Plug & Play IoT

From Device to Dashboard

Connect your device in minutes and instantly view data on your dashboard. The Instant IoT platform includes everything needed to connect, monitor and manage devices, with no firmware, coding or electronics engineering required.

The Instant IoT board connects directly to your device using standard interfaces such as serial, digital, or analogue. Once powered, it reads your data and securely sends it to the cloud, where it is available on your dashboard.

There is no need to design electronics, develop firmware, or build a cloud system. The IoT hardware integration is simple and works with both existing products and new designs.

This significantly reduces development time, cost, and project risk, while giving you a predictable path from concept to deployment. The complete European technology stack ensures control and security throughout.

How it Works

Get your Instant IoT Board

An off-the-shelf solution for your IoT requirements. All boards include Bluetooth, memory and data logging. Choose from either Wifi or Ethernet for your IoT connection.

Connect to your existing Device

To retrofit the board to a device already in the field, connect the power and use standard interfaces (serial, digital, or analogue); no firmware development or embedded engineering required.

Or use a part of your new design

Simply integrate into your new design. During assembly, connect the power and serial ports, or the digital and analogue I/O ports. Replaces the need to design and maintain your own IoT system.

See your data on the Dashboard

Seamlessly connect your Instant IoT board and control your IoT ecosystem. Create a login and add each board ID to your account. Simplify management, unlock real-time insights, and scale with confidence.

IoT Development Options

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to IoT. The right solution depends on your requirements, budget, timescales, and available engineering resources. Here's how Instant IoT compares with other common approaches in terms of cost, deployment time, technical risk, and device management for a new deployment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ask a question

  • The Instant IoT board is small, the size and shape of a credit card. It is designed to fit in many industrial and larger products. Whether it will fit will depend on your exact design and space. Send us an e-mail, and we can help.

  • Getting started is simple. Reach out through our contact form or schedule a call. We’ll walk you through the next steps and answer any questions along the way.

  • Our no-code, no-electronics approach. Other hardware platforms still require custom code and hardware to provide IoT connectivity to your design. Instant IoT doesn’t.

  • We offer flexible pricing based on the number of units you require. You buy the boards and then choose a contract for the Dashboard and backend based on your needs. After an initial conversation, we’ll provide a transparent quote with no hidden costs.

  • Currently, the Instant IoT board only communicates with the Ripcord Backend. However, you can use our API’s to create your own custom dashboard, logic or other applications. We also offer this customisation as a service.

  • Yes, we will work with you to trial the board; however, we currently only accept volume orders and cannot sell you just a few boards.

  • The Instant IoT board is designed to comply with the EMC and RED directives. Since it is not an end product, it should be included in your device testing.

  • First, it has to physically fit in your device. It would not be suitable for small consumer devices. Second, it needs to be powered from your device, so it is best suited to mains power or large battery-powered devices. Third, you need a WIFI or Ethernet connection. (Cellular coming soon).

  • Yes, the full tech stack is European. All design, assembly, support services, servers, and cloud solutions are provided from the UK and Europe.
