This is how we get our drinking water. 😬 These clips were captured by robots built by Solinas Integrity Pvt. Ltd. These robots go inside water lines to spot leakages, contamination, and other issues, which is impossible to do humanly. We recently partnered with them through Rainmatter.

Exciting Milestone! 🎉 Five years ago, in the lab at Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, we started working on a mission to address India's pressing water and sanitation challenges. Today, we are thrilled to announce a major milestone as we transition into a Series A startup. We are honoured to welcome Neev Fund, managed by SBICAP Ventures Limited, leading our funding round, with Rainmatter Capital, led by Nithin Kamath, Founder of Zerodha, also joining us. Their confidence in our vision underscores the significant impact we can achieve together. Our innovations aim to reduce water wastage and sewer overflows while mechanizing the manual cleaning of manholes and sewers with robots and AI. This investment will play an important role in scaling our efforts, allowing us to support more cities in efficiently managing their pipelines, manholes, and other water and sanitation assets. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our esteemed investors and partners, including UK government representatives, Dr Tamaswati Ghosh, CEO of IITM Incubation Cell, and Suken Shah, CFA, Neev Fund, SBICAP Ventures Limited, Nandakumar E, CEO, ICCW, our existing investors 8X Ventures, Veltis Capital, Weizmann group and fellow Solinites for their unwavering support and encouragement. Together, we are committed to making a profound social impact by conserving water and mitigating sewer overflows and flooding across India and globally. Thank you for believing in our vision and joining us on this transformative journey.
