Listen to this articleFounded in 2018, Infogrid is making the unfulfilled promise of scalable IoT a reality. Combining the world’s smartest IoT sensors with powerful AI, the Infogrid platform enables Facilities Managers and estate owners to optimize and automate their facilities and building management, saving time, money, and the environment, whilst improving safety. With Infogrid’s end-to-end system, it has never been easier to deliver a truly smart building. Below is our recent interview with William Cowell de Gruchy, the Founder and CEO of Infogrid:
Q: Can you give us more insights into smart buildings?
A: Unlike nearly every other industry that has been revolutionized by data, our buildings and facilities have not. This is largely due to the complexity of getting data from the physical world. Smart building tech until recently has been too expensive and too complicated to install and therefore it is not a viable or scaleable solution. With innovations in sensor technology and AI, it is now possible to install thousands of low-cost, hassle-free sensors with easy and start collecting data instantly.
The Infogrid platform is the most diverse, in that it offers the broadest range of smart building use cases. More info on use cases here.
