Core Features

Built for real firmware and production device fleets.

Device identity and access

Bootstrap devices with one-time tokens, issue per-device MQTT credentials, and restrict access with device-scoped topics and OTA protection.

Telemetry and events

Collect device data and status events in a backend designed for connected hardware and real operational visibility.

OTA firmware updates

Assign firmware, expose secure manifests, and deliver updates without rebuilding your backend stack.

Fleet overview

Track online state, signal quality, firmware versions, and device health across deployed units.

Commands and actions

Send commands, reboot devices, reset Wi-Fi, and run day-to-day operations from one control surface.

API-ready architecture

Keep device communication isolated from dashboards and integrations so applications can evolve independently.

How it works

F

Firmware

Start with firmware that includes your device setup.

B

Bootstrap

The device receives secure access for its first connection.

C

Connect

Devices connect, send data, and receive events in the cloud.

O

Operate

Monitor health, control devices, and review activity.

U

Update

Deliver firmware updates remotely and track progress.

Built for developers

Integrate with your firmware using simple methods for telemetry, events, and command handling.

Example usage 

device.sendTelemetry({
  temp: 24.7,
  rssi: -61,
  firmware: "1.2.0"
});

device.onCommand((cmd) => {
  // handle command
});
