Ethical intelligence.

Meaningful performance.

We help organisations move from AI experimentation to production.

Acqua designs and integrates AI systems that scale, remain governable, and deliver measurable results. We embed ethics at within architecture and governance to maximise adoption and performance. 

  • 4 weeks to prototype, production-ready use cases 
  • 74 NPS across corporate training programmes
  • Reduced vendor lock-in through multi-model and open architectures
SOLUTIONS

Not pilots. Built to hold under pressure.

AI initiatives fail when they are designed for demos instead of real conditions. We engineer systems that remain reliable over time: technically, organisationally, and legally.

Multi-model design

Avoid single-point dependency

Automated fallback paths

Preserve uptime and continuity

Open-source–first

Maintain control and sovereignty

Enabling

From hesitation to operational confidence

Our training and hands-on formats help leaders and teams make informed AI decisions quickly, with a clear understanding of risks, limits, and opportunities.

You leave with shared language, concrete use cases, and practical guardrails.

Automation

High-value use cases delivered in 4 weeks

We design production-ready workflows that save time and augment human work, not fragile proofs of concept. Our MVPs are designed to scale safely and drive ROI.

Every system is built to be transparent, traceable, and compliant from day one.

Strategy

ROI-driven roadmaps with governance built in

We help leadership teams prioritise where AI creates value for their teams, where it doesn’t, and where new revenue streams can come from.

Clear sequencing, trade-offs, and governance to implement AI at scale.

We work best with organisations that

Lead with impact

Turning ambition into concrete outcomes

Take a techno-humanist stance

Using technology to strengthen human capability

Think beyond short-term wins

Designing systems that endure

Act with intent

Implementing change that holds in real conditions

Why Acqua?

Impact-driven organisations need AI they can stand behind.

Most consultancies rebuild from scratch for each engagement. We don’t.

Our proprietary Commons are reusable, production-tested AI components designed to standardise what should not vary – security patterns, governance logic, ethical constraints – while leaving room for what must: your context, your business, your strategy.

This approach reduces delivery time and cost, limits rework and compliance retrofits, and makes responsible behaviour enforceable at system level.

Each engagement strengthens the framework, creating cumulative learning instead of isolated projects.

About us

We are techno-humanists who refuse technology without purpose.

Acqua was founded by builders who have delivered complex technological systems — including Hyperloop (large-scale mobility) solutions and global software platforms — and understand what breaks when systems are rushed into production.

Our conviction is straightforward: when AI enhances human capability instead of replacing it, performance improves and trust follows. We operate with a curated global ecosystem of experts aligned with this approach:

Strategy experts

AI specialists

Software developers

Designers

CLIENTS AND PARTNERS

Trusted by leaders building for long term impact

SELECTED RESULTS
Real constraints

Leaders recognise AI’s importance but lack a shared framework to act decisively.

We have delivered AI training and strategic alignment for EXCOMs of €3.5 bn organisations and early-stage startups operating under resource pressure.

Real systems

Beyond day-to-day productivity, there are tremendous opportunities in AI-native features and products.

We build production-ready systems – such as solutions designed to reduce energy consumption across commercial sites in Latin America.

Real outcomes

Data spread across platforms, teams spending time on endless, repetitive tasks, …

We have deployed 30+ production workflows for teams to eliminate repetitive work and refocus effort on value creation.

DESIGN PRINCIPLES

Responsible AI drives durable performance

When ethical constraints guide architecture, systems become easier to scale, audit, and trust.

Engineered responsibility

Audit trails, privacy-by-design, explicit constraints

Data sovereignty

GDPR, AI Act, and enterprise security requirements addressed from the start


Built for longevity

Agile delivery, cost-optimised, stress-tested, fully documented

Multi-model resilience

Continuity through diversified model strategies

TECHNOLOGY

Efficient by design, sustainable by choice

We combine open-source and enterprise-grade technologies selected for operational efficiency, regulatory compatibility, and environmental impact.
