Waterplan Water Risk & Stewardship Platform

Waterplan is a San Francisco software company, operated by Climateplan Inc., co-founded by Jose Ignacio Galindo, Nicolas Wertheimer and Matias Comercio, who met through the World Economic Forum's Global Shapers Community. It serves water-dependent companies whose factories and suppliers face scarcity, flooding, quality and regulatory risks, and which must set and report water targets to investors and buyers.

The AI-native platform combines expert-validated, high-resolution local water data with a proprietary risk framework to assess scarcity, flooding, quality, reputational, infrastructure and regulatory risk across direct operations and the supply chain, and to rank high-risk sites. A Water Stewardship module sets, tracks and reports targets and volumetric water benefit projects, AI Metering detects anomalies in water, gas and energy use, and Carbon and Site Screening modules support decarbonisation roadmaps and new site selection. AI agents automate data collection, analysis and reporting for EHS, operations and sustainability teams at food, beverage and manufacturing companies.

• Water Risk: site-level scarcity, flooding, quality, reputational, infrastructure and regulatory risk across operations and supply chain.
• Water Stewardship: setting, tracking and reporting water targets and volumetric water benefit projects.
• AI Metering: anomaly detection in water, gas and energy consumption.
• Carbon: carbon roadmaps embedded in daily operations.
• Site Screening: water risk screening for new sites and due diligence.
• AI agents: multi-agent assistant that automates data collection, analysis and reporting.

Beverage, dairy and food groups in Vietnam can map water risk across plants and set stewardship targets for brand owners. Textile and footwear suppliers can answer buyer water questionnaires with site-level data. Industrial investors can screen candidate locations for drought, salinity and flood exposure before building new factories.

Sustainability and EHS teams can see water risk for every site and key suppliers in one place and focus investment on the highest-risk locations. The company claims a 10x time saving on data collection, assessment and reporting. Targets, stewardship projects and volumetric benefits are tracked continuously, producing evidence for disclosure frameworks and buyer questionnaires. Metering anomaly detection helps cut water and energy waste at site level.

Global brands increasingly ask suppliers for water data under frameworks such as CDP and CSRD, and investors treat water risk as a material climate risk. Manufacturing hubs in Vietnam face both droughts and salinity intrusion in the Mekong Delta and flooding in the north, so exporters need site-level water risk assessment and credible stewardship reporting.
