Underlying model
GDPR check for water management no language model named; proprietary AI on pressure and flow data with a hydraulic model. Data stays in the customer's region, customer data is not used for training. ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (Kiwa) and NIS2 certification mark SC30. Dutch company (EU). Many tools build on a large model from, for example, OpenAI or Anthropic. If in doubt, ask for the data processing agreement: it states where your data goes.
Questions about HULO
- Which AI model does HULO use?
- The maker of HULO does not disclose which AI model sits underneath. No language model named; proprietary AI on pressure and flow data with a hydraulic model. Data stays in the customer's region, customer data is not used for training. ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (Kiwa) and NIS2 certification mark SC30. Dutch company (EU).
- How much does HULO cost?
- Essential €29,000/year (500 km net); Professional and Enterprise on request. Check the current price on the provider's website; rates change often.
- Who is HULO for?
- HULO is aimed at water management. It fits work such as leak detection and water loss: spotting anomalies in pressure, flow and sound in the pipe network, forecasting rainfall, water levels, drought and the flow to pumping stations and treatment plants, assets and treatment: predicting pump faults and adjusting processes with AI settings.
- What should I look out for with AI in water management?
- Water management is critical infrastructure: water boards and drinking water companies fall under the NIS2 rules (in the Netherlands, the Cyber Security Act), and an AI system that runs as a safety component in water management may count as high risk under the AI Act. So ask about certification, data storage and who keeps control during an outage. HULO is ISO 27001 certified, holds the SC30 NIS2 mark, stores data in the client's region and does not train on client data. TaKaDu (Spain) is ISO 27001 certified. KISTERS WISKI can run on-premise. With many other providers, such as Qatium, Siemens and FIDO Tech, the hosting location is not publicly stated: record it in the data processing agreement. Personal data mainly sits in consumption data from smart water meters; keep it separate from network data where possible.
