WellStat has announced an integration with PointGrab Ltd., an AI-powered occupancy sensing data platform. The combined solution connects real-time human occupancy data directly to HVAC, ventilation, and grid optimisation systems, replacing the static schedules that have driven unnecessary energy waste in commercial buildings.
The timing reflects four pressures converging on commercial real estate simultaneously: surging HVAC operating costs, unpredictable hybrid occupancy patterns that render fixed schedules obsolete, heightened tenant expectations around indoor air quality, and growing utility incentives for intelligent demand response participation. Together, these pressures have created an urgent need for buildings that can adapt in real time to how spaces are used.
Vivek Sanan, Chief Product Officer, WellStat, said, “Buildings should respond to people, not schedules. This integration closes the loop between occupancy data and operational action, not as a dashboard feature, but as a live control layer that adjusts ventilation, heating, and energy systems in real time based on where people are. That is a fundamentally different standard of performance.”
Amir EINAV, CEO, PointGrab, said, “Occupancy sensing has historically stopped at the dashboard, useful for space planning, invisible to the building itself. By integrating directly with WellStat, our data moves from insight to action: it changes what the HVAC system does, how the ventilation responds, and how a building performs during a grid event. That is the outcome our customers have been asking for.”
