You make the hardware.
We provide the SaaS.

Connect and operate the Linux device you already ship. Give your team the software to support every unit in the field. When customers need their own application, add a branded portal and product workflows without starting again.

OEM fleet viewSiloSentry worked reference · Pulse attention

Choose how far you need to go.

Start with the Linux device you already ship. Add fleet operations, a customer portal and product workflows as you need them. Fleet operations do not require a Customer Portal.

Operate my devices

Connect and operate one device

Identity, Remote Shell, diagnostics, monitoring, logs and fleet operations. Outcome: a supportable installed base. No Customer Portal required.

Connect and operate one device

Give customers a portal

Build a customer product

Customer accounts, sites, devices, data and permitted controls in the OEM's brand. Add a Customer Portal when downstream users need one.

Build a customer product

Build product workflows

Explore Product Applications

Records, rules, durable processes, commands, offline datasets and native application kits when the product needs customer workflow.

Bring the product you already make.

Dataplicity starts with the Linux device inside it. You keep the hardware, software, data and brand that make the product yours. SiloSentry is the canonical worked reference for the full ladder.

SiloSentry visuals on this site are a worked reference-product scenario, clearly labelled as such — not a claim of an unrelated third-party customer deployment.

What the OEM brings

  • Linux level-monitor or gateway hardware
  • Sensing method and calibration
  • Product runtime and field install
  • SiloSentry brand and customers

What Dataplicity adds

Fleet operations for your teamOutbound connection, durable identity, Device Class, Pulse, diagnostics, logs and Remote Shell — with no Customer Portal required.
Optional portal and workflowsBranded Customer Portal, Product Application records and customer-isolated Product Instances when buyers need them.

See the fleet. Then get all the way into a device.

Open a live terminal from any device record, investigate the problem and make the fix. The same system handles the work around it, from fleet-wide jobs and monitoring to incidents, customers, warranties and returns.

Fleets diverge. You shouldn’t have to invent a gold image.

IoT devices are not homogeneous, and they never stay identical. Chasing a gold design is a mug’s game.

Pulse learns normal from the whole Device Class — with no prior knowledge, no coding, and no baseline from you — then flags the ones that stop looking like their peers.

No prior knowledgeTurn Pulse on. It fingerprints the class as devices run.
Peer-learned normalThe baseline is what the fleet actually looks like, not a manifesto.
Divergence, flaggedWhen units stop matching their peers, you hear about it first.

Know when the fleet crosses the line.

Set thresholds on impaired devices — offline, unreachable, or failing checks. When enough of the fleet is affected, Dataplicity opens an incident, pages on-call, and escalates until someone owns it.

Fleet-wide thresholdsAlert when a share of devices goes offline, stops checking in, or fails monitored signals — not one device at a time.
Wake the right peopleOn-call schedules, push to mobile apps, and escalation if nobody acknowledges in time.
Owned through resolutionIncidents carry device context, notes, and audit history so the next engineer picks up where you left off.

The job starts when the hardware ships.

Devices need managing whether or not customers need a portal. Dataplicity provides fleet operations first, then an optional customer application and product workflows when the product requires them.
