Overcast Innovations helps building owners future proof their buildings. Their Cloud systems deliver flexibility by consolidating building systems (mechanical, electrical, fire protection, technology, etc.) into modular, manufactured, plug-and-play assemblies that can be moved, reused and updated over time.
Overcast Innovations was created to solve a building industry problem for the commercial office, medical office, and higher education verticals. Overcast Innovations attacks inefficiency and waste at every stage of the building design, construction and operations lifecycle. The main focus is on dramatically cutting costs through improved productivity. Clouds are modular, manufactured offsite and delivered in a plug-and-play system that reduce costs, save time, minimize coordination headaches and improve quality. The company is headquartered in Seattle, Washington.
Innovative solutions are emerging that promise to liberate building owners from these closed ecosystems. In particular, one buzzword is on everyone’s lips as a beacon of hope for “freedom from lock-in”: open source. But what does “open source” really mean in the context of building automation, and can it deliver on its promise of flexibility and owner control?
Today's tools have not been very user-centric for the people on the ground, so those people ignore them—and the hoped-for efficiency and data insights never materialize. Now that’s starting to change. Gamification, AI, and behavioral psychology principles influence users to return frequently, spend more time on the platform, and even enjoy doing so.
