PRIZM Documentation
PRIZM is an end-to-end IoT platform. You register a device, group devices into a bundle, and draw your application as a blueprint on a drag-and-drop canvas. Deploying the blueprint pushes it to every device in the bundle, where it reads sensors and streams values into PRIZM Cloud as device fields. Those fields feed dashboards, alerts, and your own systems. There is no firmware to write and no server to run.

Where do you want to go?
Register devices and deploy an app from PRIZM Cloud, work back from a symptom in the field, move your data into your own systems, or read the board specifications.
Your first app in 4 minutes
Just unboxed your first PRIZM device? These four steps take you from an unregistered board to a deployed application.
Register Device
Before we begin, we need to register the device you purchased from the store. Registering is what puts the board in your company — enter the Device ID printed on it. See Devices.
Create Bundle and Add Device
A bundle is a logical grouping of devices that has the same application running. By adding your device to a bundle, we can effortlessly deploy application to thousands of devices. This step is not optional — an app is deployed to a bundle, never to a single device, so a device outside a bundle can never run one. See Bundles.
Create Fields to Send to Cloud
Before sending data to the cloud, we need to define the fields and their data types. Do this first — a value your app sends with no matching field is dropped on arrival. See Device Fields.
Create and Deploy Your First App
Now, let’s bring everything together! Drag and drop sensors into the app builder, connect to the cloud, and deploy your app.
