European cloud & hosting alternative based in Sweden.
Sensative builds ultra-thin IoT sensors and the Yggio integration platform that unifies devices across smart cities and PropTech — includes 10-year battery life sensors and a technology-agnostic data broker. The combination turns fragmented device ecosystems into standardised, queryable data streams, letting operators monitor occupancy, air quality, leakage, and asset tracking from one normalised API.
Yggio is built on a zero-trust architecture with full data sovereignty, deployable in cloud, edge, or hybrid configurations. It speaks LoRaWAN, Z-Wave, and FIWARE standards natively, while the Ratatosk context broker harmonises legacy systems with modern IoT endpoints. Customers can swap hardware vendors without rewriting integrations.
Key benefits:
- Strips multi-sensors with 10-year battery life and modular downloadable apps
- Vendor-agnostic integration across LoRaWAN, Z-Wave, and legacy building systems
- Unified data API delivering normalised streams to any downstream application
- Flexible deployment in public cloud, private edge, or hybrid topologies
- Zero-trust architecture with full data sovereignty built in
- 500,000+ sensors deployed across European smart city and real estate projects
Sensative is headquartered in Lund, Sweden, founded in 2013, and operates entirely under EU jurisdiction with GDPR and EU Data Act compliance. Customer data remains on European infrastructure, with sovereignty-by-design principles baked into the Yggio platform architecture.
