H2O.ai and Certis partner to scale agentic AI across urban infrastructure. H2O.ai, a global leader in sovereign, agentic, and predictive artificial intelligence, has entered into a strategic partnership with Certis Group, Singapore's leading advanced integrated solutions provider, to expand the use of AI across Certis' operational environments. Through a newly signed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), both organizations aim to deploy advanced agentic and predictive AI capabilities that enhance operational resilience, improve decision-making, and strengthen safety across complex urban and infrastructure settings. The MOU signing ceremony marked an important step in the AI transformation journeys of both companies and was attended by senior leadership, including H2O.ai Founder & CEO Sri Ambati and Certis President & Group CEO Ng Tian Beng. By formalizing this collaboration, the two companies will combine their technological strengths to address real-world challenges in sectors such as urban security, transportation, and critical infrastructure management. As part of the partnership, H2O.ai's sovereign and predictive AI platform will integrate with Certis' Mozart AI orchestration platform. This combined approach will enable real-time situational awareness, proactive risk anticipation, and more effective operational planning. Moreover, the collaboration will help coordinate people, processes, and autonomous systems seamlessly, even in highly complex and dynamic environments. As a result, organizations operating at scale can respond faster, plan smarter, and operate more safely. Commenting on the partnership, Sri Ambati, Founder & CEO of H2O.ai, said: "We are excited to collaborate with Certis, Singapore's pioneering advanced integrated solutions provider. By combining H2O.ai's sovereign and predictive AI capabilities with Certis', we can democratize AI for good, enabling more efficient and responsible AI deployments that address real-world challenges in safety and sustainability." From Certis' perspective, the collaboration addresses the growing need to operationalize AI reliably rather than simply experiment with it. Ng Tian Beng, President & Group CEO of Certis, highlighted the high-stakes nature of their work, stating: "At Certis, we operate in environments where decisions have real consequences, especially on safety, continuity, and public trust." He further added: "As we scale our use of AI, the challenge is no longer experimentation, but how to standardise, govern, and industrialise AI reliably across operations. Partnering with H2O.ai strengthens our ability to do this responsibly, combining operational depth with robust AI capabilities." Under the MOU, both companies will explore several joint initiatives. These include the co-development of AI models designed specifically for orchestration, prediction, and decision support in security and operational contexts. In addition, they will deploy and validate AI-powered systems such as robotics and predictive applications directly in live operational settings. To ensure long-term success, the partnership will also focus on building organizational AI readiness through knowledge-sharing workshops that promote AI literacy and ethical AI practices across the workforce. Importantly, this collaboration aligns closely with Singapore's Smart Nation vision, supporting national goals to strengthen AI infrastructure and democratize access to advanced AI technologies. It also builds on Certis' recent industry recognition, including the acknowledgment of its leaders among H2O.ai's top 100 global AI influencers. Overall, the partnership between H2O.ai and Certis reflects a shared commitment to responsible, scalable, and sovereign AI one that not only advances technology adoption but also delivers tangible impact across safety-critical and public-facing operations.
