Product overview

A strong foundation, clearly documented.

GivEnergy Insight is an independent, monitoring-only application that brings inverter, solar, battery, grid, meter, tariff, EV, forecast and energy-performance information into one composed interface. It supports direct local-network monitoring that can continue without internet, optional Cloud access, a built-in simulator, long-term private statistics, health and alert signals, cost and value insights, CSV reporting and a full-screen Smart View. The current release is free for Apple Silicon Mac, Intel Mac, Windows x64 and compatible x86_64 Synology DSM systems. It reads energy data but does not change inverter settings, charge schedules, discharge schedules or export profiles. GivEnergy Insight is not affiliated with or endorsed by GivEnergy.
