Problem
Many residential buildings, particularly in underserved areas, lack access to affordable, high-speed internet, creating a digital divide that impacts residents' access to education, employment, and essential services. Existing infrastructure limitations and the high cost of deployment often prevent traditional internet service providers from offering competitive broadband options in these areas.
Solution
Flume provides gigabit fiber optic internet service to multifamily residential properties by leveraging underutilized data centers and existing fiber infrastructure. This asset-light approach allows Flume to deliver high-bandwidth internet at a lower cost compared to traditional providers. By partnering with cities and wholesale fiber providers, Flume taps into unused network capacity, offering residents in underserved areas a reliable and affordable alternative for high-speed internet access. Flume's Building View software solution further streamlines operations by providing purpose-built GIS for vertical fiber, hands-free tenant management, and seamless bulk billing.
Target Audience
Flume primarily targets residents of multifamily properties, property owners, and managers seeking to enhance property value and tenant satisfaction, as well as small municipalities looking to improve internet access for their communities.
