Suntide supports Solis and GivEnergy inverters today, with Fox ESS and Sigenergy in beta. SolarEdge and Anker SOLIX follow when the Suntide Link goes on sale. No engineer visit. No rewiring. You connect with a key from your own manufacturer account, which you can revoke. Suntide never asks for your password.

Meters, chargers and plugs
Your smart meter
Half-hourly readings through your supplier account, or near real time through a free Bright account (Hildebrand Glow) or an Octopus Home Mini. The meter is what your supplier bills on, so Suntide checks its own numbers against it.
Your car charger
Read, never commanded: myenergi Zappi with your own API key, and Ohme, Pod (Pod Point) and Hypervolt in beta with your own sign-in, never a password to us. The car then shows on your plan and in your day. Another brand? Name it when you sign up. Suntide reads the smart-charging slots your supplier plans and holds the battery through them, so it does not empty itself into the car. Suntide does not control chargers. The car and the battery.
Plugs and circuit meters
A Shelly energy meter on a circuit shows what the big things cost to run, priced as they ran and as they could have. The Suntide Plug does the same for one appliance, and is in pilot.

Not sure about yours?
Name your inverter on the first screen. If Suntide cannot read it yet, it says so before you go further, and what people name decides what is supported next.
