What does iotize mean ?

Transforming devices with connectivity for data access and remote control

"Iotize" refers to the process of making a device or system part of the Internet of Things (IoT). In practical terms, this involves equipping a device with sensors, software, and connectivity (such as NFC, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or cellular) to allow it to communicate, collect, and exchange data over the internet. By "iotizing" a device, you essentially enable it to be remotely monitored, controlled, and interacted with, often through an app or a cloud platform.

For example, "iotizing" a traditional appliance, like an electric heater, would involve adding the ability to control and monitor it via a smartphone or web app, making it a "smart" device.

Our no-code / low-code solution makes it easy to iotize products and systems. Our company has solved the technical challenges of data acquisition and communication with smartphones and the cloud so that you can focus on using that data to provide value-added features and services for your customers.

Where did the word iotize originate from?

"Iotize" combines "IoT" (Internet of Things) with the verb-forming "-ize" to mean "to make part of the Internet of Things."

The word "iotize" originates from the term Internet of Things (IoT), which refers to the network of physical devices embedded with sensors, software, and connectivity that allow them to communicate and exchange data over the internet. The suffix "-ize" is commonly used in English to form verbs that mean "to make" or "to cause to become" (e.g., digitize, modernize).

"Iotize" likely emerged informally within the tech community as a way to describe the process of integrating IoT capabilities into devices or systems, effectively turning them into "smart" or "connected" devices. While it’s not widely formalized in dictionaries, it has gained use in industries focused on smart technologies and IoT development.
