ASTRID PODs
Eyes on the equipment you can’t watch yourself.
An ASTRID POD sits with your equipment and keeps watch, reporting health and anything out of the ordinary, without an operator in the loop. From a single unit to a fully managed fleet, secure by design.
Why it pays
The cost of not knowing is the failure you didn’t see coming
Unmonitored equipment tells you it’s in trouble the expensive way, when it stops. Monitoring moves that moment forward, to while you can still do something.
Catch it before it fails
Continuous health readings mean you hear about a problem while it’s still a warning, not after the equipment has stopped.
No one has to watch
An ASTRID POD sits with the equipment and reports home on its own. No operator in the loop, no site visit to check a gauge.
Secure by design
Data comes home over a hardened channel with the device’s identity attached, so you always know which unit is telling you what.
From readings to decisions
The platform turns raw readings into trends, alerts that mean something, and recommendations, not just another dashboard.
Start with your problem
Tell us what you need to keep an eye on
You don’t need to know whether you want a POD, a platform or a managed service, just what you’re worried about. Here’s how we help with the monitoring problems we hear most.
“I’ve got equipment on sites I can’t easily get to.”
A POD sits with it and reports home continuously, health, status and anything out of the ordinary, so distance stops being a blind spot.
“I need to know something’s going wrong before it fails.”
Continuous monitoring with alerts tuned to your thresholds. You hear about the drift early, while there’s still time to act.
“I want monitoring but I don’t want to run the infrastructure.”
Take it fully managed: we host it, watch it and maintain it, and tell you when something needs attention. You get the insight, not the ops.
“Off-the-shelf monitoring doesn’t fit my equipment.”
We build the monitoring around what you actually run, your equipment, your thresholds, your reporting, instead of making you fit the tool.
“My devices are in the field and security matters.”
POD Pro adds secure boot, encrypted storage and per-device keys, so a device in the wild stays trustworthy and every report is attributable.
“I’ve got readings but no real insight.”
The platform turns the raw stream into trends and recommendations, so you can see what’s changing and what to do about it.
Something else?
If what you need to watch doesn’t fit a box, describe it, we’ll propose a monitoring setup that fits and spec the right hardware.
Describe what you runWhat comes home
Live health, a trend, and an alert that means something
Each POD reports its equipment’s health continuously, with the device’s identity attached to every reading. The platform watches the trend, not just the latest number, so a slow drift toward a threshold raises a flag before it becomes a failure.
Alerts are tuned to what matters to you, and reach the right person early. Less noise, fewer surprises, and a record of what happened when.

The hardware
Two platforms, match the POD to the risk
POD Lite
Zero platform
- ▸Compact and low-cost
- ▸Continuous health reporting
- ▸Fast to deploy at scale
- ▸Best for lightweight sites
POD Pro
CM4 platform
- ▸Secure boot & encrypted storage
- ▸Per-device keys and stronger cyber posture
- ▸Headroom for demanding workloads
- ▸Best for regulated environments
Three ways to buy it
However much of it you want to run
Out-of-the-box
A ready-made setup for common monitoring needs, quick to deploy and priced to just get going.
Customised
Tailored to your equipment, thresholds and reporting, when off-the-shelf won’t quite do.
Managed
We host, watch and maintain it, and tell you when something needs attention. Insight in, ops out.
In practice
Where it’s used
Cold chain & refrigeration
Temperature-critical equipment watched continuously, with an alert before stock is at risk.
Unattended plant & sites
Pumps, gensets and machinery on remote sites reporting home without a visit.
Regulated environments
Hardened POD Pro units where security and attributable records are non-negotiable.
Fleets of devices
Many units, one platform, health, trends and alerts across the whole estate.
