European Circuits is delighted to be the chosen manufacturer of Verv’s smart home units.
Verv is a clever home energy assistant that gives you intelligent information about your home appliances, helping you to tackle your electricity bills, reduce your carbon footprint and keep your home safe.
Using cutting-edge artificial intelligence technology, Verv will identify what appliances are using your power and how much money each one is costing you, in real-time.
And the longer you have Verv, the more it will learn. Unlocking more and more features like alerts if you’ve left an appliance on and notifications if an appliance is deteriorating.
In what is a great example of European Circuits’ Full Product Build capabilities, the unit, made here in the UK, is currently hitting the marketplace this winter and is being sold on the Verv website and in many other well known outlets like Amazon and Tesco.
