FoloLabs — Open data platform for the water treatment industry

What we believe

Three principles the platform is built on.

Open beats closed.

Treatment plants shouldn't be locked into one vendor's data stack. The platform is open by default — to operators, to engineers, to third-party builders.

Networks beat silos.

Every plant is more useful when its data lives next to its peers'. Benchmarks, equipment baselines, operational patterns — they only show up at the network level.

Practitioners, not tourists.

Built by and for people who have spent time in control rooms and on treatment trains — not platform tourists. Operator language. Operator workflows.

What we build

A platform and a family of operator products. Open to third-party developers.

Every product sits on the same shared data layer. Each one makes the others stronger — and operators stay in control of what they share, with whom, and on what terms.

PlatformAggregates operational data from treatment plants — flows, energy, chemistry, equipment health — and opens it through documented APIs.
SenseSensor-based equipment monitoring for treatment-plant operators. Low-friction, plant-installable, individually useful from day one.
HubMarketplace for engineering project solutions — vendors, consultants, equipment makers — with impact estimates grounded in real plant data.
IndexBenchmark of operating and capital expenditure across the network. Anonymized peer comparison for operators who want to see where they stand.

Open by design

A shared data layer for the water-treatment industry.

Closed platforms can't compound. Open ones can. Every new plant adds data. Every new partner adds a product. Every new product makes the platform more useful for everyone already on it — operators, regulators, vendors, developers.

For operators.

Plug in your data. Get insights, benchmarks, and tools you don't have to build from scratch. Keep ownership and control.

For builders.

Documented APIs and a path to deploy applications across operators we serve. Skip the per-plant integration grind.

For regulators.

See the network in motion. Compliance generated from operational reality, not paperwork.

Who we serve

Practitioners across the water-treatment network.

OperatorsMunicipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants — main and supporting facilities across the Kingdom and the broader Gulf.
Engineering firmsDesign consultants, EPC contractors, retrofit and optimisation partners working on the next generation of plants.
RegulatorsEnvironmental authorities and ministry counterparts shaping water-sector policy and reporting.
VendorsEquipment manufacturers and service providers who want to build on the platform instead of around it.

Get in touch

We're early. We'd rather talk to ten right people than ship to a hundred wrong ones.

If you operate a plantWe want to learn from you. A short call beats any pitch deck.
If you build for waterWe want to integrate. Bring your APIs, your sensors, your modeling stack.
If you invest in MENA infrastructureWe're preparing investor materials. Reach out and we'll share them when they're ready.
Press, partnerships, acceleratorsSame email. Short note, fast reply.
