Start your equipment at the right time.
Your start schedules are fixed and fire at “worst case”. Foobot learns each building's inertia and computes, every night, the ideal start time — comfort reached right at opening, without the wasted pre-heating hours.
Your equipment starts too early, every single day.
Most BMS restart HVAC on a fixed schedule, set for the worst winter case years ago. The result: hours of heating or cooling before occupants even arrive — energy wasted every morning.
Three steps to start at just the right moment.
Connect the BMS
Secure connection to a few points of your existing BMS. No hardware to change, no operational downtime.
Learn the inertia
The AI models the thermal inertia of each zone from your histories, the weather and occupancy schedules.
Start at the right time
Every night, Foobot computes the ideal start time to reach comfort right at opening — neither too early nor too late.
Savings from the very first week.
“Simply by shifting the start time, we cut nearly two hours of heating every morning — without anyone noticing on the comfort side.”
Why begin with optimal start?
It's the fastest and lowest-risk HVAC optimisation gain: a few BMS points are enough, comfort stays guaranteed, and you measure the savings within the first days.
Fast to deploy
Operational in a few days, with no work and no operational interruption.
No risk to comfort
Comfort at opening stays guaranteed; the AI only delays the needless start.
Immediate gain
Runtime hours avoided, measurable from the very first week.
A stepping stone to full control
Optimal start is the first building block. Move on to continuous AI HVAC control next.
