Belidor AI Raises $7.9M Series A

Belidor AI, an AI-powered operational intelligence platform for water treatment facilities, announced a $7.9 million Series A funding round on February 4, 2026.

The round was co-led by T Bridge Venture Partners and 49th Fund, with participation from PACA Ventures, Nexenai Capital, and A195 Capital.

Founded by Jerry Hanson, Belidor AI helps utility and industrial water operators bring together information from SCADA systems, data historians, spreadsheets, manual logs, and plant documents. Its platform includes Agent Zed, an AI process engineer that can analyse plant performance, answer operational questions, perform recurring jobs, and generate reports using a facility's own data.

The company's wider product suite includes digital twins and plant audits, dashboards, calculated metrics, alerts, tasks and procedures, and data integrations. Belidor AI is designed to help treatment teams identify abnormal conditions earlier, investigate root causes, reduce repetitive analysis, and make more consistent operational decisions.

Belidor AI supports wastewater, drinking water, industrial water, food and beverage, desalination, and water reuse operations. The platform works with existing plant infrastructure and uses read-only connections to control-system data.

The Series A adds resources as Belidor AI continues developing its platform, strengthening implementation capabilities, and expanding access to AI-powered decision support across the water sector.
