La Artificial Intelligence It's no longer just used to generate images or chat with a virtual assistant: now it can also help you save on your electricity bill and, in the process, make your home more comfortable and sustainable. This is exactly what it proposes. tadoº, The well-known German company, which has just presented AI Assist, a new layer of intelligence applied to its range of smart heating tadoº XThe promise, of course, is powerful: up to 55% of saving on the heating and hot water bill, which is no small feat considering that these two consumptions account for almost 80% of the average energy expenditure in many homes.
From automation to real intelligence
Until now, most smart heating systems worked with more or less fixed rules: if you open the window, it turns off; if you leave the house, it lowers the temperature; if you set a schedule, it turns on or off. Very useful, yes, but in a certain way, limited. With AI Assist, tadoª wants to take all this a step further. Instead of following rigid instructions, the system learns from your routine, predicts your needs, and optimizes consumption in real time. To achieve this, the company has trained itself with a treasure trove of data: More than 120.000 billion hours of anonymous heating usage collected over 15 years from more than one million European homes.
The idea, therefore, is that your home not only responds, but "thinks" in advance to give you comfort when you need it and reduce expenses when you don't.
These are some of the features AI Assist highlights:
- Adaptive heating: Learn how each room heats and cools and adjust your radiators precisely for maximum efficiency.
- Predictive warm-up: It knows when you're coming home and starts warming up earlier, so you'll be welcomed by a pleasant atmosphere.
- Energy IQ: A clear data dashboard that explains where and how you spend the most energy, helping you make smarter decisions as a result.
- Holiday mode: Automatically adjusts the heating during long absences, avoiding waste but ensuring that when you return, you'll find a warm home.
The best thing is that these features come at no extra cost to those who already have the subscription tado° X Auto Assist. Pricing remains at €3,99 per month or €29,99 per year, and all current users will receive the update automatically.
Furthermore, according to the company's own calculations, if all homes in Spain used AI Assist, they could reducir Up to 14,6 million tons of CO₂ equivalent per year, equivalent to removing 8,3 million combustion cars from our roads. A figure that clearly shows that smart heating can play a key role in the fight against climate change and sustainability.
