Case Study: City of Mesa boosts pipeline assessment efficiency with SewerAI

City of Mesa cuts coding-related labor by 25% with SewerAI

The City of Mesa, a large municipality in Arizona, faced a challenge with its wastewater inspection workflow. Its crews were losing an entire day per week per operator to the manual coding of CCTV footage, pulling skilled workers out of the field. The city needed a solution to eliminate this bottleneck and consolidate its inspection data, especially since its third-party contractors were already using SewerAI's AutoCode service.

By implementing SewerAI's AutoCode, Mesa eliminated manual coding and integrated inspection directly into its cleaning process using a custom GoPro skid. This allowed cleaning and inspection to be completed in a single pass, recovering 50% of the workday. SewerAI's solution reduced coding-related labor by an estimated 25%, enabled the in-house completion of hundreds of monthly inspections that were previously outsourced, and significantly expanded the city's condition assessment coverage.
