Use your IoT data and energy assets
to boost your commercial
and operational success
A vertical integrated modular platform
that combines IoT and energy assets
with your commercial and operational business
in one scalable cloud solution
Meet byNeuron, our integrated modular cloud platform
Cloud platform
byNeuron is a unique vertically integrated and modular #energytech and #proptech platform. It is a modern ERP and IoT solution for Energy and Real Estate companies. But modules can also be implemented separately and integrate seamless with your existing application landscape
Energy and Real Estate ERP
The platform is targeted towards the energy and real estate market and supports different functional domains: from commercial operations (product management, pricing and quoting, contract fulfilment) to back-office operations (invoicing, meter data management) and market messaging for energy suppliers.
byNeuron supports commodity (electricity, gas, water, heat…) and non-commodity products and services (solar panels, maintenance services…) as well.
IoT and timeseries solution
Next to the ERP modules, byNeuron can actively manage and operate energy assets on 1 or multiple sites or buildings.
Using our IoT module, timeseries data can be handled in one and the same platform creating new opportunities for both Energy and Real Estate companies.
