Mission
Turn complex energy data into clear, timely guidance so people pursuing energy independence can act before power problems become crises.
About Ungrid
Built for people who depend on the power they produce.
Ungrid began with fully off-grid systems, where every watt and weather shift can matter. It is also for grid-connected people pursuing energy neutrality and operating with the same care, independence, and attention to reserve power.
Purpose
Make energy independence feel dependable.
Vision
A world where people can depend on their own energy systems with confidence—whether fully off-grid or progressing toward energy neutrality.
Know what changed. Know what matters. Know what to do next.
Origin Story
Matthew came up with Ungrid after getting tired of manually monitoring his farm well and personal electricity system. There was plenty of raw inverter data, but too little clear direction about when something actually mattered and what to do next.
First off-grid seasons
Matthew got tired of checking his farm well and personal power system after every weather swing, overnight load spike, and low-battery morning.
The spreadsheet era
He built scrappy SOC trackers and weather sheets to predict bad battery mornings. Useful, but fragile and impossible to scale.
Ungrid is born
Ungrid started as a practical tool for his own systems: one clear signal, an early warning when reserves are at risk, and guidance that makes the next decision easier.
Values
Control stays with you
Ungrid is read-only. It helps you understand and act while your equipment, settings, and decisions remain yours.
Trust is earned
We explain what we know, show when data is delayed, protect your information, and make claims we can support.
Reliability is the product
Monitoring matters only when it is dependable. Clear system states, disciplined delivery, and predictable behavior come first.
Signal over noise
Every alert should answer three questions: What changed? Why does it matter? What can I do next?
Calm by design
Urgency should match reality. Ungrid stays quiet when no action is needed and speaks plainly when attention is warranted.
Built for reality
Weather, loads, batteries, and connectivity are imperfect. Ungrid reflects that complexity without passing the burden on to you.
Practical agency
Good guidance should help you make a confident decision, not create dependence on another opaque system.
Accessible protection
Dependable monitoring should not require new hardware, a complex installation, or an expensive starting point.
