Sense Finops

Sense uses a one-time hardware purchase model, which means API and platform costs are fixed at the point of device acquisition rather than variable based on usage volume. There are no metered API call charges, data transfer fees, or subscription costs associated with using the Sense Client API or Realtime WebSocket feed. FinOps considerations for Sense center on the initial capital expenditure for monitor hardware, potential return on investment from energy savings achieved through monitoring insights, and for utility partners, the program incentive structures tied to measurable demand reduction.
