About
Sonic Fire Tech, headquartered in Cleveland, US, specializes in innovative acoustic fire suppression technology aimed at safeguarding properties from wildfires. Their solutions are designed to effectively mitigate fire risks in vulnerable regions. Founded in 2019 in Cleveland, US, Sonic Fire Tech develops advanced fire suppression systems. The company's founder has a rich background in acoustics technology, enhancing its innovative capabilities.
In June 2025, Sonic Fire Tech raised USD 3. 5 mn in a Seed funding round, co-led by AirAngels, Khosla Ventures, and Third Sphere, marking a crucial step in their growth strategy. Sonic Fire Tech specializes in advanced acoustic fire suppression technology designed to protect residential properties from wildfires. Their flagship product, the Sonic Ember Shield, operates by deploying from the attic through concealed ducting in the rain gutters, forming a protective non-ignition zone that prevents embers from igniting flames.
This system utilizes patented infrasound technology developed by former NASA acoustics engineers, ensuring silent operation without the need for water or chemicals, which eliminates collateral damage and false alarms. Targeting homeowners in high-risk wildfire areas, Sonic Fire Tech's solutions are particularly relevant in regions such as California, Colorado, and other states prone to wildfires. The company services both residential clients and commercial infrastructure teams, aiming to safeguard lives and property in an era of increasing fire risk. Sonic Fire Tech generates revenue through direct sales of its patented fire suppression systems, primarily the Sonic Ember Shield, to homeowners and commercial entities.
The business model includes one-time purchases for installation, as well as potential subscription services for ongoing maintenance and monitoring of the systems. The company positions its product within the market of wildfire mitigation solutions, appealing to both individual homeowners and larger organizations, including utilities and public safety departments. Pricing structures for the systems reflect their advanced technology, with costs associated with installation and customization based on the specific needs of the client’s property. The company has garnered interest from insurers, suggesting potential partnerships that may offer premium reductions for property owners who implement their technology, thereby enhancing market value and safety for properties in wildfire-prone areas.
In June 2025, Sonic Fire Tech successfully raised USD 3. 5 mn in Seed funding to further its growth. The funding will be used for product certification planning, scaling domestic manufacturing, building an installation partner network, initiating pilot installations, and expanding access to public-sector grant funding. The company aims to develop new products to enhance its offerings and plans to expand into additional markets, targeting regions with high wildfire risks to ensure comprehensive protection for homeowners and businesses.
