OUR STORY

Artificial intelligence serving municipalities

The story of CANN Forecast began in 2016, when its founding team won the AquaHacking Challenge.

A year later, the City of Montreal approached CANN Forecast to develop a predictive model for pipe breaks: InteliPipes. Since then, the company has been working with several municipalities in Canada and France to anticipate water and sewer pipe failures.

Today, CANN Forecast continues to innovate by developing new artificial intelligence models to help municipalities manage their infrastructure more sustainably and efficiently.
