About AquaShield
Summary
AquaShield detects water leaks in commercial buildings before they cause structural damage, serving real estate portfolio owners who manage the financial risk of large-scale water loss. Non-invasive sensors attach to existing pipes without cutting or retrofitting, and an AI layer learns normal flow patterns to flag anomalies in real time, replacing reactive damage control with continuous, automated monitoring.
Business model
A fraction of the cost of one major claim per building protected, per portfolio
Go-to-market
Real estate portfolio owners and operators are the buyers; they start through a direct sales motion, booking a demo call with the AquaShield team.
