Water quality monitoring is stuck in the 20th century—manual sampling, delayed results, and reactive fixes. KETOS isn't just digitizing this process; it's building a nervous system for the world's water infrastructure, transforming a $6.4M revenue company into a predictive force for agricultural, industrial, and municipal operations.

"They're not selling sensors—they're selling foresight. In a world of water scarcity, KETOS turns data into compliance before the crisis hits."

The tech stack tells a story of pragmatic engineering: jQuery and Bootstrap for rapid deployment, Swiper for mobile-first dashboards, and Lazy Loading for bandwidth-constrained industrial sites. It's not the flashest stack, but it's battle-tested for reliability in environments where a 10-second delay can mean a regulatory violation. The absence of heavy frameworks suggests a team optimizing for maintenance, not just features.

• Founder-led execution: Meena Sankaran (ex-Microsoft) brings enterprise software discipline to a hardware-heavy space
• Vertical depth before horizontal breadth: Dominating 'tailings pond' monitoring before expanding into broader municipal water
• Capital efficiency: $48M raised but only $6.4M revenue—showing disciplined burn in a capital-intensive sector
• Predictive, not reactive: The 'Predictive@' email domain hints at their core value prop—anticipating failures, not just reporting them
