About GIZMO

Engineers first.
Everything else second.

GIZMOIOT INNOVATIONS LLP is a Pune-based product company. Since 2015 we've been building the unglamorous, essential systems that keep restaurants billing, wards watched, tanks full and buildings running — and we run them in our own outlets first.

The GIZMO C-15 smart switch with its 15-key remote and mobile app — the retrofit controller that started the company: no rewiring, appliances controlled from anywhere.
Our Story

From retrofit switches to hospital wards

We started in 2015 retrofitting smart control into Indian homes — no rewiring, no drama, just switches that listened. That discipline of working with existing infrastructure, not against it, became our engineering DNA.

A decade later the same principle runs through everything: an SROS outlet keeps billing when the internet drops, an AquaFlow pump protects itself with no cloud in sight, a Xenios ward processes patient data on-premise. Edge-first, fail-safe, owned end to end.

Founder story

Built by an operator who got tired of closing a café with four apps

GIZMO was never a startup looking for a problem. Every product here was built because our own buildings, kitchens and boards needed it first.

  1. 2015

    One retrofit device at a time

    GIZMOIOT starts in Pune building electronics and IoT for the buildings that already exist. No rewiring, no drama — switches and hardware that listened.

  2. 2017

    45 minutes to close a café

    A café opened as a side project. Every night ended with four apps — POS, inventory, HR, payments — that refused to agree. The same hardware team started writing the software to fix it.

  3. Since then

    XENIOS, running our own outlets

    That fix became XENIOS: a local-first OS for restaurants, hotels and hospitals. It runs Cafe Deja Vu across three Pune outlets — we eat our own cooking, every day. PickyEat lives inside the guest experience; The Green Energy applies the same discipline to clean power.

  4. Today

    17 people, one roof

    Hardware, firmware, cloud and AI in one Pune office — including the AI Design Studio, which turns a one-line idea into a costed BOM with a real power budget. RemotePCB builds the boards. When the network dies, our systems don't.

Principles

What we optimise for

Edge-first

The system must work when the network doesn't. Intelligence lives on the device; the cloud is a convenience, not a dependency.

Retrofit-friendly

We build for the buildings, wiring and workflows that exist — not the ones in a brochure.

Owned stack

Hardware, firmware, cloud and apps under one roof. When something breaks at 2 a.m., there's no vendor to blame — and none needed.

Unit economics

Every product must pay for itself — in saved energy, saved staff-hours or saved losses. If it can't, we don't build it.

Build things that run in the real world

We hire engineers who want their code on devices, in kitchens, on wards — not just in repos. Send us your work.
