Switchee was founded out of INSEAD Business School in 2015 and is headquartered in London. It is now the market leader in social housing IoT, servicing many of the largest housing associations in the UK. The company helps large residential landlords to better manage their property portfolio, using technology to identify maintenance issues, reduce fuel bills, and improve communication with residents. For every £1 invested in Switchee services, the landlord saves £2 and puts £2 back into the pocket of their resident. Switchee has reimagined the way landlords interact with residents and manage their homes. Their services ensure that landlords have the information they need to eliminate fuel poverty, damp and mould, as well as heating and ventilation failures. Switchee is primarily a software and insights business, but to access this real-time data, they reinvented a ubiquitous household object – the thermostat. They have created an internet-connected product that reduces energy bills, acts as a two-way communication platform with the resident, and collects environmental data that drives an insights engine, landlord dashboard, and API.
