Re-thinking how UPS batteries get maintained

We're a small team building physics-grounded, AI-assisted analytics for UPS battery strings — so facility and critical-power teams can replace on condition, not on a calendar.

Batteries are the weak link in critical power

A UPS is only as reliable as the batteries behind it — and most facilities still find out a string is weak when it fails to hold load during an outage.

Our Vision

The world's most complete UPS battery analytics platform

A BMS is built to protect a battery moment-to-moment — not to tell you how it's aging over months and years. That gap is why strings fail without warning, and why good batteries get replaced years too early. We took on the challenge of building the tool that closes it: independent of the BMS, independent of the battery vendor, and honest about what it can and can't tell you yet.

Our Philosophy

Precision over guesswork

Physics-grounded

Models built on how batteries actually age — internal resistance, float current, and capacity fade — not black-box pattern matching.

Academically validated

Developed alongside ongoing university research into predictive battery maintenance — not a marketing claim, an active research thread.

Responsible data handling

Your telemetry is yours. We're clear about what we collect, why, and how long we keep it.

Where a Dead Battery Is Never Just a Battery

UPS batteries sit behind the systems that can't go dark

Data centers

Uninterruptible really has to mean uninterruptible — a weak string discovered mid-outage is the failure mode every operator fears most.

Hospitals

Life-safety and critical-care equipment depend on backup power actually being there when the grid isn't.

Christoph Lang

A construction machinery industry veteran and former global product manager at Hilti, Christoph is now CCO and co-founder of 4QT, where he has led software and service innovation projects and shaped go-to-market strategy for OEM partners and contractors — bringing that commercial playbook to how Weltrom reaches operators and facility teams.

Status

Active research — in development

We're building this in the open, with early design partners. If you operate UPS fleets and want to shape what we build, we'd like to talk to you.
