Tranzmeo IT Solutions: AI-Based Fiber Sensing for Critical Infrastructure
The platform developed by Tranzmeo IT Solutions analyses acoustic and thermal data collected through fiber-optic sensing systems to detect anomalies such as leaks, intrusions, structural damage, fires, and other operational risks.
The solution is intended for deployment across large-scale infrastructure including oil and gas pipelines, railway networks, subsea cables, and perimeter security systems.
Fiber-optic sensing technologies such as Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS), Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS), and Distributed Strain Sensing (DSS) enable optical fiber cables to function as continuous monitoring sensors across long distances.
These systems typically operate without field power supply or electronic components along the sensing path and are designed to function in varied environmental conditions.
Through this approach, Tranzmeo IT Solutions aims to enhance monitoring efficiency and risk detection capabilities for critical infrastructure operators.

AI Threat Intelligence Platform Trained on 4,000 Km Data
According to the company, the AI threat intelligence platform by Tranzmeo IT Solutions has been trained using datasets compiled from operational activity across approximately 4,000 kilometres of infrastructure.
The company also indicates that its software can be deployed over existing fiber sensing installations without requiring changes to the underlying fiber infrastructure, enabling scalability and cost efficiency.
Tranzmeo IT Solutions is backed by Shell plc and Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) and focuses on AI-led monitoring solutions for critical infrastructure.
The recognition at AVINYA’26 during India Energy Week 2026 highlights the startup’s role in advancing technology-driven solutions within India’s energy and infrastructure ecosystem.
