Access was included in TIME’s Best Inventions of 2026 list! #TIMEBestInventions# “We focused on building a beautiful product that’s easy to use and affordable. If someone sees Access sitting on a table, we want them to ask, ‘What’s that?’ It’s awesome to see TIME recognize all the hard work that’s gone into it. Really proud of our team.” - Jon Criss, Co-Founder + CEO To compile this year's list, TIME solicited nominations from its editors and correspondents around the world through an online application process, paying special attention to growing fields such as health care and AI. TIME then evaluated each contender on a number of key factors, including originality, efficacy, ambition, and impact. "By putting water production into the hands of individuals and communities, decentralized infrastructure can make access to water more resilient and more universal. Access is just the beginning of that future.” - Andrew Harner, Co-Founder + COO See the full list of TIME’s Best Inventions here:
