Hardware to start fast
Dev boards and hardware at store.siliconwit.io can get you to a working device faster.
Getting Started with SiliconWit.io
このコンテンツはまだ日本語訳がありません。
By the end of this guide, one of your devices will be live on siliconwit.io, reporting in real time and alerting you the moment a reading drifts. Add an automation rule and it can act on its own whenever it has something to control. You can start with a single sensor, and without committing anything. #IoT #GettingStarted #DeviceMonitoring
See It Work First
Before you sign up, you can watch the platform run on real data.
siliconwit.io/try lets you explore live data and dashboards with no account, and the public devices page shows always-on devices streaming in real time. When you are ready, a free account takes a minute.
From Zero to a Live Device
-
Create a free account. Sign up at siliconwit.io and open the dashboard. The free tier covers your first few devices, so there is nothing to pay while you learn the platform.
-
Add a device and get its token. From the dashboard, add a device. The platform issues a unique, per-device token so each device authenticates on its own. You choose how it will connect on the next step.
-
Connect it. Point a standard MQTT, MQTT-SN, CoAP, or HTTP client at the endpoints listed on mqtt.siliconwit.io, authenticating with your device token over a TLS connection. The documentation has setup examples for common boards such as the ESP32 and Raspberry Pi, and it works the same across WiFi, cellular, NB-IoT, and LoRaWAN networks.
-
See it live. Your device appears on the dashboard with its readings updating in real time. Add a chart for the values you care about, and you have the live view at a glance.
Make the Data Work for You
A live reading is useful; a reading that warns you and acts on its own is the point.
-
Set an alert. Choose a reading and a threshold (a temperature ceiling, a tank level, a vibration limit) and pick how you want to hear about it: email, SMS, Slack, Discord, or a webhook. Now you find out the moment something drifts, not hours later.
-
Add an automation rule. Go one step further than being told: have the platform respond. A rule can toggle a relay, change a setpoint, or send a command back to the device when a condition is met, with an approval step where a human should stay in the loop.
-
Let AI help. On the higher tiers, AI analytics flag anomalies and forecast trends, and the MCP integration lets you ask an assistant, in plain language, what your devices are doing and have it set alerts or change rules for you.
