Motmot develops inspection and asset management solutions for water utilities and infrastructure teams. Its technology provides visibility into the condition of water mains and other water assets, helping organizations understand what is happening inside systems without relying solely on costly, disruptive excavation. Motmot deploys robotic inspection tools within active water mains to capture detailed internal data and provide an objective view of asset condition.

This inspection information can reveal unseen concerns, impacts on flow, and emerging risks. The company also turns its findings into condition assessment reports and practical guidance, supporting repair prioritization, capital planning, and confident infrastructure decisions. Motmot’s approach is designed to help the people responsible for water systems maintain reliable service and address the challenges posed by aging infrastructure.

The company works with utilities and infrastructure partners, and its technology has received support from organizations including AquaAction and MI-AWWA. Based in Detroit, Motmot also shares updates on water infrastructure innovation and provides case studies about its work
