What Enertiv does

Enertiv is a New York-based software and data platform that serves commercial real estate (CRE) owners, operators, REITs, and asset managers with portfolio-scale sustainability reporting and asset-level decarbonization execution. The platform is organized around three core modules — Report (ESG/sustainability reporting with bidirectional Energy Star Portfolio Manager integration and a 100% utility-data-coverage guarantee), Decarbonize (carbon planning combining AI recommendations with physical on-site equipment surveys), and Optimize (real-time equipment monitoring, fault detection and diagnostics, and ROI-ranked operational insights) — supplemented by Shadow Metering hardware that captures tenant-controlled utility data via cellular-connected sensors, plus add-on modules for tenant utility billing, maintenance management, LEED certification support, and a free portfolio diagnostic tool used as a top-of-funnel lead generator.

Underlying technology combines AI-powered analytics with on-site field data collection: dedicated sensors on electrical panels, water pipes, and gas meters transmit 15-minute-interval readings over a dedicated MVNO cellular network; on-site survey teams capture equipment nameplate photos processed into structured inventory data; and the platform integrates with property management systems (Yardi, MRI) and partners with Voltus for demand response and Energy CX for energy procurement. Security architecture runs on AWS with TLS/HTTPS, SHA-2 512-bit certificates, and PBKDF2 password hashing.

The business model is primarily multi-year SaaS subscription revenue, augmented by hardware sales for shadow metering deployments and transaction fees on demand response enrollment and energy procurement savings. Pricing is quote-based and varies by portfolio size and module selection. Enertiv sells directly through an enterprise field-sales motion targeting large CRE portfolios (Starwood Capital Group, Barings, Crow Holdings, LXP Industrial Trust, Mortenson, Principal Asset Management, and others), reporting 100+ clients and 300M+ sq ft deployed across North America, with cumulative funding of $16.8M and $5.7M ARR as of 2024.

Revenue model

1. SaaS Subscription - Platform Access: Annual or multi-year subscription for access to Enertiv's sustainability reporting and decarbonization platform. Pricing varies by portfolio size and modules selected (reporting, optimization, decarbonization, tenant billing, maintenance).
2. Shadow Metering Hardware: Revenue from deployment of shadow metering hardware (sensors, meters) installed across client portfolios. Hardware is non-proprietary and can be deployed across electricity, water, and gas utilities.
3. Energy Procurement Optimization: Through partnership with Energy CX, Enertiv identifies better energy procurement opportunities and earns referral/transaction fees when clients realize savings (e.g., $206,718 annual savings identified at a single 900,000 sq ft office building).
4. Demand Response Revenue Share: Identifying and enrolling clients in demand response programs where utilities pay tenants/landlords for reducing consumption during peak demand events. Five and six figure payments for enrollment and compliance.

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Direct peers

• Measurabl: Direct competitor in CRE ESG/sustainability reporting and decarbonization. Enertiv's Starwood case study explicitly displaced Measurabl due to data quality issues, making it the closest head-to-head comparable.
• Carbon Lighthouse: CRE-focused decarbonization platform combining engineering analysis with operational data. Targets similar institutional owners and competes directly with Enertiv's Decarbonize module.
• Aquicore: Building operations and sustainability platform for CRE owners; offers utility data capture, benchmarking, and asset performance monitoring comparable to Enertiv's Optimize and Report modules.
• Verdigris Technologies: AI-powered building energy monitoring with proprietary hardware sensors. Closely comparable to Enertiv's shadow metering + real-time equipment monitoring stack.
• GridPoint: Energy management platform combining on-site hardware, submetering, and analytics for commercial buildings. Targets similar facility operations and sustainability buyers.
• 75F: IoT-based building automation and energy management with cloud analytics and sensor hardware. Overlaps with Enertiv's fault detection and HVAC optimization capabilities.
• KGS Buildings: Building analytics and fault detection diagnostics platform serving commercial real estate owners. Comparable to Enertiv's Optimize module.

Broad incumbents

• Yardi: Dominant CRE property management software suite; integrated partner with Enertiv but a potential competitive threat as Yardi expands sustainability functionality within its broader platform.
• MRI Software: Major CRE property management platform; Enertiv integrates with MRI today, but MRI could add native ESG/sustainability features that compete with Enertiv's reporting layer.
• Honeywell Forge: Enterprise building energy management and analytics suite from a global industrial incumbent. Overlaps with Enertiv's real-time monitoring and decarbonization capabilities at larger enterprise accounts.
