Nimble Vision

What Nimble Vision does

Nimble Vision Pvt Ltd is a Bangalore-based, privately-held deep-tech startup founded in 2016 that builds IoT-based water-infrastructure technology for India's urban and semi-urban distribution challenges. Its core stack is a patent-backed tank-based hourly water usage measurement system that combines wireless connectivity (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GSM, LoRa, LAN) with real-time analytics, automated motor control, leakage detection, and water-quality monitoring across parameters including TDS, pH, ORP, dissolved oxygen, COD, BOD, nitrate, and ammonia. The product portfolio, sold under the 'Ni' brand, comprises five connected devices: Ni-The Water Saviour (smart water level controller and meter for homes, apartments, and industries), Ni-The Flow Meter (LoRa/Bluetooth wireless meter with ISO/CE Class-2 accuracy and remote valve control), Ni-The Smart Manhole Monitor (sewage level and quality monitoring for municipalities), Ni-Sensu (a retrofit that makes any water purifier smart with TDS and air-quality sensing), and Ni-The Pool Pal (swimming-pool management with motor/light control and water-quality diagnostics).

The company monetizes across three streams: B2B enterprise water-automation and water-quality solutions on an outcome-based/performance-first validation model where payment follows demonstrated results; B2G municipal and smart-city deployments on a subscription/recurring basis; and direct IoT hardware sales (124 deployed devices disclosed to date, tracking roughly 10 million litres of consumption and a matching volume of water saved). Go-to-market is direct enterprise and government field sales, supplemented by a flagship distribution partnership with VA TECH WABAG (Blue Seed, 2025) for global market access, plus AWS public-sector and GSMA/WASH Innovation Hub ecosystem channels. Customers are predominantly Indian municipalities and utilities, including Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation and Bengaluru Urban Water Systems, with named recognitions from MoHUA (Amrut 2.0), BWSSB, NITI Aayog, and UN Water. Ownership is held by founders Vaishali Chinnayya (BSc, BEd, 13 years management) and Chinnayya Math (BE, MS, 23 years IT across DRDO, NDS, CISCO, BOSCH), alongside undisclosed institutional and WABAG seed investors.
