Autonomous Inspection & Asset Management for Water Infrastructure
关于我们
Aging water infrastructure is failing faster than cities can keep up. With over 240,000 water main breaks each year, communities are forced to react to failures instead of preventing them. The problem is a lack of visibility. Motmot provides data-driven asset management for underground water main. Our Autonomous Underwater Robot (AUR) inspects live, pressurized pipelines, mapping infrastructure, identifying defects, and collecting high-resolution data—without shutting down service. We’ve built an asset management platform that turns inspection data into a risk assessment profile, helping municipalities prioritize repairs and optimize budgets. Instead of selling hardware, we operate as a Hardware-as-a-Data-Service (HaaDS) platform, deploying our technology and delivering risk assessments at scale. Cities get the information they need without the complexity of owning or maintaining inspection equipment. Backed by municipal partners, research institutions, and industry leaders, Motmot is making the underground visible—so cities can move from reactive repairs to predictive planning. ??

Big thank you to The FutureList for featuring us in their latest Innovation Memo! To read the full memo, follow the link below ?? ?? ?? https://lnkd.in/dmsjk6pw
Transforming Water Infrastructure with Autonomous Robotics Aging drinking water systems are a growing crisis, with 45% of U.S. water mains exceeding their designed lifespan. The result? Rising maintenance costs, water loss, and emergency failures. In this Innovation Memo, we speak with Elliot Smith, PE, Co-Founder & CEO of motmot, a Water and GovTech startup leveraging Autonomous Underwater Robotics (AUR) to transform drinking water infrastructure management. ? Autonomous Inspections – AUR navigates live, pressurized pipelines without service disruptions, covering 10x the distance of traditional methods. ? Multi-Sensor Monitoring – Detects leaks, contamination, and structural weaknesses using AI-powered analytics. ? Cost Savings – Cuts inspection costs by up to 85%, helping cities allocate resources more efficiently. ? Municipal Partnerships – Eight paid pilot programs across 12 cities, validating its pay-per-mile model for real-world impact. "At Motmot, we’re making critical water infrastructure visible, giving cities the data they need to protect and sustain their drinking water systems before problems arise." – Elliot Smith, Co-Founder & CEO How is Motmot redefining water management?

Honored to be part of the Michigan Rise portfolio! ?? ?? And if you missed it, here is our recent story from WXYZ-TV Channel 7 Action News following the tragic water main break that surged through a Southwest Detroit neighborhood 2 weeks ago.
Michigan Rise portfolio company motmot is making waves in infrastructure innovation. Following the recent Detroit water main break, founder Elliot Smith highlights the importance of public awareness and proactive infrastructure management: "Our true mission is about public education. It’s about people realizing there’s a whole world underneath our feet that we truly just take for granted," Smith said. "Our systems are old. Our systems are really old. So, we need to make sure we’re taking care of our most critical assets." Watch the full ABC 7 Detroit story here: https://bit.ly/4bkwePE
