About
AlertMe was a British smart home technology company founded in Cambridge in 2006 by Adrian Critchlow and Pilgrim Beart. The company developed hardware and software enabling homeowners to monitor and control their energy use via a Zigbee-connected hub ecosystem, with core applications including SmartEnergy, SmartHeating, and SmartMonitoring. AlertMe built strategic partnerships with British Gas in the UK and Lowe's in the United States, and its Honeycomb platform became the backbone of British Gas's Hive Active Heating product. In June 2015, British Gas (Centrica) acquired AlertMe for approximately £65 million; the legal entity was subsequently renamed Centrica Connected Home Limited in April 2016.
