“Switching to VODA.ai allowed us to do hundreds of inspections instead of hundreds of thousands. It was a huge lift off the burden.”
Powered by AI
VODA.ai helps water professionals turn predictive pipe & meter risk into defensible decisions to prevent failures, prioritize capital, and protect revenue.
FAILURE PREVENTION
Predict where failures are most likely so you can target leak detection, condition assessment, and crews in the areas with the highest risk. Act earlier, cut emergency repairs and reduce non-revenue water.
“VODA.ai predicted breaks that occurred on a pipeline that had never had a break before.”
Dave Brown
Director of Maintenance
Eastern Municipal Water District
Risk-Driven Planning
Focus replacement and rehabilitation dollars on the highest-risk mains, not the pipes that can safely wait. Reduce unnecessary digs, avoid premature replacement, and redirect capital to higher-risk work.
“We’re using VODA.ai to avoid unnecessary assessments.”

REVENUE PROTECTION
Reduce real losses by finding leaks and breaks earlier. Identify underperforming meters driving apparent losses. Protect revenue and lower non-revenue water by focusing action where the financial impact is highest.

“Switching to VODA.ai allowed us to do hundreds of inspections instead of hundreds of thousands. It was a huge lift off the burden.”
Las Vegas Valley Water District
Rebecca Slabaugh
“VODA.ai goes beyond failure prediction. It helps identify lead service lines and plan LCRI replacements more cost-effectively.”
Arcadis, Indianapolis
Zella West
“VODA.ai shows patterns across our mains and flags which pipes are most likely to fail next. It helps us decide what to replace, and what to leave.”
Nob Hill Water Association

FAQ
VODA.ai is decision support software for water utilities. It helps water professionals make better decisions about buried assets they cannot see, including which pipes to replace, assess, monitor, or investigate next. The platform uses AI, utility data, and risk modeling to make hidden infrastructure risk visible and support defensible planning decisions.
VODA.ai uses AI and machine learning to analyze utility data and identify pipes that are more likely to fail in the future. It helps utilities move beyond pipe age, material, break history, spreadsheets, and institutional knowledge by showing system-wide risk, including pipes with no prior breaks but elevated likelihood of failure.
VODA.ai typically starts with the data a utility already has, such as GIS data, pipe attributes, historical break records, work orders, asset data, service line information, and other operational inputs. Utilities do not need perfect data to begin; VODA.ai helps prepare and improve available data over time.
VODA.ai implementation depends on the utility’s system size, data quality, available inputs, and project scope. A typical process includes gathering data, preparing and validating inputs, building or refreshing the model, reviewing results, and helping the utility apply the outputs to planning and operations.
VODA.ai works with utility asset, GIS, and operational data to support better infrastructure decisions. The platform supports GIS-based workflows and helps connect pipe data, break history, risk scores, planning logic, and project prioritization. Utilities should contact VODA.ai to confirm compatibility with specific GIS, CMMS, work order, or enterprise systems.
Yes. VODA.ai can support lead service line programs by helping utilities manage service line data, identify likely lead service lines, prioritize field verification, and plan replacement activity. For LCRI-related work, VODA.ai supports compliance workflows but should not be treated as a substitute for legal or regulatory guidance.
VODA.ai pricing is customized based on each utility’s system, data, selected solutions, and project scope. Pricing may vary depending on goals such as break prediction, capital planning, lead service line management, leak detection, condition assessment, or project prioritization.
Utilities should retain ownership of their utility data. VODA.ai uses customer data to generate risk models, pipe-level insights, planning outputs, maps, reports, and decision-support recommendations. Exact terms for data ownership, retention, permitted use, and security should be reviewed in VODA.ai’s contract and security documentation.
VODA.ai serves water utilities and organizations responsible for water infrastructure. The platform can support utilities that need better ways to prioritize pipe replacement, evaluate risk, plan capital investments, manage lead service line work, coordinate projects, or improve day-to-day asset decisions.
VODA.ai takes utility data security seriously and provides security documentation as part of the evaluation process. Utilities can contact VODA.ai for current information about ISO, SOC 2, hosting, access controls, and data protection practices. Only certifications that are currently verified should be listed on the homepage.
