About Inhalio
Inhalio is a global leader in digital scent systems that is enabling large corporations to make the Digital Scent Transformation into IoT Home & Automotive markets with its Digital Scent AI Platform TM. Inhalio is pioneering the digital transformation of the scent industry with its proprietary Digital Scent AI Platform. Through real-time data collection and AI-driven analysis, the platform delivers profound insights into how consumers interact with scent—across environments, preferences, and behaviors.
For decades, the fragrance industry has largely relied on passive, one-way delivery systems—candles, sprays, plug-ins, and traditional diffusers. While effective at distributing scent, these products offered no way to understand how consumers were engaging with them. There was no feedback mechanism, no personalization, and no ability to optimize based on user behavior or preferences. Inhalio recognized this as a critical blind spot—and an enormous opportunity.
Inhalio is ushering in a new era of scent experiences through digital transformation. By embedding connectivity, chips, and AI into our diffuser and cloud technology, we’ve turned simple scent dispersal into a data-driven, interactive, precise, and intelligent system. This shift enables a three-way relationship between the user, the product, and the brand, where each interaction generates valuable insight.
Inhalio’s platform captures and analyzes how and when users engage with scent, including preferred ingredients, usage patterns, and contextual triggers like weather or time of day. This intelligence is then processed through AI models to deliver personalized scent recommendations, demand forecasting, and behavior-based segmentation. By turning every diffuser into a smart data device, Inhalio offers its B2B2C clients a new kind of strategic capability: the ability to understand consumer sentiment and sensory preferences at a granular level, in real time.
Brands gain a competitive edge by crafting hyper-targeted marketing campaigns, improving product design, enhancing customer satisfaction, and building long-term loyalty. In parallel, consumers benefit from a seamless, intuitive scent experience that evolves with their needs.


By partnering with Inhalio and using the Digital Scent AI reference platform, companies can deliver their own unique scent solutions for consumer-centric health, wellness, and wellbeing solutions, extend and transform the personalization of their products, as well as bring their fragrance solutions into the connected home marketplace and meet the demand from a new generation of digital consumers.
Unlike primitive wet-oils, heat, or wick-based delivery solutions, Inhalio employs a precision dry-air scent system using infused polymers that delivers a perfect fragrance rendering. This dry-air system also delivers significant advantages for both our partners and their customers including: a more stable scent medium especially across wide temperature ranges, a more consistent scent experience, a safer and healthier way to deliver scent, a greener and sustainable practice.
The Digital Scent AI Platform is more than technology—it’s a business transformation tool. It enables companies to rethink how scent fits into their customer journey, not just as a mood-enhancing element but as a measurable, responsive, and strategic part of the brand experience.
