About AIroraSense
AIroraSense is focused on modernizing post-work QA/QC by turning field imagery into structured, review-ready outputs. The goal is simple: help utilities and contractors improve consistency, reduce friction, and scale inspection coverage.
Why AIS|Grid
AIS|Grid is designed to modernize post-work QA/QC by applying AI-assisted automation across both the field and the review process. It pairs a field-facing capture workflow with a structured inspection and reporting interface for inspectors, auditors, and utility stakeholders.
Built on deep industry experience, AIS|Grid focuses on reducing manual effort, improving consistency, and scaling inspection coverage without adding friction to crews or reviewers.
Why us
We know utility work from the inside. We understand the paperwork, the field conditions, the contractor chaos, and the gaps that slow inspections down and drive spend up. That perspective shapes how AIS|Grid is designed: practical, grounded in real workflows, and focused on what improves QA/QC outcomes.
Why now
QA/QC demands continue to rise while inspection coverage remains limited. Regulators expect greater visibility. Customers expect responsible capital spend. Utilities are under increasing pressure to demonstrate safety, reliability, and accountability across every project. At the same time, grid modernization and climate-driven investments are accelerating. Inspection processes must scale accordingly.
What AIS|Grid enables
AIS|Grid supports AI-driven post-work QA/QC across newly installed facilities for utilities and contractors. The system is designed to:
- Expand post-work QA/QC coverage toward full project populations
- Support consistent review and documentation
- Improve visibility into safety, quality, and compliance outcomes
- Help protect reliability and return on capital investments

What we’re hearing
“This would help us make sure our storm hardening work is being built correctly, since we are spending what we spend on it.”
A regional contractor added dedicated QA/QC resources to keep up with inspection requirements, increasing costs by approximately $150k. Department spend approached $300k annually, yet inspection coverage remained focused on large cost projects, representing less than 25% of total work.
“Half my week was spent performing post job audits but I only saw less than 1% of all work. The guidelines were jobs greater than $50k in cost or if they exceeded a certain threshold of designed cost. Other than that, only random inspections were conducted.”
