildings, and existing seismic networks. No digitiser, no proprietary lock-in, no compromises on data sovereignty.

  • Built for density — 20g PCB fits anywhere; deploy across entire cities or building portfolios
  • Fully open source — hardware, firmware, and software on GitHub; audit, modify, own it
  • No lock-in — integrates directly with SeisComP, Earthworm, or your own pipeline
  • Strong motion focused — 20-bit MEMS captures everything from felt earthquakes to M7+

Grillo One

Grillo Cloud

Manage your entire seismic sensor network from one dashboard. Seismic data streams directly to your on-premise servers in standard formats. Add SISTEM if you want Grillo to run automated earthquake detection and early warning alerts on your behalf.

  • Connect any sensor type
  • Real-time network health monitoring
  • Data routed to your on-premise servers
  • Optional: SISTEM automated detection & EEW

Grillo Cloud

One platform. Every seismic application.

Whether you're building a national early warning system or monitoring a mine site, Grillo's integrated hardware and software work together.

Earthquake Early Warning

Receive crucial seconds of warning before shaking arrives. SISTEM detects earthquakes and delivers alerts in real-time. Proven to outperform Mexico's government EEW system (SASMEX) in detection speed.

Rapid, Remote Deployment

Deploy sensors in days, not months. Solar power and LTE cellular connectivity mean no external infrastructure—perfect for fault lines, volcanoes, mine sites, or anywhere off the grid.

Full Network Monitoring

Monitor your entire sensor network from a single dashboard. Track device health, battery levels, GPS timing, connectivity, and data quality 24/7—from anywhere in the world.

Automated Event Detection

SISTEM combines STA/LTA algorithms with GAMMA machine learning for automated event detection, cataloguing, and magnitude calculation—in real-time.

Data to Your Infrastructure

Seismic data streams directly from Grillo sensors to your on-premise servers in standard miniSEED format via ringserver. No lock-in. You control your data pipeline.

Or Let Us Run It For You

Don't want to manage your own processing? Add SISTEM and Grillo handles automated earthquake detection, event cataloguing, and real-time alerts—the same stack powering our EEW deployments in Mexico and Haiti.

Deployed Globally. Proven in the Field.

From Haiti to Nepal, from government EEW systems to university research networks—Grillo seismic technology is working in the world's most challenging environments.

Haiti EEW Deployment

Earthquake Early Warning Systems

Working with UNDP, USAID, and national governments to deploy first-of-their-kind EEW systems. Haiti's Caribbean-first system. Puerto Rico's 100+ sensor network. Mexico's proven, peer-reviewed deployment.
