Make energy a competitive differentiator in the flight to quality. Effectively demonstrate how you’re reducing your carbon footprint and theirs.
Cortex enables you to:
Market your building successfully with external certifications and reporting like LEED, Energy Star, and GRESB.
Visualize your building’s energy use and occupancy trends to get tenant buy-in to efficiency measures.
Lower your tenant’s utility costs.
Easily share energy data with your tenants.
“Public-facing tenants are doing their own evaluations on sustainability. The data from Cortex is readily available for us to share with them.”

Cortex FAQs
With our mobile app for energy management, your building team can view and implement energy recommendations from anywhere in the building using the device they have in their hand. User-friendly and easy to navigate, it lets them assess recommendations and, using the ‘push to accept’ feature, modifying the BMS with just one click.
We integrate with over 30 leading brands, including Alerton, Automated Logic, Johnson Controls, Schneider Electric, Siemens, and Tridium, to help you maximize your current systems without extensive new investments.
Cortex automatically collects hundreds of thousands of data points from your BMS, energy meters, and utility bills, to create a precise dynamic profile of your building. We enrich the building data, gathered in 15-minute intervals, with external data like hyperlocal weather and regulatory requirements. Learn more about how our energy insights platform works here.
No. Whether you’re in a new building or an office that has been around for two decades, Cortex can add a layer of intelligence to your current systems without a capital or time-intensive project.
Although Cortex is designed specifically to help building engineers deliver change at the building level, our energy insights are also used by property managers and corporate teams to understand the impact of energy efficiency initiatives, meet sustainability reporting requirements, and remain in compliance with building performance regulations. Whether you’re running the building day-to-day or planning for the next five years, Cortex’s platform can help you break down information silos and demonstrate progress toward your ESG commitments.
