IOT PLATFORM DEVELOPMENT

Connect thousands of devices without drowning in data

We build IoT platforms that handle device provisioning, real-time telemetry, edge computing, and operational dashboards. From sensor to insight in milliseconds, with the infrastructure to scale from 100 to 100,000 devices.

THE PROBLEM

Sound familiar?

01

Device management does not scale

Provisioning, firmware updates, and monitoring for 50 devices is manageable. At 5,000 devices across 20 locations, your manual processes collapse.

02

Data overload without insight

Sensors generate terabytes of raw data. Without proper pipelines, aggregation, and alerting, the data sits in storage while operators miss critical anomalies.

03

Protocol fragmentation slows everything

MQTT, CoAP, HTTP, Modbus, BLE — every device speaks a different language. Building adapters for each protocol delays your roadmap by months.

THE SOLUTION

What you get

01

Device Management

Automated provisioning, registration, grouping, and lifecycle management. Track device health, connectivity, and metadata from a single dashboard.

02

OTA Firmware Updates

Push firmware updates to device fleets with staged rollouts, rollback capability, and update verification. Zero-downtime deployment.

03

Real-Time Data Pipelines

Ingest millions of events per minute through MQTT brokers, stream processors, and time-series databases. Filter, transform, and route in real time.

04

Edge Computing Layer

Deploy processing logic to edge gateways for local decision-making, reduced latency, and bandwidth optimization. Sync with cloud when connected.

05

Operational Dashboards

Real-time Grafana-powered dashboards with custom widgets, threshold alerts, anomaly detection, and historical trend analysis.

06

Protocol Abstraction

Unified ingestion layer that normalizes MQTT, CoAP, HTTP, Modbus, and BLE data into a consistent schema. Add new protocols without platform changes.

PROCESS

From first call to production

01

IoT Architecture Design

Define device types, communication protocols, data models, and cloud architecture. Plan for your current scale and 10x growth.

02

Pipeline Development

Build the ingestion, processing, and storage layers. Implement device management APIs and the protocol abstraction layer.

03

Dashboard & Integration

Deploy operational dashboards, alerting rules, and integrate with your existing ERP, SCADA, or business intelligence tools.

04

Scale & Optimize

Load-test at 10x expected volume, optimize query performance, implement auto-scaling, and establish monitoring baselines.

WHY GEMINATE

How we compare to your other options

VS HIRING IN-HOUSE

60% lower cost, 48 hours vs 3 months

No recruitment fees, no benefits overhead, no office space. Your developer starts in 48 hours — not after a 3-month hiring pipeline. Scale up or down with 2-week notice.

VS FREELANCERS

Dedicated, vetted, backed by a team

No juggling multiple freelancers. No ghosting. Your developer is full-time on your project, backed by our engineering team for code reviews, and replaced within one week if needed.

VS LARGE AGENCIES

Direct access, no middlemen

You talk directly to your developers and our founders — not account managers. Same quality, transparent pricing, and no 6-month lock-in contracts. Cancel anytime.

Book a 15-minute call
What IoT protocols do you support?
We support MQTT, CoAP, HTTP/REST, WebSockets, Modbus (TCP/RTU), BLE, and LoRaWAN out of the box. Our protocol abstraction layer lets us add new protocols without changing your application code.
How do you handle IoT security?
Every device gets unique X.509 certificates for mutual TLS authentication. We implement device identity management, encrypted communication channels, secure boot verification, and network segmentation between device and application layers.
Can you integrate with existing SCADA or industrial systems?
Yes. We integrate with SCADA systems via OPC-UA and Modbus protocols, and with industrial historians like OSIsoft PI. We bridge legacy operational technology with modern cloud platforms.
How much does custom IoT platform development cost?
A basic device management platform costs $30,000-60,000. A full platform with real-time pipelines and dashboards costs $60,000-150,000. Enterprise IoT with edge computing and SCADA integration costs $150,000-300,000.
How long does IoT platform development take?
Basic device management: 10-14 weeks. Full platform with real-time data pipelines: 20-28 weeks. Enterprise with edge computing: 8-14 months.
Can you handle millions of IoT events per day?
Yes. We architect for scale using MQTT brokers, Apache Kafka, and time-series databases. Our platforms process 10M+ events daily with sub-50ms latency. Auto-scaling handles traffic spikes without manual intervention.
