Smarter Spaces: Building Intelligence with Clairco | Spill the C #14
Welcome to another episode of Spill the C!
This time, we’re heading indoors — to unpack how clean air, smart sensors, and intelligent automation are reshaping the buildings we live and work in.
Aayush Jha, Co-founder and CEO of Clairco, joins me to break down how their plug-and-play platform is transforming air quality, energy consumption, and space utilisation inside commercial buildings — all without any capex-heavy upgrades. We explore how Clairco is turning everyday spaces into intelligent environments using air purification, real-time sensors, and occupancy-based automation — to help businesses save energy, boost comfort, and build climate resilience from the inside out.
