Signals by YYZdata

Signals is an operational intelligence platform.

It reads the systems a business runs, and any data it can reach, and helps the operator act. We are building it first for college and university campuses.

Prototype deployed at our first site. Signing build partners now.

Room 214 is booked for 40. Occupancy reads 6.

Interpret

Fourth Tuesday in a row, and the air handler runs a full schedule for it.

Reason

Your rule: under a quarter full for four weeks goes to space planning.

Act

Sent to space planning with the evidence. Setback drafted for the facilities lead to approve.

Class scheduleOccupancyBuilding automationSpace inventory

An illustration. In a deployment it runs on your systems and your rules.

The problem

The answer is usually there. It is spread across systems.

A business runs on several systems, each bought to do one job. Each holds a slice of the truth. The operator ends up as the integration, and decisions get made late, on partial information, by whoever is on shift.

How it works

Detect, interpret, reason, act.

A dashboard tells you what happened. Signals goes on to the decision, and with your permission, the action.

Detect

Take in the signals

Schedules, transactions, work orders, sensors, cameras and outside data. Each reading comes with its confidence.

Interpret

Read them together

One reading rarely means much. Several that point the same way, in context, do.

Reason

Weigh it against your rules

What is happening, what it is costing you, and what to do next, by your thresholds.

Act

Route it or run it

To the person you named, or on a standing rule you set. Every outcome is recorded and sharpens the next call.

Manual by default. Automatic where you ask for it. How it works

Campuses first

Many systems under one roof.

A campus runs class scheduling, access control, building automation, work orders and space inventory side by side. Buildings cost money whether they are used or not, and the gap between scheduled and actual use matters to space planning, energy and capital requests.

Signals also applies to venues, senior living and operators with many sites.

Company

Founded by operators and engineers.

YYZdata was founded by Ranjit Kohli and Amrit Bains. The prototype runs at our first site, and we are signing build partners who will shape the platform with us.
