One building. Hundreds of rooms. One setting.
Every room has its own sun, its own people and its own hours. Most buildings still run one setting for all of them. We are building a microclimate assistant that learns each room and helps the building respond.
A building is controlled as one system. It is used as hundreds of rooms.
The thermostat on the wall reads one point in one room. Sun, weather, who is inside and what they are doing all change by the hour. So someone is always too warm, too cold or sitting in stale air. In care settings it matters more, because the people in the room cannot always tell you how they feel.
A microclimate assistant
It does two jobs. It collects data from rooms and the people in them, and it uses that data to help run each room.
-
Collect
Small sensors in every room measure temperature, humidity, light and air quality. Later, a personal sensor near a bed or chair reads the air around the person, and simple taps tell us how it feels.
-
Understand
A small model on a device in the room learns what comfortable means for the people in it. The data stays in the room. No cameras, no audio.
-
Assist
It suggests and adjusts the heating and ventilation the building already has, inside limits the facility manager sets. If ours fails, the building's own system carries on.
Not a replacement for what is already installed. A layer on top of it.
Care first. Then everywhere one setting fails.
Care settings
Many people with different needs under one roof, ventilation that matters, and residents who cannot always say how they feel. We start here, with environmental management only: no medical claims, and not a medical device.
We are looking for a care partner and a university for a first small pilot, with ethics approval first.
-
Homes
Heat pumps and hourly energy prices reward room by room control: keep each room comfortable, pre-heat when power is cheap, coast when it is expensive. This is a hypothesis we want to test, not a result.
-
Schools
Rooms fill and empty through the day, and fresh air matters. Small devices, no cloud needed.
-
Workplaces
Hybrid work leaves rooms empty for much of the week. Heating and ventilation can follow who is actually there.
Early, and honest about it.
What exists today
A working proof of concept on a microcontroller: sensors for temperature, humidity, light and air quality, a small model, and a display that shows what it reads. Built by the four of us.
What does not exist yet
Pilots, customers and measured results. We will say so here when that changes.

Tell us what you can bring.
If you run a care home, a school or an office, or the heating and ventilation inside one, we would like to hear what is hardest about keeping rooms comfortable. A site to try, an idea, some data, a contact or a straight critique all help.
A pilot form and booking are on the way. Until then, email is the best way.
