We love working with leaders that take AI seriously
Put people at the centre
They use AI to expand what their teams can do — not to replace them.
Think in systems, not quick fixes
They invest in AI that compounds value over time, not one-off pilots.
Operate in the real world
They need AI that holds under real constraints — regulation, legacy systems, organisational complexity.
From Fortune 500 companies to innovative startups, we help organisations transform with AI.
About us
We are humanists who refuse technology without purpose.
We design and implement high performing AI systems using ethics as an engineering discipline.
Founded by system architects who won the world's first public Hyperloop tender and scaled SaaS platforms to millions of daily users, Acqua was built to solve a structural problem: AI systems that hallucinate, destroy value, and cost more than they deliver — the opposite of what AI was supposed to be.
We combine frontier AI engineering, innovation strategy, and change management into a unique methodology to AI implementation where ethics drives performance, compliance, and sustainability. Our mission: prove that systematic ethical AI protects organisations and outperforms the alternative.
Why Acqua
Systematic. Ethical. Built to perform.
Our core team spans strategy, product, engineering, and training, delivering production-grade AI with ethics embedded at every stage. All certified Agile professionals.
We extend our capacity through a curated global ecosystem made of partners selected for capability and values alignment.
A curated global ecosystem—all aligned with this approach.
Proof, not promises
Selected results
Leadership teams lacked a shared framework for understanding and governing AI.
Training programmes delivered to EXCOMs of €3.5bn organisations and early-stage startups — same methodology, adapted to context.
Organisations needed production AI, not proof-of-concepts.
Energy consumption reduction platform deployed across commercial sites in Latin America — live, measured, maintained.
Repetitive tasks and scattered data were consuming teams' time and eroding focus.
30+ production workflows deployed. Teams refocused on high-value work.
Our principles
How we engineer every system
These aren't aspirations. They're architectural decisions embedded in every engagement.
Engineered Responsibility
Audit trails, privacy-by-design, and explicit constraints built into every system.
Data Sovereignty
GDPR and AI Act compliance from day one. Your data stays under your control.
Built for Longevity
Stress-tested, cost-optimized systems designed to evolve with your organisation.
Multi-Model Resilience
No dependency on any single provider. Continuity through diversified model architecture.
Technology
Production-grade AI. No vendor lock-in.
We design across models, runtimes, and cloud providers — so your architecture belongs to you, not a vendor.
