Customer-controlled IoT, built for the field

Every sensor. One resilient system.

Bricksoft unifies sensors, resilient connectivity, Spark, and expert support in one customer-controlled system—easier to launch, operate, and trust.

HotDrop, VoltDrop, and other sensors connect to both the LoRaWAN Gateway and Sentinel. Scout also connects through the customer's existing Wi-Fi access point. All three network devices connect to the Customer Platform, powered by Spark.
The architecture supports mixed sensor fleets and multiple network paths while keeping the operating platform and data under customer control.

Why Bricksoft

One team from the field device to the final answer.

Bricksoft combines purpose-built hardware, open device support, a customer-controlled Spark platform, and experienced operations. The result is a deployment that is easier to commission, manage, and improve.

From field to customer-owned data

Every layer, working as one.

Large sensor deployments fail in the gaps between hardware, networks, cloud services, data, and the people who operate them. We work across the whole system.

Start with the outcome

Practical help at every layer.

Engage Bricksoft for one hard problem or for the full lifecycle. The architecture stays understandable, portable, and under your control.

Spark

Your sensors can change. Your data should remain yours.

Spark gives large deployments a focused operating platform without turning the customer into a tenant inside somebody else's data business.

  • Customer-owned infrastructure and customer-controlled data
  • Open integration with the devices and systems that fit the job
  • Experienced platform management included in the first year, with extended support available

A real deployment profile

High-frequency data. Modest infrastructure.

Nearly 7,000 sensors reporting every minute create roughly 10.1 million readings per day. That is the raw reading volume of about 105,000 conventional 15-minute sensors.

One consolidated production environment is estimated below $600/month on DigitalOcean and has been observed below 20% cloud utilization—with substantial measured headroom remaining.

Illustrative deployment profile based on operating experience. The hosting estimate is for one consolidated production environment—not the customer's current total cloud spend. Equivalent AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud designs may cost materially more depending on managed services, egress, region, redundancy, and support. Validate each target architecture.

Hardware when hardware helps

Built for real deployments. Ready for mixed fleets.

Bricksoft supports HotDrop, VoltDrop, third-party LoRaWAN sensors, and existing devices alongside our own Scout submeters and Sentinel gateways.

Bricksoft Scout

A full submeter with patent-pending features.

Designed to make commissioning, data quality, and long-term serviceability better—not merely to produce another packet.

Bricksoft Sentinel

A LoRaWAN gateway that plans for imperfect networks.

Store-and-forward and resiliency features help preserve field data when connectivity is intermittent.

Wi-Fi Scout

Lower entry cost. No gateway required.

The same Scout foundation swaps the LoRa radio for Wi-Fi. An FCC pre-certified module lets us adapt custom sensors and features quickly—often targeting a 30–60 day turnaround after requirements are understood and feasibility is confirmed.
