AI and analytics

AI and analytics for IoT sensor data through MCP

Let an AI model analyse your sensor data. Through an MCP server and the open API it reads structured data from Sensor-Online, finds patterns and deviations, and writes the report.

How it works

From sensor data to insight.

Sensor data

Readings are stored in Sensor-Online.

API and MCP server

Structured JSON data is fetched through the open API.

AI model

The model analyses the data, through n8n or directly.

Insight

Comparisons, deviations and reports.

What you can do

Questions that used to need an analyst.

Compare week to week

For example compare energy use with weather conditions from one week to the next.

Detect deviations

Let the system find readings that stand out from the normal pattern.

Automatic reports

Have findings summarised and reported without manual work.

Build on open data

The analysis uses structured data from the open API.

A tool for people, not a replacement

Check results before you act.

AI findings are a starting point. Review important deviations and recommendations with someone who knows the operation before acting on them.

Frequently asked questions

How does AI connect to Sensor-Online?

Through an MCP server that fetches structured JSON data from the open API, and through n8n, so an AI model can analyse it.

What can the AI do with my data?

Compare periods, such as energy use against weather from week to week, detect deviations and produce reports.

Can I use my own AI model?

Yes. If you already run a local LLM, it can be used instead of a cloud model.

Does my data have to leave my environment?

Not with a local LLM. With a cloud model, the data you choose to analyse is sent to that provider’s service.

Is this ready-made or custom?

It is a flexible capability built on the open API. Talk to us about the analyses you want.
