Hardware Integrations
A hardware-neutral Grow OS
Verdant Grow Diary is a hardware-neutral Grow OS.
It turns grow logs, photos, environmental readings, alerts, and AI-assisted insights into better cultivation decisions — without taking control away from the grower.
Read-only integrations are valuable. Verdant does not need full device control to create value. Grower stays in control. No blind automation.
Integration benefits
Why hardware integrations matter
Sensors, controllers, and cameras already produce the ground truth of a grow. When Verdant can read that data, every diary entry, alert, and AI suggestion becomes more grounded — and the grower spends less time copy-pasting numbers into a notebook.
Ideal integration data
Temperature, humidity, VPD, CO₂, soil moisture, light state and schedule, runoff pH/EC, photos, and event timestamps. Read-only telemetry is enough. Verdant does not require write access to your equipment.
What Verdant adds
A diary-first workflow, plant and tent tracking, environment alerts with an immutable audit trail, an AI Doctor that is cautious and suggest-only, and an approval-required Action Queue where every meaningful change needs a human in the loop.
Safe integration philosophy
Read first, suggest second, never execute on the grower's behalf. Verdant treats sensor data as ground truth and AI as a careful assistant. No blind automation. No silent device control. The grower stays in control at every step.
Integration paths
Verdant supports a spectrum of read-only paths, from enterprise-grade APIs to a single CSV export.
Open API
A documented read API for partners who want a first-class integration with structured telemetry and event ingestion.
Webhooks
Push readings and events to Verdant as they happen. Lightweight, asynchronous, and easy to retry.
CSV import / export
Bring historical logs or sensor data in by file. Useful for growers migrating from spreadsheets or proprietary apps.
MQTT
Subscribe to topic streams from existing controllers or DIY rigs. Read-only by default; no outbound control.
Home Assistant
Forward sensor entities from a Home Assistant instance. Use the integrations growers already trust.
Raspberry Pi bridge
A small read-only bridge that streams local sensor and camera data to Verdant without exposing the device to the internet.
Manual fallback
If a sensor cannot be integrated, the grower can always log readings by hand. Manual entries are first-class data in Verdant.
For growers with data already
Your grow history should not stay trapped in another app
Create a free account, set up one grow and tent, then import an AC Infinity export or another environment CSV from Sensor Data. CSV import and basic logging are free.
Verdant keeps every imported reading source-labeled as CSV history — never live telemetry — and places it alongside your diary and photos. AI Doctor can use that history as read-only background context while still distinguishing it from current manual entries or live telemetry. It never creates an action automatically.
- 1. Create your free accountNo hardware replacement required.
- 2. Add one grow and tentGive the history a truthful home.
- 3. Import from Sensor DataReview rows before anything is saved.
Sensor source labels
Verdant uses source labels on every reading so growers always know what data they are looking at. CSV and historical imports are never promoted to live. Demo data is never shown as live. Stale or invalid telemetry is never treated as healthy or current.
- Live
- Connected sensor ingest received from an active source.
- Manual
- Grower-entered reading or snapshot.
- CSV
- Explicitly labeled historical CSV context. Not live data.
- Demo
- Sample/demo data shown only in demo mode.
- Stale
- Previously valid reading that is too old to treat as current.
- Invalid
- Missing, malformed, unknown, or suspicious telemetry. Do not treat as healthy.
Partner value
Hardware partners reach growers who already log seriously and want their gear to be part of a complete cultivation record. Verdant promotes integrations that respect the grower's autonomy, never expose their data, and never automate their equipment without explicit approval.
