Device Monitoring
Device APIs & data connectors
Read data from any device or platform that offers an API, an SDK, webhooks, MQTT, OPC UA or BACnet, and keep it in one place with its history.
What we build
Scales, GPS trackers, production lines, smart meters and building systems all collect useful data. Each keeps it in its own app, and nobody sees it next to anything else.
- Connectors for device and vendor APIs, SDKs and webhooks
- Collection over MQTT, OPC UA, BACnet or a vendor's cloud platform
- One format for every reading: device, value, unit and time
- Limits, alerts and dashboards on top of the collected data
How it works
A typical data flow, from your equipment to the place the data is used.

Getting started
What we need from you
- The device or platform, with its model and software version
- Its documentation, or access to its API, SDK or message broker
- Which values matter and how fresh they need to be
What you receive
- A running connector for each type of device
- Readings in clear units, with full history
- A written list of every connected device and value
Questions
Any device or system that shares its data in some way: an API, an SDK, webhooks, a protocol such as Modbus, SNMP, BACnet, OPC UA or MQTT, a database, export files or email. We check your model before work starts.
Many vendors offer an API to their cloud platform. Where they do, we read the data from there; where they don't, we look for a local interface or an export.
Usually not. Collection only reads data. Sending commands back to a device is a separate step, done only if you ask for it.
Yes. Each reading is converted into the same format, so one dashboard or report can show a scale, a meter and a sensor side by side.

Cameras & video analytics events
Use IP cameras as a source of data: number plates, people counts, line crossing and camera health, received as events over ONVIF or the vendor's API.
Learn moreSNMP monitoring
Poll UPS units, PDUs, switches and environmental sensors over SNMP, receive their traps, and store every reading in one monitoring database.
Learn moreUPS & server room monitoring
Monitor UPS status, battery and load, PDUs, and server-room temperature and humidity, with alerts before a power or cooling problem becomes downtime.
Learn moreModbus, BACnet & OPC UA integration
Read energy meters, generators, PLCs, HVAC and building controllers over Modbus TCP/RTU, BACnet or OPC UA, convert raw values into readable units and keep their history.
Learn moreEmail and file alerts to events
Turn alert emails and export files from devices that offer nothing else into structured, de-duplicated events for your alert channel or ticketing system.
Learn moreAlert routing & escalation
Route each alert to the right person and channel by severity and time of day, escalate when nobody responds, and keep a log of every alert sent.
Learn moreMonitoring reports
Scheduled Excel and PDF reports from device data: incidents, limit breaches and trends for inspections, maintenance and capacity planning.
