What do they do?

Smart Flow position themselves as providing water as a service: real-time monitoring backed by people as well as technology. Their meters and sensors track consumption around the clock, AI flags leaks, faulty appliances and excessive use, and a monitoring team can trigger emergency shut-off.

• What it does: 24/7 water usage monitoring, leak detection and emergency shut-off.
• Data and reporting: Water usage analytics and ESG data tracking.
• Proof point: Clients have included Starbucks, and contractor Sisk has adopted it across its UK, Irish and European sites.

Smart Flow suits owners and operators who pay for water directly and want to cut both bills and the insurance risk of water damage.
