Swidget

Swidget is an intelligent sensing and control platform that blends IoT hardware with AI to make buildings safer, healthier, and more efficient. The company sells smart outlets, switches, and sensor inserts that plug into existing electrical boxes. These devices feed data into a cloud dashboard that property managers, school administrators, and homeowners can use to monitor vacant properties, coordinate emergency responses, improve indoor air quality, and automate ventilation. The hardware works over Wi-Fi and requires no rewiring, which keeps installation simple.

What sets Swidget apart is how it applies AI to real-world problems. Its VacantView system uses AI-powered human detection on security camera feeds to spot intruders in empty buildings and send instant alerts. The Luminance emergency response solution gives teachers wearable panic buttons that trigger lockdowns, live camera feeds for first responders, and colored status lights in hallways. For everyday comfort, Swidget's ventilation solution pairs with Panasonic fans and ERVs to automatically balance airflow and meet code requirements. The air quality monitors track temperature, humidity, CO₂, particulate matter, and volatile organic compounds, and can automate exhaust fans when levels get too high.

Swidget is built for professionals who manage multiple properties or buildings where safety and efficiency matter. Property managers use VacantView to keep an eye on vacant rentals without expensive onsite visits. School administrators install Luminance to give staff and first responders better tools during emergencies. Builders and contractors can spec Swidget's smart-ready outlets and switches to add energy management and air quality features to new construction. Homeowners also use the system for basic smart home control, but the real value is in the commercial-grade monitoring and automation that doesn't require a full infrastructure overhaul.
