A tech who never sleeps.
And never quits.
Every building has a small pile of quiet faults nobody sees. A stuck valve, a sensor off by two degrees, an override left on last winter. None of it trips an alarm. Smarkia finds them, names the likely cause, ranks them by impact, and pushes them straight into your work-order tool with a suggested part. Your best tech, everywhere, all the time.
Detect
Smarkia watches every meter, sensor, and setpoint for the drift, cycling, or offset that flags a fault, not just what trips an alarm.
Diagnose
The platform names the likely root cause, ranks the fault by dollar impact, and suggests the part or setting to check.
Dispatch
Faults push straight into your existing work-order tool with the diagnosis, the suggested part, and a procurement tie-in. Your team fixes, not investigates.
Why Smarkia
Why the virtual engineer earns its keep.
What is Smarkia virtual engineer?
Smarkia virtual engineer is automated fault detection that continuously watches every building for the quiet problems that waste energy. It surfaces issues like a stuck valve, a drifting sensor, or an override left on, so they get fixed instead of running for months.
How is this different from the alarms our BMS already has?
Alarms only fire when something clearly breaks. Smarkia catches the slow bleeders that never trip an alarm, the small faults that quietly cost energy every day, and flags them before they show up on the bill.
What kinds of faults can Smarkia catch?
Smarkia detects issues such as stuck or leaking valves, sensors reading off by a few degrees, schedules and overrides left in place, and equipment fighting itself, the faults that hurt most precisely because nobody sees them.
Does Smarkia just report faults, or help fix them?
Smarkia pinpoints the fault, explains its impact in energy and cost, and prioritizes it so your team knows exactly what to act on first. It turns a vague sense that something is off into a specific, ranked work item.
Do we need to add sensors for fault detection to work?
No. Smarkia works from the meters, BMS, and controls you already have, analyzing the signals they already produce. It finds hidden faults without a hardware project.
How quickly does Smarkia surface a new fault?
Smarkia monitors continuously, so a developing fault is flagged as the data drifts rather than at the next manual audit. Problems get caught in days, not at year-end.
How much energy do these hidden faults actually cost?
Individually small, these faults add up to a large share of avoidable waste because they run unnoticed for months. Catching them is often the fastest measured saving Smarkia delivers.
