The Local Control Platform

Edge Server

Secure. Flexible. Always running.

The whole platform on a $600 appliance on your own network, isolated or fully air-gapped, with no subscription. Or run it in our cloud. Either way your operation keeps running no matter what.

Everything you need, on site

Your sensors, your data, your control. Run locally with no cloud dependency.

Always-On Local Control

Edge Server runs fully on site. Sensors, controllers, and alerts keep working no matter what.

One Control Center

One screen for sensors, automation, alerts, tasks, and reports. Stop switching between tools and logins.

Air-Gapped If You Want It

Runs with no internet at all. Put it on an isolated VLAN or never connect it to the outside world. Nothing phones home.

Built for Growbud, Open to More

Works with Growbud sensors and controllers. It can also ingest other LoRaWAN devices.

Advanced Dashboards & Reporting

Optional advanced dashboards for historical trends, comparisons, and audits when you need deeper insight.

Provisioned in the USA, No Subscription

Imaged, hardened, and supported by Growbud in the United States, so the software supply chain is one you can audit. One price, no recurring fee.

Built for cultivation teams

Cultivation managers, facility operators, and growers need reliable control during critical grow phases. Edge keeps you running.

Deploy your way

One platform. Three ways to run it.

Your data should adapt as your facility grows. Start in the cloud, move on site, or run a hybrid setup. Configuration and historical data stay portable as you scale.

Start with Cloud for the fastest setup, or put an Edge on site for $600 and never depend on us being reachable. Your data and configuration move between them either way.

Growbud Cloud

Up and running in minutes.

Focus: Operational efficiency and remote access.

Access Growbud from anywhere with nothing to install. We handle updates, backups, and security. Your team always uses the latest version. Full REST API access connects Growbud to your existing tools and workflows.

Best for: Teams that want simplicity and quick setup.

Dedicated Cloud

Your own environment, managed by us.

Focus: Data isolation and enhanced security.

Get a private Growbud instance, fully separate from other customers. You get enterprise-grade security and data isolation with a managed service. We handle infrastructure and maintenance, so you get on-prem privacy without the IT burden. Complete API access supports custom integrations and reporting.

Best for: Organizations that need data separation without managing servers.

Fully On-Prem

Complete control on your network.

Focus: Security, compliance, and offline reliability.

Run Growbud entirely on your own network on the Edge Server appliance, $600 with no subscription. Your data never leaves your facility. The system works when the internet does not, or when there is no internet by design: isolated VLANs and fully air-gapped sites are the point, not an exception. Local BACnet/IP and REST endpoints integrate on your network.

Best for: Teams with regulatory, security, or offline requirements, and anyone who wants to own the box.

The hardware

One box. One price. Your network.

Edge Server is a small, quiet appliance that runs the entire platform on site. Plug it into the same switch as your gateways and it serves every room, house, and block on the property. It never needs the internet, and on a segregated or air-gapped network it never sees it.

Edge Server

$600

No subscription. Provisioned in the USA.

Isolated or air-gapped. Runs with no internet. Nothing phones home, nothing depends on the cloud.
AMD Ryzen 4-core / 8-thread, 16 GB RAM, 256 GB NVMe. Years of history for every device on the property.
Gigabit Ethernet to gateways and the BMS, plus Wi-Fi, USB-C, HDMI, and DisplayPort for a local console.
BACnet/IP and REST, served locally. The same API as the cloud, on your own subnet.
Imaged, hardened, and supported in the USA by Growbud, so the software supply chain is one you can audit.
5 × 5 × 1.7 in, quiet and low power. A shelf in the pump house is enough.

Data continuity as you grow

The deployment path you choose today does not lock you in forever. Many facilities start with Growbud Cloud for immediate data collection. When technical or security needs change, we can migrate your full system, including historical trends and SOPs, to Dedicated or On-Prem.

No data loss. No system downtime. No vendor lock-in.

Integrate with Your Existing Systems

Growbud data does not have to live alone. The Growbud REST API gives programmatic access to sensor readings, thresholds, and device information. Export history to your ERP or compliance platform. Trigger external workflows from environmental conditions. Build custom dashboards for your operation.

Available on every deployment option. Cloud, dedicated, or fully on-prem: API access works the same way.
