About WIL
Our mission is to develop technology that enables wildlife experts to increase the speed and accuracy of ecosystem quantification, thereby helping to protect species and ecosystems at risk.
Alliances & Partners
At WIL, we work with scientists, engineers and conservation groups who share our vision and wish to use technology to help protect species and ecosystems at risk. We also partner with brands who empower us with their knowledge, technology and other amazing gifts; both monetary and in-kind.
Kuzikus Wildlife Reserve
We are closely partnering with Dr. Friedrich Reinhard from the Kuzikus Nature Reserve to test our developments while aiming to integrate them into his workflow. His research efforts at Kuzikus create the perfect testing environment to improve our software, while focusing on its integration into the workflow of wildlife managers at Kuzikus. Additionally, Kuzikus and Dr. Reinhard provide us with the Kuzikus Dataset as well as scientific guidance.
Meet our Advisors
We are students, PhD candidates and post-docs motivated by learning and creating while driving positive change. With WIL we follow the mission to integrate digitalization in the daily work of nature conservationists.

Prof. Dr.-Ing Wolfgang Boos
Professor Boos founded the WZL Aachen PS GmbH and, in association with Professor Günther Schuh, the WBA Aachener Werkzeugbau Akademie GmbH. As its managing partner, he supports the tool and die industry on its way from traditional to industrial toolmaking with regard to the networking of systems, digitalization of processes and use of new technologies.
Patron
Daniel Seidel
Daniel Seidel is one of the two founders of the Berlin based Space Startup LiveEO. He is also organizer of Europes largest NewSpace community “NewSpaceVision”. By applying AI on countryscale satellite data LiveEO generates usable insights for thousands of kilometres. This enables data driven decisions on management level as well as daily notifications for worker on the ground via web & mobile applications and asset management software integration.
Our technological developments would not be possible without our marketing, finance and partnerships teams. These teams lay the foundation for the pursuit of our mission to help nature with technology.
Get wild and join if you’re an enabler, making goals possible while being keen to take on responsibilities for projects.
Become an Enabler >
The core of our software are machine and deep learning algorithms developed by our WILD RESEARCH Team. Join if you’re eager to learn while applying your domain expertise in programming, data science or innovation management in a meaningful way.
Research with Us >
Together with our WILD Partners we test and validate our software in real world settings allowing us to generalize the algorithms while identifying the needs of many different nature reserves. Partner with us if you want to influence the development of the software based on your needs and working routines.
Become a Partner >
With the support and feedback of individuals and institutions in the field of technology and nature conservation we ensure the quality of the software with the aim of maximizing its impact. Ally with us if you want to help advise us in the development of our software platform.

To fully integrate our algorithms in the daily work of nature conservationists our WILD Development Team works on creating a software platform developed with and for nature conservationists. This Platform compiles the data extracted by our algorithms and allows conservationists to plan and strategize.
