What is a Synapse
In the human body, every thought, action, and reaction happens because neurons communicate.
But neurons don’t touch directly.
The connection happens in a tiny space called the synapse.
The synapse is where information is shared and decisions begin.
It is the bridge that makes intelligence possible.
Buildings Work the Same Way
Buildings also have many systems — air conditioning, lighting, power, IT, access control, AV.
But like neurons without synapses, these systems rarely communicate.
They function, but they can’t understand context or respond together.

Synapse is the Cognitive Experience Layer for Buildings.
Synapse is the intelligence bridge inside modern buildings.
Where BMS controls the machines, Synapse controls the human experience — the places where people live, meet, collaborate, rest, and move.
It turns isolated devices into a unified environment that feels alive, adaptive, and intuitive.
The Problem:
Disconnected Buildings
In both older buildings lacking IoT infrastructure and newer ones with too many independent platforms, building systems rarely communicate. Like neurons that don’t touch directly, systems function but cannot understand context or respond together.
This results in complexity, inefficiency, and wasted energy. Ventilation, lighting, and water often run without proper coordination, leading to higher costs, lower sustainability, and overwhelmed facilities teams.
Your building needs to feel alive,
not just automated
Whats synapse does
Synapse is an IoT-based control and monitoring platform designed to unify all building systems into one intelligent ecosystem.
We bridge the gap by transforming Independent Smart Islands into Intelligent Archipelago.
Synapse connects everything, including legacy systems, BMS, electrical, mechanical, lighting, security, AV, and IT. It orchestrates every system that touches people—comfort, ambience, flow, collaboration, safety, and service.
Synapse vs. BMS:
A Category Boundary
You have found the category boundary. While the BMS (Building Management System) focuses on the Machine Layer and controls equipment for operational stability, Synapse is the Human Experience Layer that controls the human experience inside the building.
Synapse makes the building worth being in
Experience Intelligence in Action
Synapse uses context—not just setpoints—to make environments intuitive, adaptive, and personalized. For example, with BMS alone, AC runs based only on a temperature setpoint; with Synapse, AC runs differently if the room is booked, occupied, has daylight, CO₂ levels rise, and guests are entering.
Practical examples of enhances
the Human Experience Layer with Synapse
Meeting & Collaboration Spaces
- Auto-Ready Rooms: Synapse prepares the room (AC, lighting, blinds, AV) to the correct scene when a meeting is booked.
- Cognitive Performance: If CO₂ levels rise during long meetings, Synapse automatically increases fresh air.
- Adaptive Efficiency: If only two people attend a 12-person meeting, Synapse reduces ventilation, lighting, and cooling to match real usage.
- One-Touch Start: Screen, camera, mic, speakers, and call platform auto-sync.
Guest Rooms (Hospitality)
- Personal Comfort Profiles: Returning guests automatically receive their preferred temperature, lighting scene, and curtain position.
- Sleep Quality Mode: At night, Synapse reduces AC airflow noise, gradually dims lights, and optimizes temperature for sleep.
- Sustainability: If a guest leaves, AC goes to standby, but recovers before they return to ensure comfort.
Lobby, Reception & Public Spaces
Arrival Scene Orchestration: Synapse adjusts lighting temperature, music volume, and scent for a welcoming ambience when guests enter.
Dynamic Comfort: Ventilation increases automatically when the lobby becomes busy (not just at fixed schedules).
Mood Scenes: Adjusts to warmer light in the evening or cooler light during daytime productivity hours.
Parking, Access, Navigation & Service
- Seamless Access: Employee ID unlocks elevator access, and lighting/AC respond immediately at the destination floor.
- Robot Coordination: Service robots can request elevator access, and Synapse opens doors, signals floors, and clears paths.
- Guided Parking: Directs cars to available spaces and manages EV charging balancing.
Why Synapse Is Unlike Any Smart Building Platform
Experience Layer,
Not Machine Layer
Every BMS manages equipment.
Only Synapse manages the spaces where humans interact.
Multi-System Human
Space Orchestration
Synapse synchronizes lighting, AC, AV, scent, blinds, occupancy, CO₂, access, booking, robotics — all at once.
Context-Aware
Intelligence
Not “IF temperature X THEN cool.” But “Who is here? What activity is happening? What should the environment feel like?”
Tenant-Centric
Value Creation
From guest satisfaction to employee productivity, Synapse impacts human outcomes — not just energy.
