Enano provides an ultra‑low‑power silicon chip that integrates a Bluetooth LE 5.0 radio, power‑management unit, and temperature/humidity sensor onto a single die. The chip enables continuous BLE advertising and environmental monitoring with sub‑µA standby draw, supporting multi‑year battery life for millions of active tags used in logistics, equipment, and IoT asset tracking. Enano sells the chips and integration services directly to OEMs and supply‑chain solution providers.

Problem
Enterprises that manage large inventories of containers, equipment, or IoT devices struggle with existing tracking solutions that rely on high‑power radios, separate sensor modules, or battery‑intensive designs, leading to frequent maintenance, limited coverage, and prohibitive cost when scaling to millions of assets.
Solution
Enano delivers a proprietary ultra‑low‑power silicon platform that integrates a Bluetooth LE radio, power‑management unit, and environmental sensor onto a single die. The chip’s microamp‑scale current draw enables active tags that continuously broadcast their location and temperature data without requiring frequent battery replacement. By consolidating functionality into one package, the solution reduces bill‑of‑materials cost, simplifies PCB assembly, and supports thin, lightweight form factors suitable for a wide range of assets. Continuous BLE advertising provides near‑100 % coverage, eliminating missed scans that plague passive RFID systems. The architecture is designed for mass production, allowing manufacturers to deploy millions of tags while maintaining reliable performance and long‑term battery life. Collected data can be streamed to standard Bluetooth gateways and processed in downstream logistics or IoT platforms.
Target Audience
Primary customers are hardware OEMs, logistics and supply‑chain solution providers, and enterprises that require large‑scale, real‑time asset visibility across containers, equipment, or IoT devices.
