Pricing
Every system is different, but here are typical starting points. We're flexible on payment structure and can work with what makes sense for your situation.
System starting points
API / Dashboard Integration
Software-only integration with your existing systems. No new physical hardware required — we connect to what you already have.
- Connect to existing smart meters or sensors
- API integration with vendor portals
- Custom dashboard setup
- Automated reporting included
Small System
A few sensors for focused monitoring. A DIY installation option is available to reduce costs — we guide you through it remotely.
- 2–5 sensors or monitoring points
- WiFi or Bluetooth connectivity
- Dashboard, alerts, and basic reporting

LoRaWAN System
Long-range wireless for remote or spread-out sites. A single gateway covers up to 10km+ and supports unlimited sensors.
- LoRa gateway (once-off ~R5,000)
- Multiple LoRaWAN sensors
- 10km+ range — works without WiFi or cellular at sensor
- Ideal for farms, game lodges, large properties
- Fully scalable — add sensors over time
Annual subscription — hosting, storage & reporting
Covers cloud hosting, data storage, automated monthly reports, and basic support. Alternatively, we can structure payment differently depending on your needs — we're flexible on how this works.
What affects the price?
- Number of sensors or monitoring points
- Type of connectivity (WiFi, LoRa, cellular, wired)
- Distance between sensors and gateway requirements

Self-installation option
For small systems, you can install sensors yourself with our guidance. This significantly reduces costs by eliminating site visit fees and installation labour.
We provide detailed instructions, remote support during installation, and can troubleshoot any issues. Most small setups can be completed in a few hours with basic tools.
No lock-in
We use open-source software and standard hardware. You're not tied to a proprietary platform — your data is yours, and you're free to add to or change the system over time.
If your needs change, we can adapt the system. If you ever want to take over management yourself, we can hand it over cleanly.
