WD News: Gradiant has announced the establishment of its digital and AI technology business into a wholly owned independent subsidiary, named Turing.
Named after AI pioneer Alan Turing, this new entity aims to drive substantial cost savings and sustainability outcomes across the entire water value chain.
The launch of Turing underlines a market shift towards AI-driven solutions in the water industry and Gradiant’s commitment to accelerating this transition. Turing will concentrate on utilizing its AI-powered platform (which includes SmartOps for treatment plants and HydroEye for distribution networks) to deliver transformative value and improved operational efficiency for clients.
Turing’s platform has already achieved significant adoption by customers which include Fortune 100 companies and large public utilities.
