A healthier ocean starts with understanding it.
The Ocean Doesn’t Lack Data, It Lacks Connection.
ONA’s vision is to restore the balance of our waters by giving the world the data, insights, and tools.
The Challenge:
The State of Our Waters
We cannot solve what we cannot see and right now, much of the ocean remains invisible.
Biodiversity Loss
More species are disappearing faster than ever, disrupting natural balance.
Untracked Changes
Key shifts in temperature, salinity, acidity, and currents often go unmeasured.
Water Contamination
Chemicals, plastics, and waste are polluting our waters and harming ecosystems.
No Early Warnings
Algae blooms and ecosystem collapses are detected too late to prevent damage.
Low Oxygen Levels
Marine areas are losing oxygen, making it harder for fish and other species to survive.
Fragmented Data
Information is scattered across different institutions and formats.
The Problem: Broken Aquatic Data
The ocean economy is worth trillions, but it runs on broken, missing and outdated data. Over 70% of our planet is still a blind spot: most marine regions have no reliable information, existing data is often duplicated or hidden, and much of it becomes outdated before it’s even used. This leads to massive losses in disaster response, biodiversity protection, pollution management, and fisheries.
The Problems:
Ona's Answers:
Incomplete Data
Large parts of the ocean are still unmapped and unmeasured.
Outdated Information
Updates take months or even years, leaving us with old data.
Inconsistent Formats
Different sources use different standards, making data hard to combine.
Limited Access
Important information is locked away, costly, or not shared openly.
No Real-Time Insights
Data comes in too slowly to prevent or respond to damage in time.
Lack of Context
It’s difficult to compare and connect data across regions, making insights unclear.
Continuous Coverage
Continuous and consistent data collection across key marine zones to fill those gaps.
Real-Time Insights
Near real-time monitoring and fast updates that keep information fresh and actionable.
One Standard Layer
A standardized aquatic data layer that brings everything together in one clear structure.
Open Access
Transparent, openly accessible insights that allow everyone to use and benefit from the data.
Clear Analytics
Connected, easy-to-read analytics that show the bigger picture and support smarter decisions.
Expert Collaboration
Partnerships with marine biologists and institutions to ensure real scientific value.
How Do We Solve It?
We've created a trusted data infrastructure where every contribution becomes a measurable asset, connecting people, institutions and technologies.
Camille Lahoud, CTO
Trillions in Blue-Economy investment need verifiable data to flow.
ONA is turning the world’s waters into a real-time, verifiable, intelligent digital layer. With unified aquatic intelligence, we unlock better decisions, new business models, and entirely new markets. Join the Movement Shaping the Future of Our Oceans.
Be Part of a Unified, Intelligent Ocean
At Ona, we believe the future of ocean intelligence is built by two communities: Ocean Lovers (Web2) who explore, sail, dive, fish or work on the water, and Web3 Builders who love innovation, blockchain and pushing technology forward.
For individuals, we’re creating the Ona App, where anyone can contribute valuable water data and earn rewards for helping protect the ocean.
For businesses and organizations, we’re building the Ona Protocol — a decentralized infrastructure to supply, access, and verify high-quality aquatic data at scale.
