Smart buildings
Smart building platform with IoT and AI
Know how your buildings really operate. Sensors, smart meters and connected HVAC equipment feed real-time data into one platform, and AI-driven analysis helps you cut energy use, improve comfort and plan ahead.
Building performance starts with measurement
Reducing energy use and costs is much easier when you know how a building actually behaves. Without accurate measurements, it is hard to manage and improve it.
With EcoNode™ you establish the baseline you need for improvement. The system automatically measures key performance factors, using AI and machine learning, and collects and analyses data from many kinds of sensors, so you get a complete, real-time view of the building.
AI-driven insights show where to improve. By predicting heating and cooling needs, the system can adjust building systems before conditions change, which reduces energy waste, lowers operating costs and cuts the building’s CO₂ footprint.
What IoT brings to a building
Efficiency, comfort and sustainability from the same data.
Enhanced efficiency
Detailed data allows precise monitoring and control of building systems. Smart HVAC can adjust heating and cooling to real-time occupancy and weather.
Improved comfort
IoT sensors monitor and adjust indoor conditions, keeping temperature and air quality consistent for the people who live and work there.
Cost savings
Data supports predictive maintenance, which reduces downtime and can extend the lifespan of building systems.
Sustainability
Optimised resource use and lower emissions help you reach sustainability goals and implement eco-friendly practices.
Data-driven decisions
A continuous flow of data helps managers spot inefficiencies, track improvements and plan long-term building strategies.
Smart buildings in the city
Smart buildings are central to a city’s sustainable, energy-saving strategy and to modern living and working standards.
What Sensor-Online connects
Real-time data on temperature, humidity, occupancy and energy.
Sensors
Wireless sensors for temperature, humidity, CO₂, occupancy and more, in rooms, technical spaces and meter cabinets.
Smart meters
Electricity, water and heat meters over LoRaWAN or M-Bus show consumption per building.
Connected HVAC
Connect to building systems over BACnet and KNX, or through the REST API and MQTT.

What can I monitor in a smart building?
Temperature, humidity, CO₂, occupancy, energy and water use, and the condition of technical rooms.
How does AI help?
AI analyses the data to establish a baseline, find inefficiencies and predict heating and cooling needs, so building systems can be adjusted in advance.
Can it work with our existing building systems?
Yes. Sensor-Online supports protocols used in buildings, such as BACnet and KNX, and has an open API for other systems.
Do I need to run new cables?
Not for wireless sensors. They run on batteries and send data over LoRaWAN, so they can be placed where you need them.
Can I manage many buildings in one platform?
Yes. Many properties and customers run in one multi-tenant platform, with views for each role.
