OpenRemote is a 100% open-source IoT platform that enables device integration, automation rules, data analysis, and visualization for managing distributed assets.

---

🚀 Overview

OpenRemote provides a complete, scalable IoT device management solution that connects devices via multiple protocols, automates behaviors with a powerful rules engine, and visualizes data through customizable dashboards. It solves the problem of vendor lock-in and fragmented IoT integrations by offering a fully open-source platform that supports multi-tenancy, edge computing, and seamless business system integrations.

This project is built for manufacturers, system integrators, developers, and organizations in sectors like energy management, smart cities, fleet telematics, and asset tracking who need to monitor, control, and optimize distributed products without proprietary constraints.

OpenRemote was created to overcome challenges in integrating diverse communication protocols and data sources into a single, user-friendly data management platform, enabling predictive maintenance, optimization algorithms, and customer-facing apps while keeping everything transparent and modifiable.
