In the U.S., over 40,000 small and medium water systems face mounting challenges from aging infrastructure, staffing shortages, water quality degradation, and increased regulatory pressure. Many of these systems lack the tools to detect issues early, retain institutional knowledge, or ensure consistent compliance.
Delta Bravo Artificial Intelligence, Inc. received a Phase II Award from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) Convergence Accelerator, Directorate for Technology, Innovation and Partnerships (TIP) to develop Aquaspec, empowering small and medium water systems to operate like the big ones- without the cost or complexity- by giving them smarter tools, clearer guidance, and faster insight.
Aquaspec doesn’t just react- it sees what’s coming. Aquaspec’s predictions are backed by 14 years of data, peer-reviewed models, and constant feedback from real water operators in the field. What would your system look like with over 90% accuracy predicting demand, treatment methods and compliance risk- with direct, plainly written recommendations for what to do, how to do it and when, built specifically for you?
Aquaspec doesn’t require ripping out your system. It works with what you have- whether that’s SCADA, spreadsheets, or hand-written logs. You get value on Day One, no overhaul required.
Aquaspec includes a custom-built Large Language Model (LLM) Assistant trained on your system's own SOPs, manuals, and historical reports. Learning the ropes in a system used to take years. Now operators can ask real-time questions- "How do I clean this filter?" or "What’s the correct polymer dose?"- and get immediate, accurate answers. Whether you’re a solo operator in a rural system or managing a regional plant, Aquaspec helps you run a tighter ship with fewer surprises. Better visibility. Fewer after-hours emergencies. And more time for the things that matter.
Every shift has critical compliance tasks. Aquaspec turns those into an interactive checklist that tracks completion in real time and alerts leadership if something gets missed. No more wondering what fell through the cracks.
Water quality is impacted by unpredictable variables like weather, raw water chemistry, equipment performance, and human error. With optimized treatment recommendations, Aquaspec optimizes chemical use and energy loads, reducing your footprint while improving output.
Experienced operators know their system. Aquaspec amplifies that instinct with AI-powered recommendations built from years of system data, weather patterns, equipment telemetry, and best practices.
When tools work with you, not against you, everything gets better. Operators get ahead and feel more in control of the shift, making work smoother, smarter, and a little less stressful.
