Turn hidden energy waste
into measurable savings.

No. Ento connects directly to your utility meter data through APIs and data hubs — no new hardware, sensors, or on-site installation required. You get full portfolio visibility from day one using the consumption data you're already paying for. If you want to go deeper later (e.g., indoor climate sensors or BMS integration), you can layer those in over time, but they're never a prerequisite.

Most customers are up and running within hours or a few days. Because Ento doesn't require hardware installation, onboarding is as simple as connecting your utility data. Once connected, the platform automatically creates your sites, syncs weather data, and starts building consumption models — so you can see prioritized insights almost immediately.

Every alert is generated by machine learning models that normalize for weather, calendar patterns, holidays, and occupancy — so you're only flagged when consumption genuinely deviates from what's expected. Each alert comes with an estimated energy and cost impact, AI-generated root cause suggestions with probability scores, and clear investigation steps. The result is fewer, more meaningful alerts that point to real waste — not noise.

Ento uses the International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (IPMVP) to verify savings. When you register an energy efficiency project, the platform builds a counterfactual model of what your consumption would have been without the intervention, based on pre-project data, weather, and calendar patterns. It then compares actual post-project consumption against this baseline and reports verified savings in kWh, CO₂, and cost — complete with confidence intervals so you know the precision of the result.

Most customers see payback within three to six months. Because Ento pinpoints the highest-impact waste across your portfolio — and prioritizes the top 10% of sites driving 80% of savings — it's common for a single fix identified by the platform to cover the cost of your subscription.

Traditional EMS platforms are great at collecting data and showing dashboards, but most leave the hard part to you: figuring out what to act on, when, and proving it worked. Ento sits on top of your existing infrastructure and turns that data into prioritized, actionable insights. It tells you which buildings to focus on first, what's likely causing the waste, and — once you've acted — verifies the savings automatically. Think of it as the intelligence layer that makes your current EMS investment work harder.

Absolutely. Ento is built for organizations managing anywhere from 50 to over 1,000 buildings across dispersed locations. The platform automatically benchmarks sites against each other, surfaces the top priorities across your entire portfolio, and lets you triage at scale — so you don't have to manually review every building. Customers like municipalities and national retail chains use Ento to manage hundreds of sites from a single dashboard.
