AI-powered water management platform for rural infrastructure
Water systems for a changing planet®
Rural water outages cost billions every year.
—Tens of billions in wildfire damageNOAA & CoreLogic: Western US wildfire losses exceeded $10–20B in insured losses per year in 2017, 2018, 2020 & 2021..
—$6.4B in utility infrastructure lossesUSDA & federal infrastructure loss data tracking utility damage from undetected water failures across rural America.
—No water visibility = loss of insuranceISO’s Public Protection Classification (PPC): 40% of a property’s fire rating is based on water supply. Properties without verified water availability fall to Class 10 — the effectively uninsurable tier.
—8.4M rural properties exposed across the American WestCensus & USDA data on rural properties across the 11 Western US states; defines meter.me’s American West SAM.
What's missing: digitization and visibility

The problem, every rural water system is bespoke.
So digitization is forcing IoT companies to put their own boots on the ground at every customer. This does not scale.
—SCADA: too expensive and complex for rural
—Today's IoT is built for engineers, not installers
Until now, this was unaddressable

—Installer companies handle 5000+ systems
—They only deploy SCADA to 1% to 2% ($$$)
—IoT can bridge the gap, but it's too bespoke and complicated

#2 Run systems autonomously.
AI handles bespoke naturally.
Maggie monitors autonomously. She understands topology, elevation, and flow. She closes valves, reroutes water, and alerts the right people.
