Water infrastructure runs the world. It should run on data.
Water infrastructure is the cornerstone of modern society. Yet the utilities responsible for it operate with fragmented data, ageing systems, and insufficient insight. Decisions that should take minutes take months. Investments that should be targeted are made on instinct.
InfoTiles was founded in Stavanger in 2016 with a single, clear ambition: to be the source of truth for water. We build AI-powered analytics that turn raw operational data into trusted decisions, for every utility, at every scale, across every geography.
"InfoTiles has given us a completely new picture of our network. We now make decisions in hours that used to take weeks."
Erlend Berg, Enterprise Architect, Lillestrøm MunicipalityThe global water sector is under-digitised, under-resourced, and under pressure.
Water systems remain fragmented and reactive because the foundational asset data underpinning every decision, the network GIS, is incorrect. Every AI initiative, digital twin, and analytics deployment inherits this broken foundation. InfoTiles solves the root cause rather than layering more tools on top of it.
Utilities operate across dozens of disconnected data sources: SCADA, GIS, billing, maintenance logs, meter reads. No single system provides a coherent operational picture.
Without a unified data layer, engineers spend weeks compiling reports that should take hours. Investment decisions are delayed. Risk goes unquantified.
Without predictive insight, utilities respond to failures rather than preventing them, at enormous cost to infrastructure, environment and communities.
Stricter EU and UK regulation on water quality, leakage and carbon is accelerating the need for digital operational intelligence across all utility sizes.
A unified intelligence layer across water and wastewater networks.
InfoTiles has built its competitive moat in two deliberate stages. The first was graph neural networks: PipeFusion, a proprietary Graph Neural Network (GNN) engine that models the complete physical and hydraulic behaviour of a water network without requiring a pre-built hydraulic model. It ingests Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) telemetry, Geographic Information System (GIS) data, meter reads, rainfall and river gauge data, and produces a live, machine-readable model of every pipe, pump and zone in the network.
The second stage is large language models. Above PipeFusion sits the Delta AI assistant, a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) decision support layer that lets engineers query their network in natural language and receive responses grounded in live operational data. Each stage compounds the moat: the GNN generates proprietary network intelligence no competitor can replicate from outside, and the language model layer makes that intelligence accessible to every operator, not just data scientists.
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architecture over PipeFusion and live Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) telemetry. Engineers query their network in natural language and receive responses grounded in live operational data. Live in Lillestrøm (launched June 2026); Ålesund and Drammen onboarding. Azure AI Foundry Large Language Model (LLM) backend with ~98.5% token cache hit rate.
GNN-based network modelling. Deployable from emailed GIS files, no hydraulic model required. Cleans asset data, identifies topology errors, and produces a live graph of the network with flow estimates and risk scores. Fixes more than 100,000 errors across deployments and feeds corrections back to the master GIS rather than creating a parallel copy. Reduces sales-to-deployment lead time by 70%.
Real-time operational dashboards integrating SCADA, sensor and telemetry data. Pressure management, burst detection, zone monitoring and performance benchmarking in a single operator interface.
Quantifies Inflow and Infiltration by volume, operational cost and CO₂ footprint. Prioritises rehabilitation investment using AI-derived risk scoring. Deployed with Arup at Severn Trent Water across the Gloucester catchment.
End-to-end analytics for Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) meter devices across venders and network technology such as LoRaWAN and NB-IoT. Leakage detection, consumption anomaly alerts, district meter area management and billing integration. Deployed across 60,000 meters in Trondheim.
The moat has been built in two layers. First, every new deployment adds Graph Neural Network (GNN) training data that improves network model accuracy across the entire graph, data that competitors cannot access. Second, the Delta Large Language Model (LLM) layer learns from operational queries and outcomes across the full customer base. Both layers compound with scale, making the platform structurally more defensible with every utility added.
We are building the most trusted decision tool for water and wastewater. We have already started.
The proof is already in production. A single Lillestrøm deployment identified EUR 2 million in annual savings. A major UK catchment was modelled in 16 weeks, eliminating the need for costly storage infrastructure. Sales-to-deployment lead times have been cut by 70%. These are not pilot results. They are live operational outcomes from utilities that depend on the platform every day.
The water sector is full of vendors who promise transformation and deliver dashboards. InfoTiles is different because the platform is grounded in the actual physics of the network. PipeFusion deploys from emailed GIS files, requires no pre-built hydraulic model, and embeds directly into daily operations from week one. The Delta AI assistant allows engineers to query their entire network in natural language against live operational data. The manual equivalent takes days across disconnected systems. This is a different category of capability.
The structural advantage compounds with every deployment. Each new utility adds operational data that improves model accuracy across the entire platform. No competitor can access this data from the outside, and no new entrant can replicate years of network intelligence from a standing start. The platform becomes harder to displace the longer it runs.
Traditional vendors lack modern AI capabilities. Generic AI players lack domain understanding. InfoTiles sits at the intersection of both, with a decade of water network data, a team that understands the physics, and a platform already running in production across seven countries on networks from 20 km to 6,000 km.

SewerIntelligence deployed to quantify and locate Inflow and Infiltration across Håbo's wastewater network. Analysis identified that 18% of all wastewater treated is attributable to I&I, equivalent to SEK 13 million (approx. EUR 1.3 million) in excess operating costs annually, or roughly EUR 61 per inhabitant. The platform pinpointed the specific pumping zones receiving the largest net volumes, directing the maintenance team to excavate in exactly those locations. Physical inspection confirmed significant pipe breaches, including drained surface water from nearby farmland penetrating the wastewater system at high pressure. Håbo acted on the analysis, dug, found the damage, and made the repairs.
From pilot to platform, commercial momentum is building.
The platform has moved from technical validation to commercial scale. Pilots have converted to long-term Software as a Service (SaaS) contracts. The sales cycle has been restructured by PipeFusion: overall lead time from prospect to offer has been reduced by approximately 70%, and the proportion of qualified prospects converting to ARR has increased materially.

Three reinforcing growth mechanisms.
InfoTiles grows through three reinforcing mechanisms. First, organic SaaS growth, 40 to 50% per year, driven by a partner-led go-to-market with Microsoft (Azure Marketplace), Arup (joint bids in UK and Middle East), Axflow (MeterOps co-sell in Norway) and Aveco de Bondt (Benelux). Second, a buy-and-build strategy targeting 3 to 6 acquisitions over 24 to 48 months. Third, cross-sell uplift of 15 to 25% on acquired revenue bases within 12 to 18 months of integration.
The go-to-market model begins with PipeFusion as the lowest-friction entry point, deployable on emailed files without live IT connections, enabling trust to be established before full integration. Upsell into WaterIntelligence, MeterOps, SewerIntelligence and Δ Delta follows as relationships deepen.
Public-sector procurement moves slowly. Mitigated by PipeFusion's fast-start model and growing framework contract alignment.
Buy-and-build execution requires disciplined 100-day transitions per acquisition. Mitigated by a defined integration playbook developed prior to each close.
Established vendors (Bentley, DHI, Xylem) hold market share. Mitigated by speed of deployment, AI-native architecture and domain specificity.
Utility data is sensitive. Mitigated by on-premise and private cloud deployment options, and compliance with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and sector-specific regulation.
Measurable outcomes for utilities and communities.
InfoTiles is not a reporting tool. It is an operational decision layer that utilities rely on every day. Customer outcomes are quantified and contractible: Lillestrøm identified EUR 2 million in annual savings and over 1 million m³ in ingress mitigation. Sales lead times have been reduced by 70%. At Severn Trent Water, Arup and InfoTiles modelled I&I across a major catchment in just 16 weeks, eliminating the need for costly storage infrastructure. Deployment requires no new hardware and no rip-and-replace of existing SCADA or GIS systems, and the platform architecture supports expansion into adjacent verticals using the same data backbone.
Strategic partners accelerate reach and credibility.
InfoTiles scales through trusted partnerships that extend market access, strengthen delivery capability, and validate our technology with some of the most respected organisations in the industry. Together, these partners accelerate customer acquisition, unlock new geographies, and help bring AI-powered water intelligence to utilities at scale.

A EUR 54 billion market digitising under regulatory pressure, climate stress, and a decade of deferred investment.
Water and wastewater utilities globally manage infrastructure valued in the trillions. They are under simultaneous pressure from three directions: regulatory enforcement of water quality and leakage targets, infrastructure backlogs from decades of underinvestment, and the physical consequences of climate variability on ageing pipe networks. Digital intelligence is no longer optional. It is the mechanism through which utilities comply, report, and plan at the speed regulators now demand.
The global digital water market by 2033, growing from EUR 27 billion in 2023 at approximately 9% CAGR. Includes operational analytics, network modelling, smart metering, AI decision support, and infrastructure planning tools for water and wastewater utilities worldwide. Driven by regulatory enforcement (EU Water Framework Directive, Ofwat AMP8, USEPA lead pipe rules) and public infrastructure investment programmes.

Utilities in InfoTiles' current and near-term geographies: Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland and UK. Estimated 4,200 medium-to-large utilities with network lengths above 200 km, the minimum viable scale for PipeFusion deployment, at an average contract value of EUR 75,000 to EUR 150,000 per utility per year across the full product suite.
InfoTiles' realistically capturable share within current active geographies over a five-year horizon, assuming 10 to 15% penetration among addressable utilities. Derived from identified utility counts, average deal sizes across existing contracts, and the acceleration effect of buy-and-build acquisitions that add existing customer bases directly to the platform.

Raising EUR 1 to 3M to accelerate the AI-native water platform and execute the first acquisition.
InfoTiles is raising EUR 1 to 3 million in a growth round structured as equity. The capital funds the 18-month sprint from proven platform to scaled international presence and first buy-and-build acquisition close.
The raise follows a founder-led buyback of the Lyse Vekst AS stake, which has simplified the cap table and aligned all shareholders behind a single growth strategy.
The primary use of capital is international commercial expansion. The majority of the round goes directly toward activating the UK and Benelux markets, where the Arup co-sell agreement and the Aveco de Bondt partnership give InfoTiles a structurally lower-cost entry than building from scratch. The balance funds acquisition readiness and the operational infrastructure required to execute the buy-and-build strategy at pace.
By end of 2027, this capital takes InfoTiles from NOK 6M ARR to a NOK 20M ARR run rate, with active utility contracts in Norway, the UK and the Netherlands, the Delta AI assistant deployed across multiple customers generating documented outcomes, and the first acquisition either closed or in final execution.
That is the threshold from which the buy-and-build phase becomes self-reinforcing: recurring revenue supports deal execution, acquired customer bases accelerate platform adoption, and the world graph compounds with every deployment added.
The UK and Benelux markets are open and partner-ready. This round puts dedicated commercial capability in market, converts the Arup and Aveco de Bondt partnerships into active pipeline, and targets three new utility contracts outside Norway by Q2 2027.
The buy-and-build strategy is board-approved and the target pipeline is identified. This round funds the legal, financial and integration capability required to close the first acquisition and begin compounding the platform across an expanded customer base.
Delta AI assistant rollout across Norway, UK and Netherlands. PipeFusion and MeterOps scaled to new utility deployments. Each new deployment adds to the world graph and strengthens the structural moat for every customer already on the platform.
"The speed at which InfoTiles modelled our catchment was genuinely impressive. What would have taken months was done in weeks, and the outputs were immediately usable."
