Squeezing more juice from batteries.

Big Picture

Batteries now power everything from smartphones to cars, ships, and planes. The more battery performance is maximized, the fewer costs incurred and resources used. New battery chemistries promise faster charging, longer lifespans, and greater safety, but can take decades to scale. Yet, software and firmware can deliver the same gains today with sophisticated battery modeling and optimization.

How it Works

Breathe develops physics-based models and cutting-edge algorithms to design battery management software (BMS) tailored to any customer’s battery cells, modules or packs. Their BMS is the world’s first health adaptive battery software that optimizes battery use at every moment to deliver faster charging and a step change in battery lifespan—all with enhanced safety and zero physical change.

Unfair Advantage

Breathe delivers performance gains equal to chemistry breakthroughs without any additional space, weight, or materials. That means instant battery juicing without needing to develop, derisk, manufacture, or scale novel hardware. Their BMS is chemistry-agnostic, enabling integration with any existing or future battery design in various devices, from smartphones to supercars to airplanes.
