Revenue model

1. SaaS Platform Subscription: Lowit generates revenue through subscription-based access to its energy performance management SaaS platform. The platform covers portfolio-level energy auditing, OPERAT reporting automation, investment scenario modeling, and action plan tracking. Pricing is likely structured per building or per portfolio, with enterprise/sector-specific tiers. No freemium model is indicated; the presence of mandatory expert demos suggests a consultative, quote-based sales motion.

Core offering

Lowit provides a SaaS decision-support platform for energy performance management of French tertiary building portfolios. The platform automates OPERAT regulatory reporting, simulates investment scenarios across a building portfolio, and tracks energy consumption trajectories against Décret Tertiaire targets (-40% by 2030, -50% by 2040, -60% by 2050). It is built around four modules — Investment Strategy, Décret Tertiaire compliance, Energy Audits, and Action Follow-up — and serves French municipalities, public housing providers, energy syndicates, and private tertiary operators.

Product overview

Lowit is a unified SaaS decision-support platform designed for energy transition management of French tertiary (commercial and public) building portfolios. The core offering consists of four integrated modules — Stratégie d'investissement (Investment Strategy), Décret Tertiaire, Audits énergétiques (Energy Audits), and Suivi des actions (Action Follow-up) — which collectively support the full compliance lifecycle: from portfolio-wide energy audits, through multi-year scenario planning and investment optimization, to annual OPERAT declaration automation and ongoing trajectory monitoring. The platform is designed to help public entities (local authorities, public housing providers) and private operators manage compliance with the French Tertiary Decree (Éco Énergie Tertiaire). Accompanying white papers on OPERAT declaration errors and the Décret Tertiary regulatory framework supplement the software modules.

Includes automatic Crelat vs Cabs method comparison and modulation dossier support.
• Audits énergétiques (Energy Audits) Fast and standardized energy audit module providing a comprehensive understanding of building energy consumption patterns and delivering precise recommendations for improving real estate assets. Serves building owners and operators needing Décret Tertiaire-compliant energy audits.

Direct peers

• EcoAct: France-based climate strategy and carbon advisory firm (now part of Accenture) offering decarbonization roadmaps, carbon accounting, and regulatory transition support. Comparable on the climate strategy/regulatory advisory axis even though delivery is more services-heavy than SaaS.
• Positiv: French energy management platform focused on building portfolio decarbonization and Décret Tertiaire compliance. Closely comparable in target customer (collectivités, bailleurs), product module structure, and French regulatory specialization.
• Carbone 4: Independent French climate consulting firm specializing in decarbonization strategy, sectoral pathways, and climate transition planning for corporates and public actors. Comparable in the climate strategy advisory layer that underlies Lowit's investment optimization logic.
• Metrikem: French SaaS for energy performance and regulatory compliance in building portfolios. Direct peer in tertiary building energy tracking, OPERAT-style reporting, and decarbonization planning.
• Deepki: French SaaS platform for energy performance management of real estate portfolios, with deep regulatory and ESG reporting capabilities. Direct competitor to Lowit in the French tertiary building compliance space, also serving asset managers, public sector, and corporates.

Emerging players

• Sweep: Carbon and ESG data management platform for corporates with decarbonization workflow and target-tracking features. Partial overlap on the regulatory disclosure / decarbonization planning side, but broader ESG focus and less specialized in French tertiary building regulation.
• Greenly: Carbon accounting SaaS platform primarily serving SMEs and mid-market corporates. Adjacent on Scope 1–3 emissions tracking and reduction planning, but not specialized in the French tertiary building compliance niche Lowit occupies.

Broad incumbents

• Schneider Electric (EcoStruxure): Global energy management and automation major whose EcoStruxure platform covers building energy management, BMS, and increasingly regulatory/compliance reporting. Broad incumbent with the customer scale and capital to bundle Décret Tertiaire-style compliance into a wider energy stack.
• ENGIE Solutions: Major French and European energy services player with a building services and energy performance offer that touches tertiary energy management, OPERAT-style reporting, and renovation services. Comparable as a broad incumbent that could absorb specialist compliance functionality.

Regional players

• EnerBee: French building energy performance and compliance services provider focused on public sector and tertiary building owners. Comparable in the same geographic and customer niche as Lowit, though typically more services-led than product-led.
