Customize your digital water toolkit with add-ons and plug-ins created by your water community
You can now browse innovative digital water add-ons and plug-ins created by people just like you, who understand the day-to-day challenges of water management, at Qatium Marketplace.
Qatium Marketplace is a hub where anyone — from utilities and software vendors to consultants or casual coders — can submit tools they’ve developed using Qatium’s Software Development Kit (SDK), for purchase or for free, so the wider community can benefit from their actions and customize Qatium to their ways of working.
This new marketplace is a practical enabler within Qatium’s Open Water approach and a step towards achieving our mission to make digital water management available to all utilities, big and small.
Why Qatium Marketplace?
We want to break down traditional boundaries and work in a much more open manner … so users have much more power in how they use the tools we produce.
— Luke Butler, Director of Innovation, Qatium
Water utilities around the world often face similar challenges but end up reinventing the wheel by developing solutions independently. This way of working is slow and puts the water industry behind at a time when we need to quickly come up with innovative solutions to address today’s rapidly changing water challenges, like climate change.
The concept of “Open Water” is central to our approach at Qatium. Open Water is about transparency, collaboration, and free sharing of information (as opposed to competitive guarding) — with an underlying goal to accelerate innovation, improve accessibility, and create value through collective effort in the water sector.
By providing an SDK and marketplace for the water community to develop and share their creative solutions, Qatium aims to disrupt old ways of working in the water sector, reduce the digital divide between utilities, and foster a collaborative environment that drives progress and benefits everyone.
Innovate with us: submit your plugin to Qatium Marketplace
Qatium recognizes the limits of a company … there is a wide range of unique water management situations out there that our team may never think of or challenges Qatium may not be able to develop tools fast enough for. Someone could pick up our SDK and completely change the way Qatium is used, and solve problems that we never originally considered, and we welcome that possibility.
— Luke Butler, Director of Innovation, Qatium
If you’ve modified or extended our software using our SDK, you can easily contribute back to the community by submitting your solution to Qatium Marketplace. We encourage you to share what you’ve created, so you can help others benefit from your advancements and foster a reciprocal cycle of innovation in the water management sector.
