A building that runs itself

One local agent watches every building system around the clock and coordinates energy, safety and operations toward your business goals. Thousands of small daily decisions happen without a person in the loop, while your team keeps control and a full audit trail.

100% local Works offline Explainable decisions Keeps your BMS

Glass high rise in golden and blue evening light

An autonomous building runs on one local decision layer that sits on top of the existing BMS, HVAC, PLC and sensors. It coordinates energy, safety and facility operations together toward business KPIs, so thousands of small daily decisions happen without a person in the loop, on the operator's own hardware with no cloud. It does not rip and replace what is installed. It adds one intelligent layer over the systems already in the building, and operators keep control with a full audit trail.

01The problem

Three systems that never talk to each other

A commercial building already has a BMS for climate, separate safety and access systems, and facility tasks handled by hand. Each is optimized on its own. The BMS chases setpoints, safety runs in its own silo, and operations react after something breaks. Nobody coordinates all three toward cost, uptime and risk at the same time, so the building leaks money and needs people watching it every day.

Siloed systems

Energy, safety and operations each run on their own controllers and dashboards, so trade offs between them are never balanced.

Every decision needs a person

Thousands of small daily choices wait on staff, and skilled operators are scarce and do not scale across a portfolio.

Cost and risk drift up

Volatile power prices, aging assets and manual incident response quietly raise energy spend, downtime and liability.

02How it works

One agent over energy, safety and operations

The agent reads every building system continuously, weighs the trade offs across all three domains against the operator's targets and drives the actuators and controllers that are already installed. It plans ahead across domains instead of leaving each silo to react on its own, and it explains every move in plain language.

  1. 1

    Coordinate all three domains

    Instead of siloed controllers, one agent plans energy, safety and operations together. It sees that a floor is empty, prices are high and a sensor is drifting, and it acts on all of it at once.

  2. 2

    Plan across the whole building

    It forecasts weather, prices, occupancy and asset condition and schedules moves hours ahead across every system, rather than each controller reacting to its own threshold after the fact.

  3. 3

    Explain and stay in control

    Ask why it lowered a setpoint or escalated an alarm and it answers in plain language. Every decision is logged and auditable, and the team sets the guardrails and can override any action.

03Outcomes

Lower cost, more uptime, less risk

Operators do not want a single tuned system. They want the whole building to move the P&L. The agent optimizes energy, keeps assets available and turns incident response from minutes into seconds. The ranges below come from independent and commissioned studies for this technology category.

04What the agent does

One agent, the whole building

Energy optimization

It coordinates HVAC, lighting and loads against occupancy, weather and power prices, shifting demand to cheap hours and cutting waste without hurting comfort, all planned hours ahead.

Safety and compliance

It watches access, safety sensors and cameras, detects incidents and escalates them in seconds instead of minutes, and logs everything for compliance and audits.

Facility operations

It automates routine facility tasks, opens work orders when an asset drifts and drives occupancy based cleaning, ventilation and maintenance so fewer choices wait on staff.

Audit trail and registry

Every decision and sub agent is recorded in an agent registry with full logging, so the whole building stays traceable and answerable to owners and regulators.

Vision, industrial bus and robotics

On device cameras with computer vision, industrial protocols like Modbus and OPC-UA and connected robotics let it read and act on existing hardware, and images never leave the building.

Fleet and OTA

Across a portfolio it compares buildings, finds the strategy that runs cheapest and safest and rolls it out everywhere over the air from one place.

06Local by design

Your data never leaves the building

The agent runs entirely on the operator's own hardware. No cloud, no data leaving the building, and it keeps running even when the internet drops. Every action is logged and auditable, which matters when the building answers to owners and regulators.

  • Runs on on-site hardware in the building
  • No cloud dependency
  • Keeps running through internet outages
  • Works over existing BMS, HVAC and PLC
  • Full audit trail with registry and logging
  • Designed for EU Cyber Resilience Act readiness
07FAQ

Questions building operators ask

Do we have to replace our BMS?

No. The agent adds one decision layer on top of the existing BMS, HVAC, PLC and sensors. It coordinates what is already installed toward energy, safety and operations goals, and full manual control stays with the team.

How do energy, safety and operations work together?

One agent plans across all three domains at once instead of leaving each silo to react on its own. It balances cost, uptime and risk together, and links out to a dedicated page for each pillar.

Does it run without internet?

Yes. Everything runs locally on your own hardware, so the agent keeps coordinating the building during outages and no building data ever leaves the site.

How much can we actually save?

Independent and commissioned studies for this category report meaningful ranges for energy, availability and ROI, and safety response moves from minutes toward seconds. We do not promise a fixed number. The real figures get measured in a pilot.

Who stays in control and is it auditable?

The team sets the guardrails and can override any action at any time. Every decision and sub agent is recorded in a registry with full logging, so the whole building stays traceable for owners and regulators.

Does it work across a portfolio?

Yes. A fleet view compares buildings, finds the strategy that runs cheapest and safest and rolls it out everywhere over the air from one place.

Start a pilot in one building, let one agent coordinate energy, safety and operations, measure the real numbers on your own site and keep the team in control the whole way.

Sources and notes

  1. 1Energy: NREL, reported independently via 75F, up to about 31% lower building energy use. Results depend on the building and starting point and get validated in a pilot.
  2. 2Availability and maintenance: Deloitte, plus 10 to 20% asset availability and 5 to 10% lower maintenance cost with predictive approaches. Strongly asset and portfolio dependent.
  3. 3ROI: a commissioned Forrester Total Economic Impact analysis via JCI OpenBlue reported up to about 155% ROI over three years. Safety is qualitative, incident response moves from minutes toward seconds. Every figure gets validated in a pilot, not promised.
