Universal connectors
The full spectrum of industrial and IT interfaces. Read live signals via OPC UA and S7, query SQL databases, parse local files, or interact with third-party Web APIs. Heisenware unifies them all into a single data stream.
Built-in MQTT broker
A fully compliant MQTT broker is part of the platform. Connect any MQTT-enabled device, sensor, or generic client directly, and use standard Pub/Sub patterns to build real-time IoT networks or hook up custom hardware instantly.
Agents for edge connectivity
Agents securely map and tunnel data while enabling remote logic configuration. Configure and compile your agent directly in the platform, deploy it as a Docker container or native binary, and run it inside your network or across customer sites for global fleet integration.
Code Adapter
Don't rewrite your existing logic. Wrap code written in Node.js, C++, Python, React, R, or even for Arduino, and expose it to the platform via remote procedure calls to trigger local functions and scripts from within your visual apps.
Visual functions library
A complete library of pre-built functions forms the core of your application logic. Connecting to hardware, processing arrays, simulating data, managing file systems: the building blocks are ready to use.
Event-driven wiring
Define exactly how data flows. Connect the output of one function directly to the input of another, and trigger logic chains via user actions, periodic schedules, or asynchronous events like incoming MQTT messages.
Code-based data modifiers
Transform data on the fly between functions without cluttering your canvas. Attach JSONata or JavaScript expressions to any function output to remap, filter, or calculate values before they're stored, displayed, or passed on.
Integrated InfluxDB for time series
Log high-frequency data without leaving your flow. Attach a Recorder Extension to any data output, pick a retention policy, and name your time series. The platform handles the writes to the built-in InfluxDB, and the data is available across all apps in your workspace.
Built-in PostgreSQL for relational data
Manage master data, recipes, and user records in a fully integrated PostgreSQL database. No connection strings to manage. Use the pre-built SQL functions to define schemas, create tables, and run full CRUD operations inside your application logic.
Industrial widget library
Everything you need to collect inputs and visualize data: forms, signature fields, and barcode scanners through to real-time charts, gauges, and data grids. Every widget is highly customizable, and features like search or filtering are enabled with a checkbox, not code.
Adaptive layouts
Go beyond standard responsiveness. Define pixel-perfect designs per screen size, from phones to large control room monitors. Design unique views for specific devices or let the system scale your layout automatically.
App structure & navigation
Build complete applications, not just dashboards. Organize complex projects with main menus and sub-pages, and trigger page switches programmatically based on backend events and data.
Instant branding
Professional-looking apps without touching CSS. Switch between built-in design systems and apply your company colors and branding instantly.
Managed cloud or self-hosted
You decide where your data lives. Use our cloud (hosted in the EU via Hetzner Online) for immediate setup and zero maintenance. For strict data governance or air-gapped environments, deploy self-hosted, on-premise or in your private cloud via Docker.
User and access management per app
Define unique access rules for every app. Make it public, protect it with a master password, or require individual sign-up or invites. Users authenticate via email or Google login, and you manage everyone in a simple dashboard.
Snapshots & versioning
Never lose your work. Export your entire application or specific parts as file-based configurations to create backups, version your software, or share blueprints between workspaces. Made a mistake? Import a previous snapshot to restore the state.vvvv
Installable web apps (PWA)
The native app experience at the speed of the web. Users access your tools via URL or QR code, no app store required, and can install the app to their home screen for a full-screen experience that feels native.
