// Grid Intelligence

You never label.
It never stops learning.

Our inspection AI generates and verifies its own training data, so new asset classes go live in days at zero labeling cost to you. Fully air-gapped: the entire pipeline runs inside your own network, and our on-prem verifier outperforms a leading cloud model on grid inspection.

// How It Works

From raw imagery
to operational intelligence.

Three phases. Zero customer labeling. On-premises or in your own cloud environment.

01
// Phase 01 · Day 1–14

Asset Inventory

Upload imagery. Get a GIS-ready inventory: 9 classes, 81% mAP@0.50. No labeling work from your team, ever.

02
// Phase 02 · Days per new class

Auto Expansion

A brand-new asset class onboarded in days, with zero customer labeling. The system detects, verifies, and self-labels it at 87–90% precision. No labeling work from you, and none of the months-long labeling projects competitors need.

03
// Phase 03 · Ongoing

Defect Intelligence

Anomalies flagged with confidence scores. Work orders and NERC evidence packages generated autonomously.

// The Platform

One system.
Raw imagery to operational intelligence.

Standard assets, novel classes, and defects — detected, self-improved, and delivered straight into the systems your team already uses.

// Why VisorVolt

Built for the grid.
Not adapted to it.

81%
mAP · EPRI benchmark

Proof the domain is hard

Off-the-shelf models score around 8% on aerial grid imagery. That is why every serious player has to train. The real question is what that training costs, and what happens to the model after it ships. Our production system: 81% mAP@0.50 (63.4% at the stricter COCO 0.50:0.95 average) on real EPRI Circuit 5 data. Held-out evaluation, mAP@0.50: Pole 97% · Transformer 94% · Crossarm 89% · Insulator 84% · Conductor 83% · Fuse 80%.

0
labels from you

You never label a single image

The system bootstraps a brand-new asset class from ~40 seed examples it generates and verifies itself — reaching 92% of a fully hand-labeled detector's accuracy — and adding it never costs you accuracy on the classes you already run. Your team labels nothing, ever. Competitors need thousands of hand-drawn boxes and months of onboarding; you upload imagery and get results.

0
migration required

Works inside what you already have

Detection writes natively into Esri ArcGIS, Hexagon, or any OGC-compatible platform. No parallel system. No export pipeline. No new infrastructure.

0
cloud required

Beats the cloud. Without the cloud.

Everyone else's inspection AI phones home to the cloud for the hard part: verifying what it found. Ours doesn't. Our air-gapped verifier outperforms a leading cloud model on our domain (F1 0.80 vs 0.71), with nothing leaving your network. The full pipeline, including AI-based verification, runs inside the utility's own NERC CIP boundary with zero external calls, on-premises or in your own cloud environment. BCSI compliant. The only inspection AI you can actually run inside a substation.

Compliance on autopilot

NERC FAC-003 evidence packages generated autonomously from detection output. Days of manual preparation collapse to minutes — every inspection, automatically documented.

// The Difference

Every serious vendor trains on utility data.
The question is who pays for it.

Buzz Solutions and AiDash both fine-tune models on customer-labeled data. That means every new asset class is a new labeling project the utility pays for, and every deployed model begins decaying the day it ships. We are architecturally different: our system generates and verifies its own training data. The difference is not a benchmark score. It is who pays to expand coverage, and what happens to accuracy after deployment.

labeling cost to you

Who pays to expand coverage

With label-dependent vendors, every new asset class means a labeling project on the utility's budget and timeline. Our system generates and verifies its own training data, so new asset classes onboard in days at zero labeling cost to the customer.

accuracy after deployment

What happens after it ships

A model trained on a fixed, hand-labeled dataset starts drifting from field conditions the day it ships, and the fix is another labeling round. Our deployed models feed the same self-labeling loop they were built with, so accuracy improves with every flight rather than degrading.

CIP
boundary · zero egress

Where it runs

The full pipeline, including AI-based verification, runs inside the utility's own NERC CIP boundary with zero external calls. It deploys on-premises or in the customer's own cloud environment. Cloud-dependent vendors cannot match this.

Same category. Different economics.

// Self-Improving

A research scientist
that never sleeps.

Self-improvement isn't a script — it's an autonomous agent that reads every model result and diagnoses the root cause: a model problem, or a data problem? If it's the model, the agent tunes hyperparameters, reads the latest research papers, and updates the model itself. If it's the data, it triggers the auto-label flywheel to harvest and self-verify new training examples. Proven, not promised: the flywheel has recovered a novel class's missing detections on its own — lifting its accuracy with zero new labels. All on-premises, overnight, with zero action from your team.
