Water intelligence · Built for a greener future

Every drop has a story. Make yours count.

SuvAI is developing smarter water monitoring to help buildings and small businesses spot unusual consumption and take action before water goes to waste.

Meet the device

A small unit on the pipe that watches every litre.

The SuvAI unit screws inline onto a building's water pipe. A flow sensor counts the water passing through, and an ESP32 inside sends readings to the SuvAI dashboard over Wi-Fi.

The enclosure shown is a concept render. Our working prototype uses the same sensor and ESP32 on a test bench.

The problem

Water is precious. Waste is often invisible.

A leaking pipe, an overflowing cistern or a tap left running rarely makes a sound anyone notices. Without measurement, the first sign is often a higher bill or water damage.

Hidden or unnoticed leaks

Small leaks behind walls or inside fittings can run for days before anyone sees them.

Water left running

A tap, hose or cistern left on by mistake keeps flowing until someone walks past.

Unusual use goes undetected

Most buildings see consumption once a month on a bill, with no way to tell when it changed.

How it works

From water flow to useful insight.

The planned system architecture, from the pipe to your phone.

  1. 01

    Measure

    A flow sensor in the pipe spins a small turbine and sends one pulse per turn.

    ≈ 450 pulses per litre
  2. 02

    Connect

    The ESP32 counts pulses, converts them to litres and sends a reading over Wi-Fi.

    one reading every 2 s
  3. 03

    Analyse

    Software checks how much water each session uses and how long flow continues without a pause.

    volume + duration rules
  4. 04

    Notify

    People get a Telegram alert and can review flow history on the web dashboard.

Environmental impact

Protect water before it goes to waste.

Every litre that leaks unnoticed is water nobody used. SuvAI aims to make that waste visible early, so people can stop it.

Help people notice potential water waste earlier.

Encourage more informed decisions about water use.

Support responsible consumption in buildings and small businesses.

Explore how monitoring can reduce unnecessary water use.

We will report savings only after we have measured them at real pilot sites.

Who we are building for

Places where water use is high and easy to lose track of.

Small hotels and guesthouses

Many bathrooms, showers and laundry loads, with guests coming and going at all hours.

Many fixturesConstant turnover

Restaurants and cafés

Kitchens, dishwashing and cleaning use water all day, and a leak can blend into normal activity.

Heavy daily useTight margins

Other small facilities

Laundries, car washes and similar businesses where water is measurable and matters to the bottom line.

Measurable useClear incentive

These are customer groups we are evaluating, not existing clients. We aim to make monitoring accessible through low-cost hardware, plain-language alerts and simple installation.

Our journey and vision

From a simple idea to smarter water management.

  1. 01In progress

    Hardware prototype

    Build and validate the first sensor-based monitoring system.

  2. 02Next

    Monitoring platform

    Develop data collection, the dashboard and notifications.

  3. 03Planned

    Controlled testing

    Calibrate the sensor and test how reliably unusual flow is detected.

  4. 04Planned

    Pilot deployments

    Test at selected businesses in Tashkent and gather real feedback.

  5. 05Vision

    Smarter detection

    Learn each building's normal pattern and expand to more sites.

FAQ

Questions people ask us.

Can't find your answer? Write to us and we'll reply within a day.

Does SuvAI need the internet?

Yes. The device needs a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi connection to send readings to the dashboard and alerts to Telegram.

Will it fit our pipes?

The concept unit is designed for standard ½-inch pipe fittings. Other pipe sizes would need an adapter, which we will check during pilot installations.

Do we need to install an app?

No. Alerts arrive in Telegram, which most people in Uzbekistan already use, and the dashboard opens in any web browser.

Will it raise false alarms when we use a lot of water?

Limits are set for each building: how much water one session may use and how long water may flow without a pause. A hotel at check-out time gets different limits from an office at night.

How much will it cost?

We are still working this out. Our goal is an affordable unit built from widely available parts, and we will confirm pricing after pilot testing.
