The buyer is an owner or operator of a smart building retrofit & monitoring business who is currently running the work across a calendar, a phone, a notebook and a separate invoicing tool. xBUILDINGIQx replaces that with one record per customer and one record per job, carried from intake through pricing, dispatch, proof of work, invoice and settlement. ## Category Emerging & Frontier — Markets forming right now. The operator who owns the operating system owns the category. ## What the platform assesses Meter and sensor time series find the schedule faults, setpoint drift, and equipment cycling that waste the most energy. The assessment never sets prices. Quantities come from what was measured or counted; rates come from the operator's own book. That is what makes two people pricing the same job land on the same number. ## How work is priced audit fee, retrofit priced per measure, monitoring billed per square foot monthly ## Records the workspace keeps - Building record: systems, square footage, occupancy schedule - Energy baseline by meter and end use - Retrofit measure list with modeled savings and payback - Sensor and controller inventory with commissioning status - Measurement and verification report per period ## Workflows it ships with - Energy audit → baseline → ranked retrofit measure list - Retrofit installation with commissioning verification - Continuous monitoring with fault detection alerts - Measurement and verification reporting against the baseline ## Modules - CRM (Contacts, Companies, Deals) - Calendar & Meetings - Tasks - ERP - Work Orders - Client Portal & Intake - Invoices - Payments & Checkout - Messaging (Email, SMS, Voice) - Campaign Manager - XODIAK Chain & Treasury - Analysis & Insights - ERP - Inventory - ERP - Vendors & Purchasing - Deal Rooms - Knowledge Graph & RAG (Axon) - Partners & Revenue Share ## Integrations wired first - Building automation systems - Utility interval data - Incentive and rebate programs - Stripe recurring ## The numbers the owner checks - Verified savings per building per year - Retrofit payback period achieved versus modeled - Monitoring subscription retention - Faults detected and resolved per quarter ## Who buys - Commercial office and retail property owners - Schools, municipalities, and healthcare campuses - Multifamily operators with common-area load ## What hurts without it - Retrofits sold on modeled savings that nobody ever verified - Building automation systems drifting out of schedule unnoticed - Incentive programs missed because the paperwork lagged the install ## How the business makes money - Energy audits and retrofit projects - Monthly monitoring and fault detection subscriptions - Measurement and verification reporting with incentive capture ## What it costs - The workspace opens free, scaffolded with all 16 modules. - Premium surfaces unlock individually — monthly, or a 24-hour unlock. - Credits: $20 for 500 XDK, spendable across any surface. Balance carries. - Multi-branch and own-domain deployments are quoted per market. There is no published per-seat subscription tier for this vertical. Any figure quoted elsewhere as a xSERVICESx monthly price is not ours. Ask. ## Frequently asked ### Is xBUILDINGIQx a separate product from the Biz Dev App? No. xBUILDINGIQx is the smart building retrofit & monitoring configuration of the Biz Dev App — the same platform, the same ledger, the same support, scaffolded with the 16 modules and 5 record types this trade actually uses. If the business later adds a second line of work, it does not mean a second subscription; it means another vertical switched on in the same workspace. ### How does xBUILDINGIQx price a job? On audit fee, retrofit priced per measure, monitoring billed per square foot monthly. The basis lives in the workspace rather than in an estimator's head, so the same job quoted by two people produces the same number. Your own rates, your own catalogue — the platform supplies the structure and the arithmetic, never the prices. ### What does it connect to that we already use? Building automation systems, Utility interval data, Incentive and rebate programs, Stripe recurring are wired first, because those are what a smart building retrofit & monitoring business is usually already running. Anything else goes through the xCONNECTx public API catalogue rather than a custom build. ### What happens to the data we already have? It comes in. The archive import pipeline takes historical customers, jobs and invoices and lands them as real records — searchable, reportable, attached to the right customer — rather than as a folder of PDFs nobody opens. The point of moving is to keep the last five years, not to start over. ## Built on Biz Dev App xBUILDINGIQx is one of 74 service verticals on the Biz Dev App — the operating system for the AI economy. The leading and trailing x are platform brackets: Cross-Connect Protocol in, Cross-Connect Protocol out. Every vertical shares one identity, one ledger (XODIAK) and one settlement rail, so a business that runs two lines of work runs them in one workspace rather than two subscriptions. ## Nearby verticals - xEVMOBILEx (Mobile EV Charging) — https://thebdapp.com/xevmobilex - xDRONEDROPx (Drone Delivery Operations) — https://thebdapp.com/xdronedropx - xCARBONx (Carbon Accounting & Offset Services) — https://thebdapp.com/xcarbonx - xDISASTERx (Disaster Recovery & Restoration) — https://thebdapp.com/xdisasterx ## Key pages - https://thebdapp.com/xbuildingiqx — this page - https://thebdapp.com/xbuildingiqx#how — intake, price, dispatch, prove, settle - https://thebdapp.com/xbuildingiqx#workspace — the module inventory - https://thebdapp.com/xbuildingiqx#operations — records, workflows, integrations, KPIs - https://thebdapp.com/xbuildingiqx#signals — how the platform finds work before it is advertised - https://thebdapp.com/xbuildingiqx#cost — what it costs - https://thebdapp.com/x/smartbuilding — the vertical inside the app - https://thebdapp.com/xservicesx — all 74 verticals - https://thebdapp.com — the platform ## Contact - Email: bill@bdsrvs.com - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BizDevService - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/64721742/ - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebdapp/ ## Last updated 2026-09-15
