Do the round.
Keep the record.

Keepwell turns the rounds your operators already run into the compliance record, the crew’s know-how, and a map of every asset on the route. Captured hands-free through the safety glasses they already wear.

The problem
For a small water system, running the plant is only half the job. The other half is proving you did it. The samples, the logs, the sanitary survey.

Today that record gets pieced together from memory at the end of a long day. A missed sample or a lost log becomes a violation, even when the water was perfect.

Monitoring & reporting is the No. 1 violation in the country.
About 1 in 5 water systems missed a monitoring or reporting requirement last year, and systems serving under 3,300 people carry most of it.

Keepwell turns the work itself into the record, so nothing gets missed and nothing gets lost.

How it works

Wear it. It captures. The record writes itself.

No tablets, no forms, no writing it up after. The record is done when the round is.

STEP 01

Wear the glasses

The operator clips on the safety glasses and works the job like always. Hands stay on the equipment.

STEP 02

Keepwell captures

AI records what they see, say, and do, and files it where it belongs: the sampling log, the asset’s history, the system map.

STEP 03

Kept, automatically

Every entry is timestamped and traces back to the moment it happened. Ready for the state, the next hire, and the GIS team.

The record

Every routine, captured the way it’s really run.

From the wet well to the water main. The regulated tasks a system runs on, documented as they happen.

AI-SIMULATED POV
Lift station

Wet-well inspection

The panel, the floats, the amp draw, logged and timestamped. The lift-station record a sanitary survey asks for.

AI-SIMULATED POV
Well house

Water-quality sampling

Free chlorine, pH, sample time, and chain of custody, captured as the sample is taken. The monitoring record, done right.

AI-SIMULATED POV
Booster station

Startup sequence

Crack the discharge, build the pressure, watch the VFD. Done right, so a power blip never becomes a main break.

AI-SIMULATED POV
Distribution

Valve exercising

Turn counts and GPS, logged to the asset. The distribution record you are required to keep, finally kept.

Crew knowledge

Walk it once with Frank.
Walk it right after he retires.

Your senior operator knows which pump runs warm and which float sticks. None of it is written down. Keepwell gets it out of his head and into a library the next hire can search, pinned to the asset it’s about.

30 to 50% of the water workforce can retire in the next 5 to 10 years.
EPA estimate. The know-how leaves with them unless someone keeps it.

Tied to the asset

The tip lives on Lift Station 4, where the next operator will be standing when they need it.

Ask it in the field

The new hire asks why pump 2 runs warm and hears the answer Frank gave on the round.

See what’s at risk

Coverage by operator and asset. Know who retires next and what you still haven’t captured.

Interviews

Sit down with Frank.
Go through the plans.

Some of it never comes up on a round. Where the old main runs, why the pressure zone got split, which valve is under the parking lot. Put the drawings on the table and let him talk. Keepwell asks the follow-ups and files every answer to the asset he’s pointing at.

It asks the next question

Frank says “we moved it in ’98.” Keepwell asks where it went and why.

Pinned to the sheet

Each answer lands on the asset on the drawing, with the minute of the interview it came from.

Picks up where you left off

Keepwell tracks what’s covered. The next session starts on the assets Frank hasn’t talked through yet.

The files

Every binder on the shelf.
Read and filed.

Logbooks, O&M manuals, as-builts, old work orders, the last sanitary survey. Scan them or drop in the PDFs. Keepwell reads every page and adds what it finds to the same library as Frank’s tips.

Pulled out and pinned

Pump swaps, setpoints, and repairs come out of the text and go to the asset they’re about.

Every answer shows its page

When the library answers a question, it cites the logbook page it came from.

Checks the files against Frank

Where the as-built says one thing and Frank said another, Keepwell flags it for someone to settle.

★ One library. The next hire asks a question and gets the answer, from Frank or the binder, with the moment or the page it came from.
Asset map

See it. Say it.
It’s on the map.

The tech walks past a hydrant with a cracked cap. They say “log it.” The location, photo, and condition land on your system map before they’re back in the truck.

Logged where it stands

GPS from the paired phone, a photo from the glasses, and the time. No coordinates typed in later.

Condition in their words

“Cap’s cracked, paint’s gone, still turns.” Filed as condition fair, with a follow-up.

Feeds your GIS

Every pin exports to the GIS and CMMS you already run. The inventory builds itself on the rounds.

The hardware

Safety glasses that capture the job.

Lightweight safety glasses that see what the operator sees and hear what they say, so capturing the job costs nothing extra.

Hands-free capture

No tablet, no clipboard. The work never stops to record it.

Traceable by default

Every entry is timestamped and linked to the asset. Defensible in a survey.

Safety-rated eyewear

ANSI Z87 protective lenses. The PPE your crew already has to wear.

Fits your stack

Reads from and writes to the CMMS and SCADA you already own.
