Gas boilers fire on demand: open the tap and hot water flows within seconds. This immediate consumption needs no planning. A heat pump works differently. Each kilowatt-hour of electricity delivers around five kilowatt-hours of heat, gradually. That brings greater efficiency but also thermal inertia. With planning, something Weheat Intelligence excels at, that inertia poses no problem. We asked CEO Martijn how it works and how Weheat Intelligence will increase homeowners’ savings.
“A heat pump does more than switch on: it predicts hot water demand, buys electricity at its cheapest and continually learns. That is impossible if half the system is a black box you cannot inspect or update. We therefore took control of both hardware and software. Think of Apple. Owning the entire stack lets you align every part with one goal: the best customer experience.
Because we specify the whole heat pump, from circuit board and casing to app and the last line of code, Weheat Intelligence has complete insight. We send an update overnight; you wake up with a system that understands your home a little better. One team owns the entire stack, making support clear and progress fast.”
“A thermostat only changes the setpoint; it cannot see what happens inside walls or pipes. Neither can solar panels or other energy devices. A heat pump reaches every room. Water circulates through floors and radiators all day, providing enormous amounts of data. We know how quickly each zone absorbs heat, how quickly energy escapes and when hot water demand peaks.
Weheat Intelligence looks hours ahead, studying tomorrow’s electricity prices, the weather forecast and your household’s characteristics. In future, it will precisely time operation so you get through the day on the cheapest, greenest energy. Perfect timing.”
“To do what we do, they would need to start again. You cannot simply bolt on software. Existing hardware was never designed to stream high-resolution data or receive frequent cloud updates. Retrofitting that is like trying to make a cassette deck beat a smartphone. We started with software-defined heating, so Weheat is ready for the future. Our customers continue benefiting: everyone who owns or buys a Weheat heat pump keeps receiving updates.”

“Absolutely! We reduce total ownership costs on several fronts:
• We preheat or precool when electricity is cheapest, or free from your solar panels, greatly reducing your energy bill.
• The platform continually fine-tunes temperatures and flow rates, saving additional euros each year without any action from you.
• Homes with gas-free heating already sell for 2–5% more.
• Monthly savings and higher property value make the investment both sensible and sustainable.
And we are far from finished: we are only just starting. Many more smart software updates will follow, increasing your savings further and helping accelerate the energy transition.”
“Development is in full swing. We start rolling out central heating features during heating season. Smart Planning is scheduled for early 2026. We then continue optimising and exploring new possibilities, delivered through software updates. Users receive detailed explanations of what changes and how they benefit.”

“Transparency is in our nature, and customers want it too. Installers and homeowners are very engaged and enjoy contributing and following progress. We take them through the Weheat Intelligence development journey step by step, with newsletters, articles, social media and in-app updates.”
Weheat Intelligence rolls out broadly from 2026. Stay informed by subscribing to our newsletter or following Weheat on Instagram and LinkedIn.
