Squeeze More Performance Out of Equipment You Already Have Using AI-agents
Last week we introduced the Automated Buildings partnership with facil.ai
What can facil.ai do for the readers of AB?
The facil AI-agents are the easiest and most effective way to optimize existing systems.
Our library of plug-and-play facil software gateways integrate directly into any BMS to constantly fine-tune system performance resulting in drastically reduced energy use up to 50% and improved performance by up to 30%.
Each AI-agent is a virtual facilities manager that never takes a break—spending every minute making the system work as efficiently as possible. This gives the real on-site team the time to focus on other projects and problems, all while delivering truly impressive operational cost savings.
The best part is this is no risk system optimization. There are no upfront costs, no holes in the firewall, and no change management required.
How to Get Started
We have a library of AI-agents to choose from (and more in development):
| Central Plant Chiller Optimization | Portfolio Rooftop Units (RTUs) | Portfolio Air-Handling and Mechanical Units (AHUs) | |
| Set up Time | 10 minutes | Less than 10 minutes | Less than 10 minutes |
| AI – learning period | 2 weeks | 2 weeks | 2 weeks |
| OpEx Pricing | $1 USD per ton (rated capacity) of chiller/mo. | $10 USD per RTU/mo. | Half a penny ($0.05 USD) per square foot of building (HVAC conditioned) space/mo. |
| CapEx Pricing | $0 | $0 | $0 |
Each AI-agent has is able to scale to any HVAC equipment count, demonstrating 50% energy savings and 40% improved capacity (performance).
There is no training required. The AI-agent is autonomous, working in the background.
The the AI-agents work with existing BMS. There is NO additional hardware required. Keep your CapEx budgets for something else.
Company Bio
facil.ai is a cloud-based software employing AI – agents specifically created for equipment optimization and energy savings in building operations. The facil AI-agents are easy to implement, transparent, and secure. These agents use existing equipment to start saving operational expenses —no need for new sensors or hardware— making the return on investment nearly immediate. Additionally, with the help of the AI babysitting systems, the people running a building can use their time for real problems like maintenance and complaints.
An AI-agent can make equipment more efficient, more precise, more powerful, and longer lasting. With facil.ai there are no more excuses.
