What MUV Digital does

MUV Digital AG is a Swiss building technology digitization platform founded in August 2020 (originally as MUV Kollektiv) and headquartered at Schlagbaumstrasse 6, 8200 Schaffhausen, Switzerland. The company provides a manufacturer-agnostic (herstellerneutral) IoT edge-to-cloud platform that connects heterogeneous building technology systems — heating, ventilation, air conditioning, refrigeration, and sanitation (HLKKS) — regardless of underlying protocol (BACnet/IP, MS/TP, Modbus TCP/RTU, LoRaWAN, Digital/Analog I/O) to a unified cloud data layer. MUV Digital serves HLKKS service companies, building owners and operators, system integrators and OEMs, and engineering firms across Switzerland and the broader DACH region, with named enterprise customers including Flughafen Zürich AG, Spitäler Schaffhausen, Swiss Prime Site Solutions, SH POWER, Calanda Kälte AG, HSK AG, and Arnold Produkte AG.

The product portfolio follows a three-stage architecture — Connect (MUV Edge hardware gateways), Understand (MUV App dashboard visualization), and Act (MUV AIgents and MUV Insights for AI-powered optimization). MUV Insights uses proprietary AI language models ("Made in Schaffhausen") that read manuals, PDFs, and Excel files to automatically generate digital twins, extract setpoints and control logic, and produce weekly optimization reports, with disclosed customer outcomes of 15–25% energy savings, 70% time savings on manual work at Zurich Airport, and 4x more plants per technician at Calanda Kälte.

The company operates a hybrid hardware-plus-subscription revenue model with a CHF 2,000 all-inclusive risk-free MUV Pilot as the entry point, MUV Edge Pro (CHF 599) or Ultra (CHF 999) one-time hardware purchases, and recurring subscriptions including MUV Connect at CHF 360/year, MUV Connect VPN at CHF 435/year, and MUV Ops Basic/Pro at CHF 500–1,000/year. MUV Digital sells primarily through direct sales with online consultation booking, supplemented by a white-label / OEM channel (exemplified by Calanda Kälte's "Calanda Digital" brand) and a 2025-launched Self-Service Early Access tier with API access for system integrators. The company is privately held by four co-founders — Marco Malaguti, Gzim Ukshini, Timo Visscher, and Raphael Nambiar — with no disclosed external institutional investment.

Core offering

MUV Digital provides a manufacturer-agnostic IoT platform for digitizing building technology (HVAC, refrigeration, ventilation, sanitation). The offering combines proprietary edge hardware (MUV Edge Pro/Ultra) with cloud aggregation, remote monitoring (MUV Ops), and AI-powered optimization (MUV Insights) to standardize heterogeneous building systems data, enable remote control, and deliver energy and operational savings.

Product overview

MUV Digital offers a platform-plus-modules architecture consisting of three core products: MUV Connect (hardware gateway), MUV Ops (remote operations management), and MUV Insights (AI-powered optimization). The product suite follows a three-stage approach: Verbinden (Connect - data collection and standardization via MUV Edge), Verstehen (Understand - MUV App dashboard visualization), and Handeln (Act - MUV AIgents and Insights). Entry point is MUV Pilot for risk-free testing, with add-ons including MUV Sensoren and cloud-based data storage and analysis via MUV Cloud.

Direct peers

• Switch Automation: Switch Automation provides a building analytics SaaS that aggregates data from disparate building systems and turns it into performance insights and energy savings — a very comparable data-aggregation-and-AI play for owners and operators of commercial real estate.
• Facilio: Facilio is a SaaS platform for building operations and maintenance that unifies equipment data, alarms, and analytics across multiple vendors, with energy optimisation AI — a comparable offering for commercial real estate portfolios seeking a single-pane-of-glass over heterogeneous building systems.
• BrainBox AI: BrainBox AI uses proprietary AI to optimise HVAC and building energy performance in commercial real estate, targeting 10–40% energy reduction without replacing existing BMS hardware — a very similar positioning to MUV Digital's manufacturer-agnostic + AI optimisation thesis.
• ENTOUCH Controls: ENTOUCH offers IoT-based energy management for HVAC and lighting, combining edge hardware, cloud monitoring, and AI-driven optimisation for multi-site commercial customers — overlapping directly with MUV's target use cases and customer segments.
• KODE Labs: KODE Labs provides a vendor-neutral building data and operations platform that pulls together disparate BMS/IoT systems and exposes them through a unified smart-building operating system, directly paralleling MUV's protocol-aggregation cloud proposition.
• PassiveLogic: PassiveLogic builds autonomous-building control using edge compute and AI, enabling real-time optimisation across heterogeneous BMS equipment — a comparable edge-AI approach for vendor-neutral building automation that competes in the same European/North American smart-building market.
• Buildings IOT: Buildings IOT is a system integrator and managed-services provider that combines proprietary IoT gateways, cloud software, and analytics for smart buildings — closely matching MUV's blend of hardware edge gateway, protocol translation, and remote-monitoring service to building owners.
• 75F: 75F offers a wireless IoT sensor + cloud platform for HVAC and building automation targeting service companies and building owners, with proprietary hardware gateways and a subscription software layer directly analogous to MUV Connect + MUV Ops.

Broad incumbents

• Siemens Smart Infrastructure (Building Technologies): Siemens Building Technologies (part of Smart Infrastructure) sells Desigo CC and related BMS platforms worldwide, is increasingly adding cloud and AI optimisation features, and represents the dominant incumbent that MUV's manufacturer-agnostic positioning is implicitly positioned against in the Swiss market.
• GridPoint: GridPoint is a more established energy and asset management platform that combines IoT, analytics, and optimisation across HVAC, lighting, and refrigeration for multi-site enterprises — overlapping with MUV's value proposition but addressing a broader portfolio of equipment and a larger customer base.
