This is like giving a commercial building’s heating and cooling system a smart autopilot. It watches how energy is used, learns building patterns (people coming and going, outside weather, peak loads), and automatically tunes HVAC settings to keep tenants comfortable while using less electricity.
Think of Cohesion as a digital command center for large office or mixed‑use buildings. It connects elevators, HVAC, security, access control, and occupancy data into one intelligent system so building operators can see what’s happening in real time and let software make many of the small adjustments people used to make manually.
Think of a large office building as a living body. In the past, the heating, cooling and lighting were like organs running on fixed schedules, whether people were there or not. AI turns the building into a “smart body” that can sense where people actually are, how hot or cold it is, what energy costs right now, and then automatically adjusts everything in real time to stay comfortable while using far less energy.
This is like a weather forecast, but for how much energy a building will use. It learns from past data about the building (design, materials, historical meter readings, weather) and then predicts future consumption so you can plan and optimize better.
Think of this as a building’s "autopilot for energy": it constantly watches how the building is being used, how hot or cold it is, what the weather and prices look like, and then automatically adjusts heating, cooling, lighting and other systems to keep people comfortable while using as little energy (and money) as possible.
Think of a smart building as a self-driving car for energy and operations: sensors constantly watch what’s happening (people, temperature, light, equipment), and AI decides when to heat, cool, light, or ventilate each space so you use the least energy without sacrificing comfort.
