Practical Implementation - We convert research-grade AI techniques into production-ready tools that organizations can actually use and maintain.
Evidence-Based AI - We measure real impact through rigorous evaluation frameworks tailored to humanitarian and development contexts.
We work with organizations across the WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) sector, including partnerships with:
- Action Contre la Faim (ACF)
- The Center for Affordable Water & Sanitation Technology (CAWST)
