The startup develops wireless, battery-powered sensors that utilize the LoRa network to monitor multi-family buildings for incidents such as leaks or fires. By providing immediate notifications, the sensors enable property managers and residents to respond quickly, minimizing potential damage and financial losses.

Problem
Undetected leaks, extreme temperatures, and unauthorized movement of assets in multi-family and commercial buildings can lead to significant property damage, increased operational costs, and potential liability issues. Traditional monitoring methods often lack the real-time insights needed for proactive intervention.
Solution
Perceptive Things offers a suite of wireless, battery-powered sensors and a managed platform that provides real-time monitoring of critical building conditions. The sensors utilize a long-range wireless network to detect water leaks, monitor ambient temperature and humidity, and track asset movement. When incidents occur or pre-set thresholds are exceeded, the system sends instant alerts via text message, email, or automated voice call, enabling property managers and staff to respond quickly and minimize potential damage. The platform is designed for ease of use, allowing users to manage one property or an entire portfolio through a straightforward interface, without relying on existing building or tenant WiFi networks.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes property managers, building owners, and facility managers of multi-family and commercial buildings seeking to reduce property damage, minimize operational costs, and improve tenant satisfaction.
