Revert Technologies

What Revert Technologies does

Revert Technologies (legal entity ReVert Technologies, Inc., Delaware) is a private energy-technology company headquartered at 770 Chapel St, New Haven, Connecticut, that builds AI-powered plug load management systems for commercial facilities. Founded in 2022 via a Kickstarter campaign for the patented Teak Smart Cube and rebranded to Revert Technologies in 2024, the company sells third-generation RVT-003 smart plugs that connect via LoRaWAN (through IotaComm's Delphi360 platform) or Wi-Fi, learn per-equipment usage patterns, and automatically schedule shutdowns to eliminate phantom load — the electricity wasted by equipment left powered during off-hours. Each plug is individually calibrated to ±0.5% power metering accuracy under ANSI C12.1-2024 Class 0.5, the same standard as building electric meters, and carries UL Listed and FCC certifications.

The company targets schools, universities, hotels, gyms, offices, and municipalities. Named customers include Cornell University, Stony Brook University, Ithaca College, NYC Department of Education, NYC/EDC, Kingswood Oxford, ActivCare, Days Inn, Climatehaven, Artyc, Arcturus, and UrbanPromise. Revert's go-to-market combines a direct sales motion with an interactive website quote estimator that calculates estimated savings by sector and operating hours, a 50-plug Plug Load Pilot Kit for ROI validation, and an emerging channel partner program. Revenue is generated through a performance-based pricing model: customers pay a one-time setup fee plus a monthly subscription derived from a fraction of verified energy savings over a fixed term, with payback typically achieved in 3-18 months. The July 2025 strategic partnership with IotaComm extends the deployment model into municipal and large-scale enterprise settings by leveraging LoRaWAN connectivity that bypasses customer IT and cybersecurity review cycles.

Revert has raised approximately $1.09 million of a $2.2 million exempt securities offering filed with the SEC in June 2024, with disclosed investors including the Maine Venture Fund and Synetro Group, and completed the Techstars accelerator in 2022. Headcount remains small (1-10 employees), no institutional venture capital backing is disclosed, and revenue figures are not publicly reported.

Revenue model

1. Hardware + Software Subscription (Performance-Based): Customers do not buy the Revert Smart Plugs or LoRaWAN gateway as standalone items. Instead, they pay a one-time setup fee and a monthly subscription derived from a fraction of the total recurring savings for a fixed term. This aligns incentives with performance—Revert makes money when customers save money. Payback periods range from as little as 3 months to generally no more than 18 months.
2. Pilot Program: The Revert Plug Load Pilot Kit includes 1 year pre-paid subscription, 50 assorted and preconfigured smart plugs, and IoT protocol tailored to facility needs for validating savings before full deployment.
3. Professional Services: For small teams with limited staff, Revert provides installation services in addition to the self-service plug-and-play option.

Core offering

Revert Technologies sells AI-powered smart plugs (RVT-003 series) and a cloud-based plug load management platform that automatically learns equipment usage patterns and creates shutdown schedules to eliminate phantom load in commercial facilities. Customers do not purchase hardware separately; they pay a one-time setup fee plus a monthly subscription tied to a fraction of verified energy savings, with LoRaWAN or Wi-Fi connectivity and revenue-grade metering accuracy (ANSI C12.1-2024 class 0.5).

Product overview

Revert Technologies offers a unified plug load management system built around AI-powered smart hardware (Revert Smart Plugs, RVT-003 series) and a cloud-connected mobile/web platform. The core RVT-003 smart plugs connect via LoRaWan (powered by IotaComm Delphi360) or Wi-Fi, automatically learning equipment usage patterns to create shutdown schedules that eliminate phantom load and reduce energy costs by up to 30%. The companion Revert Mobile and Web Platforms provide remote control, real-time analytics, impact reporting, and ESG metrics. A Plug Load Pilot Kit (50 plugs + 1-year subscription) enables organizations to validate savings before full deployment. The company also maintains legacy residential (Teak Smart Cube) and earlier commercial (Acorn Smart Plug) products under its unified brand. All plugs are UL Listed, FCC Certified, and calibrated to revenue-grade ANSI C12.1-2024 class 0.5 accuracy standards.
