inGeniti helps homes and businesses manage electrical equipment they already own
inGeniti’s OPTIMA platform combines external control units and software to help homes and businesses manage existing electrical equipment. It is also designed for utilities and aggregators that want to coordinate electricity use across sites. Its proposition is to add monitoring and control around equipment customers already own, rather than requiring each appliance to be replaced.
A control layer for equipment already in place
OPTIMA units are intended for equipment including heating and cooling systems, EV chargers and industrial assets. An app lets users see energy use and schedule or override devices; a separate portal is intended for utilities and aggregators.
That makes the same equipment relevant to two different decisions. A facility can use device-level information to manage its own electricity demand, while a utility program could seek temporary reductions across participating customers.
The U.S. Energy Information Administration describes demand response as programs that encourage customers to reduce electricity use temporarily in exchange for lower bills. Depending on the program, the customer or the power-system operator controls the reduction.
Selling the controls as a service
In March 2026, inGeniti announced multi-year subscriptions combining hardware, monitoring, software and grid integration. It said the arrangement was intended to let customers use an integrated service rather than buy and manage the hardware outright.
