Lawrence Ying

Ex-Googler Computer Architect (2007-23)

Our Founder and CEO

Have you ever wondered why our smartphones and computers have all the latest technology, while our home and garden feel so left out?
Yes, that's exactly what we thought too!

Lawrence Ying is a visionary, an engineer, and the Founder and CEO of Homedigy, the startup behind the creation of GeoDrops. He was one of the first twenty hardware engineers at Google, as well as one of Google Platforms' chief computer systems architects, and has been a pioneer in reinventing how modern computer systems work in the Cloud era.

Born from Frustration, Fueled by Innovation

GeoDrops was born out of a common homeowner's struggle: unreliable watering. Existing smart irrigation systems often overwater or underwater plants, and consumer-grade soil sensors frequently provided inaccurate readings. Traditional agricultural sensors, while effective, were prohibitively expensive and required constant manual recalibration. After testing dozens of options, the team behind GeoDrops knew there had to be a better way.

A Team of Experts, a Shared Vision

The GeoDrops team is composed of visionary minds and seasoned engineers from top US tech companies, united by a common goal: to harness advanced sensor technology and AI to revolutionize home irrigation. GeoDrops empowers homeowners to cultivate thriving landscapes with minimal effort by bringing cutting-edge technology into
everyday life.
