What we do

Predict. Prioritise. Defend.

Predict

DrainRisk uses machine learning to predict which transport assets are most likely to fail, based on data your council already holds and publicly available datasets.

Prioritise

Our risk scores help you focus inspections, maintenance, and budget where they have the most impact.

Defend

Every score is explainable, transparent, and backed by validated methodology. Designed for procurement, audit, and reporting.

DrainRisk: AI-powered culvert prioritisation

DrainRisk dashboard: a map of western Brisbane around Kenmore and Chapel Hill with culverts coloured by risk tier, summary counts of 5,232 scored culverts (76 HIGH, 742 MEDIUM, 4,414 LOW), and a detail panel for one HIGH-tier culvert

DrainRisk is an AI model that ranks which culverts to prioritise for inspection and maintenance. It combines a flood-exposure model with a hydraulic capacity check, so a culvert is rated HIGH only when it is both flood-prone and undersized. Each culvert comes with its scores and a confidence rating, so the ranking can be explained and defended.
