Infrastructure that knows itself

Sono is the AI-enabled operating system for data centres. It connects to the systems you already run, understands every site down to the signal, and tells your people what matters, where it comes from and who it affects.

People, planet, profit

Data centres are growing faster than the people who can run them

Sono is the AI-enabled operating system that does the continuous watching, tracing and ranking, so the people you have can act faster and the equipment does more with less.

People
Clear tasks for every shift
Sono does the continuous watching and ordering of alarms. A short list with origin and context attached lowers the qualification needed on shift and lets you scale operations without scaling headcount at the same rate.
Planet
The right site, the right action
Choosing a site on grid, climate and water, and acting on each alarm sooner, cuts wasted energy and avoids emergency responses. A lower carbon footprint is the aim, and we will quantify it in the pilot.
Profit
Fewer outages, better capital decisions
SLA response times are met, affected customers hear from you first, and capital goes to sites that hold up over the life of the asset.
What it cost

The alarm that mattered was one of more than 200. About 3 MW went dark for 20 minutes.

A maintenance handover at a hyperscale site. Origin, priority and affected customer would have answered the technician’s first three questions.

Product

Know where to build. Know what to fix first.

Start where the question is.
Portfolio Expansion helps you decide where to build.
Portfolio Management runs what you already operate.

Module 1

Portfolio Management

Every alarm, traced from signal to customer

Each alarm arrives with its exact origin, a priority Sono calculates, and the racks and customers it affects, built on your existing BMS and CMMS.

Module 2

Portfolio Expansion

Site selection, before the first euro is committed

Compare candidate sites on one common basis: grid capacity, climate and water exposure, and the permits queue, with planet and optimisation built in.

Tell us what your data centres cannot tell you yet

Whether you are deciding where to build next or running what you already operate, the data to answer already exists: grid, climate and permit data for new sites, your control systems and asset records for live ones. Sono connects it, structures it and gives your team the next decision.

We are looking for early pilot partners among colocation and wholesale operators, and operations service providers, across Europe.
