Summary
Mateo Mayer is a founder and tech lead with over two decades of deep R&D and entrepreneurial experience, now focused on building deployable AI workstations and advanced water-quality sensors through LocalPrompt.ai and EasyMeasure. He combines a PhD in polymer reactor engineering with hands-on expertise in sensor fusion, ML, physics-based modeling and embedded hardware—skills proven by multiple market-ready products from Aquacolor and Water Waves. Mateo is co-inventor on 150+ patents, some used commercially and others deliberately copyleft to protect open-source approaches, reflecting a pragmatic blend of IP strategy and community-minded engineering. Equally at home with Linux, blockchain primitives and crypto as with optics and (bio)chemistry, he specializes in turning niche scientific ideas into robust, field-proven systems. Based in Utrecht, he has a track record of building things “no one asked for” that users eventually rely on.
