The most crucial industries in the world are improving at a rapid pace, as businesses are spinning to incorporate smart connectivity into their operations. Traditional hardware now requires real-time monitoring, predictive capabilities and remote control functionality in order to keep up with increasing demands for efficiency, safety and sustainability. And in the midst of this change, a united and reliable IoT foundation has become an essential part of corporate strategy. Particle is here to satisfy this demand with an end-to-end IoT Platform-as-a-Service that empowers millions of connected devices spanning industries from industrial machines to energy to micromobility, heating, ventilation and emissions. By building and turning everyday hardware into adaptive systems of data-rich computing, Particle gives businesses the tools to quickly innovate, confidently deploy and build software into future-ready product ecosystems.

Reimagining IoT for Scalable Asset Tracking

Particle thinks about asset tracking being about more than just locating where things are. It adds information on how well things run and their condition and lets you control them from a distance. The system allows companies to run fleets. It can be used for scooters, tools for fields, or expensive things. It prevents theft, it reduces downtime and it enables companies to make better decisions from one view.

Redefining Industrial Equipment Monitoring Through Integration

Industrial manufacturers and equipment operators are dependent on tough and reliable monitoring to keep machines in operation.  Particle adds the ability for smart connections to these systems, providing workers with real-time information on things such as temperature, vibration and pressure and the number of consumables remaining.  This helps companies to avoid shutdowns, reduce expenses by cutting service costs, use machine-as-a-service, and manage equipment with data-driven performance.  By combining hardware, connectivity, cloud, and over-the-air updates in a single system, companies do not need to undertake difficult integration tasks and are able to arrive to market much faster.

Elevating Preventative and Predictive Maintenance with IoT

Preventative maintenance becomes much better when it uses continuous data from IoT. Particle-enabled systems are collecting signals such as vibration, voltage, and temperature and predicting trouble before it occurs. This reduces unplanned downtime, assists in sending the correct technician at the right time, and ensures that maintenance teams are well equipped. With additional data being collected, companies can then move toward predictive models, which utilize superior analysis to ensure that they use their equipment to its fullest capacity while reducing overall expenses.

Empowering Smart Energy Transformation with Connected Intelligence

Clean energy and modern energy utilities require stable, safe and flexible connections. Particle is assisting energy companies and uses IoT to monitor solar farms, smart meters, EV charging points, battery storage, and grid infrastructure. By having visibility of things in real-time, operators are able to identify issues, prevent energy theft, guess how energy assets will act and comply with evolving rules. Particle's global cellular network and safe cloud services ensure that everything continues to function, even in very distributed energy systems.

Driving the Future of Light Electric Vehicle Fleets

Light electric vehicles, in particular, have many things that depend on IoT intelligence merely to keep them safe but also efficient and up-to-date with rules in busy city areas. Particle assists makers and operators in building connected eBikes, scooters and last-mile delivery fleets equipped with geofencing, crash detection, remote locking and battery-saving capabilities. By helping to standardize fleet data and provide support for Mobility Data Specification requirements, Particle helps operators acquire city permits and operate compliant and high-performing fleets.

Strengthening Device Management through Unified Cloud and Connectivity Control

By any means, IoT is not just about connected hardware. It requires a central system to keep the devices safe, working great and easy to manage even when there are a ton of them. Particle makes this simple with one platform serving as your cloud to bring together connectivity, diagnostics and device monitoring in one space. Companies can monitor devices, networks, and events in real time. This allows teams to remediate issues from afar, minimize service delays and always ensure that everything keeps running. Meanwhile, the capabilities of Particle's OTA implementations, powered by EtherFlash, ensure rapid, safe firmware updates that secure vulnerabilities for field devices and provide for continuous innovation at scale.

Strengthening Global Operations with Security and Reliability

As the IoT deployment expands in the world, security and reliability are fundamental. Particle's secure-by-default architecture provides end-to-end encryption, GDPR, SOC II, CCPA compliance, and the ability for the customer to fully own and control their data. Remote diagnostics, continuous monitoring, and rapid OTA firmware updates safeguard devices against vulnerabilities and enable continuous improvement. This robust and compliant infrastructure aids in mission-critical operations in its industry.

Accelerating Product Development with Particle Studios

Many organizations have some outstanding ideas for products, but they don't have the engineering skills needed to bring those products to market in a big way. Particle Studios fills this void with end-to-end professional solutions such as prototype development, hardware and firmware engineering, design reviews, and manufacturing support. Such support enables companies to not only launch an IoT product faster but also reduces potential risk, gives better quality to customers, and ensures quality solutions from start to finish.

An Open Ecosystem Built for Continuous Innovation

Particle's ecosystem of APIs, documentation, integration partners and global developer community produces the power of continuous innovation and long-term adaptability. Businesses retain complete control over their data while benefiting from tools that enable devices to adapt to emerging technology with new features, improved performance and security. From startups to enterprise-scale organizations, Particle believes in letting innovation through openness, flexibility and developer-first design.
