IoT Building Automation

One Dashboard for Small Business HVAC, Energy & Security

Most building automation platforms are built and priced for large multi-site portfolios. If you're running a single office, a small retail space, or one commercial building, you don't need that scale - you need affordable building automation that puts HVAC, energy, and security on one simple dashboard, without a portfolio-level commitment or enterprise pricing.

Based in India. Serving small business owners, facility managers, and system integrators in the UK, US, and Australia since 2014.

The challenge with building automation isn't sensor coverage - it's fragmentation. HVAC controllers, occupancy sensors, energy meters, and air quality monitors each generate data on their own schedule, in their own format. For a small business, that fragmentation is worse, not better, because there's no dedicated facilities team to reconcile six different panels.

SensorVision resolves this at the platform layer: it ingests data from any device communicating over MQTT or REST, normalises it into a single dashboard view, and applies a rule-based alert engine that can trigger notifications or downstream actions when thresholds are crossed - a room temperature above 28°C, a CO₂ reading outside the safe range, or a motion sensor going inactive during occupied hours.

The platform can be hosted on the public cloud or on a local server, which matters even for a single small building where data sovereignty or network constraints make cloud-only solutions impractical.

Building Systems We Bring Online

Every major building system, normalised onto one dashboard, sized for a single building or a small portfolio.

🌡️
HVAC Monitoring & Control
Heating, cooling, ventilation

Track temperature, runtime, and fault codes across heating, cooling and ventilation equipment, with remote control where the hardware supports it.

🚪
Occupancy & Security
Motion, access, door status

Motion sensors, door/window contacts, and access events feed into occupancy-aware automation and after-hours security alerts.

Energy & Power Metering
Consumption, load, billing data

Sub-metered energy data surfaced in dashboards that make waste and load spikes visible immediately - small business energy monitoring that works even for a single meter, not just a multi-floor installation.

🌬️
Air Quality Monitoring
CO₂, humidity, particulates

CO₂, humidity and particulate sensors keep indoor air quality within a defined safe range, with automatic alerts when it isn't.

🔔
Rule-Based Alerts & Automation
Thresholds, notifications, actions

Configurable rules trigger notifications the moment a reading crosses a threshold you define - no facilities team required to watch a dashboard all day.

☁️
Cloud or On-Premise Hosting
Your choice, your constraints

Run on the public cloud or on a local server when data sovereignty or network policy rules out a cloud-only setup.

Who This Is For

Sized for one building first - expand only when you're ready.

🏪
Single Office or Small Retail Location

One building, one dashboard - no multi-tenant setup required to get started.

🏢
Small Commercial Building

Start with one HVAC system or one energy meter and prove it works before expanding.

🏭
Small Workshop or Facility

The same monitoring a large plant uses, sized to a floor that's a few thousand square feet, not a few hundred thousand.

🏫
Single-Site Campus

One location, fully instrumented, without portfolio-scale infrastructure.

🏘️
Growing Into Multiple Sites

Start on one building, add sites as you grow, on the same platform.

🖥️
Larger Portfolios

Running a multi-site or enterprise-scale operation? Talk to us about a dedicated portfolio rollout.

Platform Paths - Choose What Fits Your Building

Two proven platform routes and a fully custom option - sized to your building and budget, not just to enterprise portfolios.
