Legrand & KODE Labs Partner on Wattstopper i3 Smart Building Platform
Legrand®, a global leader in electrical and digital building infrastructures, has launched the Wattstopper i3 Platform, a next-generation lighting and building intelligence solution powered by KODE Labs, a global leader of advanced smart building technology.
According to the company, the partnership positions Legrand to lead the lighting controls industry into a new era of unified experiences, seamless integrations, and data-driven control, making it easier to transform buildings into intelligent, responsive environments.
Wattstopper i3 unites Legrand’s established Wattstopper DLMand Wattstopper PLUSsystems under a cohesive interface. With KODE’s award-winning OS at its core, the platform consolidates data from lighting, HVAC, occupancy sensors, and third-party building systems into actionable insights. Wattstopper i3 allows operating teams to plug into new and existing systems to control and optimize building systems in a single, intuitive dashboard — whether for a single property or entire portfolio.
“The Wattstopper i3 Platform represents the future of smarter building management,” said Tom Lowery, President of Lighting & Building Control Systems at Legrand. “By consolidating critical building systems into a single interface, we’re enabling building managers to make data-driven decisions that improve performance and reduce operational costs. This partnership allows us to optimize a building’s value — today and in the future.”
With the launch of Wattstopper i3, Legrand is delivering more than an operating system, the company is delivering a strategy for the future of smart buildings. The platform features:
- Seamless plug-and-play integrations across existing and legacy lighting control ecosystems
- Occupancy-based automation, dynamic scheduling, and real-time zoning
- Energy optimization and predictive insights for faster, smarter decisions
- A unified look and feel across Legrand’s networked lighting control interfaces for a premium, consistent experience
Disrupting a Fragmented Market
In a market dominated by proprietary systems and siloed platforms, Wattstopper i3 delivers a compelling alternative: an open, agile platform designed for rapid deployment and future scalability.
“Being chosen to power Wattstopper i3 is a proud moment for us,” said Etrit Demaj, co-founder of KODE Labs. “Together with Legrand, we’re making it possible to deploy smarter lighting systems with ease, integrate with almost anything, and give customers the open, data-rich environments they’ve been waiting for.”
According to Legrand, the launch marks an important step forward in how OEMs and software platforms can work together to meet the evolving needs of the industry. As interoperability, speed, and intelligence become more critical, the Wattstopper i3 Platform helps position Legrand to better support clients looking for smarter, more connected building solutions.
