Troubleshooter
Diagnose Problems & Explore Solutions for your Utilities.
Photo Diagnosis
Snap a photo of a leak, scaled exchanger or gauge panel. The AI inspects it and ranks likely causes with safe checks.
JPEG, PNG or WebP · Up to 12 MB
Video Fault Finder
Record a 10–20 second clip of a noisy compressor, vibrating pump or hissing line. The AI watches and listens, then ranks likely causes with safe checks.
MP4, WebM or MOV · Up to 30 MB, including recordings
Sonic Signature Analyzer
Acoustic screening for steam traps and valves.
Microphone audio is processed on your device, not uploaded or stored.
Safety & Measurement Limits
A phone microphone cannot confirm trap failure, normal cycling or live steam loss. Background noise, distance and microphone gain affect this uncalibrated reading. Record from a safe position without touching hot equipment or opening pressurized fittings. Before executing any critical decision, discuss with your plant team; qualified staff must follow the OEM manual.
