The EPANET user's dilemma

  • Classic EPANET is powerful — but clunky and outdated. Workarounds become your workflow — slow and cumbersome.
  • Big-name platforms look polished, but they're overpriced and bloated with features you don't need to analyze your network quickly.
  • Modern browser-based tools exist — but they force your data into the cloud, raising privacy and compliance concerns. Plus, they offer little for those doing long-term planning and analysis.

You shouldn't have to choose between speed, security, and affordability just to understand your water networks.

The endpoint is a critical internal URL used by Google Cloud Platform (GCP) resources to manage identities and security credentials. It acts as a gateway for applications running on Compute Engine, GKE, or Cloud Run to interact with the Google Cloud Metadata Server . Understanding the Metadata Server

Every virtual machine (VM) in Google Cloud has access to a local metadata server. This server is not reachable from the public internet but can be queried from within the VM at the internal DNS name metadata.google.internal or the IP 169.254.169.254 .

The service-accounts/ directory within this server provides information about the IAM service accounts attached to the instance, including their identities and the temporary OAuth 2.0 access tokens required to call other GCP APIs.

No setup or downloads — just instant access right in your browser.

EPANET deserves better — and so do you.

EPANET was a gift to the industry — free, open-source water modeling for all. But commercial vendors built on it, locked away improvements, and left the community behind.

epanet-js is our answer: a faster, simpler, affordable water modeling tool that protects your privacy and sustains the open-source future of water modeling.

We're proud to be part of the next chapter — and we're just getting started.

When you support epanet-js, you support EPANET.

When you purchase more features in epanet-js, you're investing in the future of open-source EPANET development.

Our open-source model balances innovation and accessibility:

Anyone can build on our code. The two-year commercial-use delay gives us the incentive to keep pushing forward — and that fuels progress for everyone.

That means when you support us, you support more affordable hydraulic modeling software for the entire community.

Simple, transparent pricing for every kind of modeler.
