Utilidata

Utilidata is an Ann Arbor, Michigan software company building Karman, a distributed AI platform that runs on a custom NVIDIA system-on-module embedded directly into electrical infrastructure — smart meters and grid-edge devices on the utility side, PDUs and power trays inside AI data centers. Karman processes high-resolution AC metrology locally (single-cycle waveform statistics at 1+ MS/s sample rates) to produce "data products" such as Power Quality Analytics, enabling millisecond-level power control, GPU/PSU failure prediction, phase balancing and power-aware scheduling. Utilidata publishes the Karman Power Aware Module as Apache-2.0 open source: a Rust reference implementation that serializes Karman data products as Protocol Buffers (package utilidata.karman.bibimbap.v1), transports them over ZeroMQ, and exposes them to Prometheus and TimescaleDB through a Helm-packaged Kubernetes stack. The company has raised a $100M Series C and counts NVIDIA, Microsoft Climate Innovation Fund, American Electric Power and Renown Capital Partners among its backers.

Utilidata is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Energy, Electric Grid, Utilities, and Data Centers.

Utilidata’s developer surface includes engineering blog, support, and 15 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Energy & Utilities regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/utilidata: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →
