Qualify the building
Is the site likely to deliver meaningful savings?
Unlock better performance from your existing buildings
EcoAI helps building owners identify where continuous optimisation can reduce HVAC energy, lower operating costs and deliver measurable carbon savings — using the BMS infrastructure already in place.
We start by assessing whether a building is likely to deliver a compelling business case. Where the opportunity is strong, myCoreAI provides continuous HVAC optimisation every 15 minutes while the existing BMS remains the control system.

Business case first
We start with the business case
EcoAI does not begin by asking whether AI can be installed. We begin by asking whether your building is likely to benefit. Our process helps qualify the opportunity, estimate potential savings, assess commercial return and then confirm technical suitability.
Build the commercial case
What level of energy, cost and carbon reduction could be achievable?
Confirm technical suitability
Can optimisation be integrated efficiently with the existing BMS?
Continuous optimisation
From insight to action
Energy data can show where waste exists. The harder challenge is turning that insight into continuous action as weather, occupancy and building behaviour change.
Connect it. Optimise it. Verify it continuously.
EcoAI works with the existing BMS to keep selected HVAC control parameters optimised every 15 minutes within agreed comfort and operational limits.
That means performance improvements are not dependent on repeated manual tuning, extra site visits or a permanent increase in engineering workload.
Insight shows the opportunity. EcoAI keeps acting on it — delivering value every 15 minutes, 24/7.

Always-on optimisation
Could your engineer do this?
Yes — if they could optimise your building every 15 minutes, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
A skilled engineer can tune a building, improve performance and identify wasted energy.
But buildings do not stand still. Weather changes. Occupancy changes. System behaviour changes. Comfort demand changes.
Doing that manually, around the clock, would be impractical — and extremely costly.
EcoAI supports the engineer by adding a 24/7 optimisation layer to your existing BMS. It helps reduce wasted HVAC energy while maintaining comfort and using the infrastructure already in place — with verified savings expected to exceed the annual service cost.
AI + existing BMS
What does the AI add beyond the BMS?
Your BMS remains the control system. It operates the plant, applies local control logic and keeps the building running. EcoAI adds the optimisation intelligence above it.
The BMS controls
The existing BMS continues to operate the building’s HVAC systems, safety functions, schedules and local control loops. EcoAI does not replace or bypass it.
myCoreAI predicts and optimises
myCoreAI learns how the building responds to weather, occupancy and control changes, then adjusts selected HVAC setpoints every 15 minutes within agreed comfort and operational limits. This can help exploit thermal inertia, pre-heat or pre-cool ahead of demand where appropriate, and smooth unnecessary demand peaks.
EcoAI delivers and verifies
EcoAI configures the optimisation, supports the client journey and provides clear reporting so estates, sustainability, finance and leadership teams can see the impact.
The BMS runs the building. myCoreAI continuously optimises how the building is asked to run. EcoAI delivers the UK implementation and verified savings journey.

Autonomous optimisation through existing BMS infrastructure
EcoAI provides a practical implementation model designed for existing buildings, using live BMS data, predictive modelling and selected setpoint optimisation to deliver savings while keeping the existing control system in place.
myCoreAI does not replace the BMS, FM team or controls contractor. It works as a continuous optimisation layer above the existing control system.
01
Works with existing systems
myCoreAI connects to existing BMS infrastructure and optimises selected HVAC setpoints. The building’s own controllers, safety functions and local control logic remain in place.
02
Predicts and optimises continuously
A building-specific digital model helps predict how the building will respond to weather, occupancy and control changes, allowing myCoreAI to optimise every 15 minutes.
03
Reports measurable outcomes
Structured reporting shows energy, cost, carbon and comfort outcomes clearly for estates, finance, sustainability and leadership teams.
Deeper commercial detail
The EcoAI advantage
A clearer view of the commercial case for owners and operators — from no-CapEx adoption and avoided infrastructure change to verified savings, stronger NOI and portfolio-scale rollout.
Where EcoAI works
Commercial buildings, universities and complex estates
EcoAI is designed for existing buildings with meaningful HVAC loads, suitable BMS infrastructure and a clear need to reduce energy while maintaining comfort.
Commercial buildings and offices
For offices, multi-let buildings, landlords, managing agents, asset managers and property portfolios where HVAC energy, comfort and reporting all matter.
Universities and campus estates
For complex campus buildings and estate teams looking to reduce HVAC energy while protecting comfort and operational control.
Complex BMS-controlled buildings
For buildings where live data, controllable setpoints and changing operating conditions create an opportunity for continuous optimisation.
