Company Description

Founded in 2009, today Sefaira is the leader in software for high-performance building design. Following years of innovation in the application of Cloud Computing for building design, Sefaira was the first company to introduce real-time design performance analysis to the benefit of architects, engineers and other building designers. With Sefaira, users can analyze and compare multiple design strategies within a fraction of the time and cost previously required. This includes defining, quantifying, and optimizing the energy, daylighting, water, carbon and financial benefits of relevant design strategies.

IoT Solutions

Sefaira's Real-Time Analysis plugins provide constant feedback on both energy & daylighting metrics as architects work. This frees users to test unlimited design options without worrying about the time or cost of analysis.

Sefaira’s Web Apps for architecture and systems are built for comparative and parametric analysis. Cloud Computing enables multiple parallel runs with no reduction in speed -- letting you explore options quickly and home in on the best solutions.

Sefaira Architecture makes it easy to understand how a design is performing, and helps users connect the dots between geometry, energy use, daylight performance and potential improvements.

Sefaira Systems produces high-quality HVAC sizing and energy results directly from architectural Revit and SketchUp models, enabling users to rapidly compare design options and respond to architectural changes.

In the next 20 years, the urban population will grow from 3.5 billion to 5 billion people. Industries, cities and authorities need to find ways to manage the impact of this increase, and new solutions are urgently needed because natural resources are finite. Advancing technologies may provide the solution to problems arising from rapid urban population growth, and they may even improve the quality of life for citizens. However, technology is currently used as a passive tool, and it lacks the built-in intelligence needed for responding to fast-changing events and scenarios. At Worldsensing, they believe technology must be able to function intelligently. The only way forward is through the use of ‘Smart Technology’ solutions that provide high-quality technology, sustainability, efficiency and design. A solution based on Smart Technologies can, for instance, prevent disasters, make predictions, interpret data and much more. It is scalable, modular and able to adapt to different circumstances and scenarios. Worldsensing aims to design sustainable and market-orientated solutions that embrace Smart Technology. they offer deploy-and-forget, application-tailored, end-to-end solutions for the Industrial Internet. Their designs for machine-to-machine systems are reliable, robust, small, light and affordable.
