About Talos
Summary
Talos builds predictive maintenance hardware and software for large power transformers, assets that cost millions to replace and take years to source. Magnetic, non-invasive sensor devices attach to existing equipment in seconds, continuously capturing vibration, temperature, electromagnetic, and humidity signals, then running anomaly-detection models against each machine's learned baseline. When a fault surfaces, Talos delivers a root-cause analysis and specific remediation steps, replacing the reactive inspection routines that let problems compound until failure.
Go-to-market
Utility operators and grid infrastructure teams are the buyers; field crews deploy the hardware without specialist installers, lowering the barrier to initial adoption.
From the Y Combinator listing
Predictive maintenance for power infrastructure.
At Talos, we are building better, more modern predictive maintenance for the power industry with a focus on large transformers. Our devices continuously monitor critical power equipment and detect problems early on using anomaly-detection models. For each fault, we provide detailed analyses of the problem, exactly where and why it happened, as well as next steps teams should take.
