Digitizing the world's most critical asset.

Standard Water Corp turns water into operational data. Hardware in the field. Models on the cloud. Software in the control room.

01Why Now

Water is now the limiting input on two fronts: AI data centers, and small towns that fail water tests.

02Thesis
The bet we are making

Two ways to make more water.

Water is the topic now. AI data centers, dry cities, failing utilities. Two levers exist: generate new supply, or recover what we already discharge. The first gets the attention. The second is where the spotlight has not been. The exit stream is the input stream. Score it, clean it, route it back into a closed loop.

03The Platform

Sensors that capture. Models that score. Software that acts. One platform under everything below.

[01]

Hardware & Sensors

Sensing networks and M2M connectivity. Continuous water-quality telemetry down to 0.01 ppm. The physical layer that listens to the water.

[02]

Software & Intelligence

Risk models, not dashboards. We clean and link public and sensor data, then score it. This is the engine WaterMark and Bedrock are built on.

[03]

Integrated Delivery

Deployment across borders. Sensor installs, SCADA integration, and field training, from a single pilot to a national program.

04Current Initiatives & Projects
/01 · Data Centers
WaterMark

Independent water and siting-risk assessment for data center projects.

ForDevelopers and regulators OutputCommitment sheet for siting
/02 · Drinking Water & Wastewater
Bedrock

EPA water-data intelligence for the systems no one is watching.

ForOperators, investors, agencies OutputRanked list of failing systems
/03 · Chemical Infrastructure
Autonomous Chlorine

On-site chlorine generation. Secures municipal and commercial water without trucked-in chemicals.

ForMunicipal and commercial systems OutputDecentralized generation

Generates sodium hypochlorite on demand from salt brine and a low-current power feed. Replaces truck-delivered hypochlorite and chlorine-gas cylinders.

The disinfectant is made where it is used, so utilities never run out and the supply chain stays local. SWC's first product line, in market.

/04 · Sensing
Continuous Sensing

Water-chemistry sensor networks for large operators. Built on patented sensing technology from university research.

ForLarge operators OutputContinuous telemetry

Multi-parameter water-chemistry sensor networks for large operators. The patented sensing chemistry is licensed from university research and integrated into the SWC platform.

Continuous telemetry on flow, conductivity, pH, ammonia, dissolved oxygen, and ORP, where operators would otherwise be running grab samples to the lab daily.

/05 · Certification
NSF & Regulatory

We get water devices through certification: test strategy, NSF Standard 50, submission.

ForDevice manufacturers OutputCertification path

Standard Water guides water-touching hardware through certification. Test plan, NSF Standard 50 submission, lab coordination, regulatory navigation.

Outside expertise for startups and OEMs that need their device cleared before it can sell in the US.

/06 · Detection
Microplastic & PFAS Detection

Continuous field detection of microplastics and PFAS, aligned to EU monitoring rules.

ForEU compliance, utilities OutputField-deployable sensor

Continuous field detection of microplastics and PFAS, the parameters most utilities cannot yet measure on-site.

Aligned to the EU Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive recast (Article 21) monitoring obligations. Sensor research underway with university labs and analytical chemistry groups.

/07 · Software Deployment
Multi-Tenant SCADA

SCADA platform deployed to water utilities. One dashboard, every site.

ForWater utilities OutputUnified operations dashboard

The software platform SWC is building through the Western Balkans deployment. One dashboard, every site, every utility.

Real-time alerting, regulatory reporting, cross-plant benchmarking, open API for ministry-level access. The control layer above the sensors.

/08 · Operations AI
Air-Gap AI

Self-hosted AI for utility operations. Sensor analytics, anomaly detection, and natural-language query without plant data leaving the network.

ForUtility OT teams and security officers OutputOn-premise inference, zero cloud dependency

Open-weight language models deployed inside a utility's OT network. Anomaly detection on continuous sensor streams, plain-English query of historian data, summary generation for incident reports. No utility operations data leaves the plant for inference.

Targets utilities with NIS2, EPA AWIA, or sector-specific compliance obligations that prohibit commercial AI services. Built on Llama-family weights with plant-side fine-tuning on local equipment vocabulary and operating procedures. Research underway.

05Call For Projects

We are recruiting utilities.

An open call for water and wastewater utilities. Selected partners get sensing, integration, and partnership at no cost. The Western Balkans program is live now.
