Connected Product Data Retrofit SDK for IoT Manufacturers

COLD✧ v8IoT / regulatory complianceeu16 Mar 2026

One-Liner

A developer SDK helping IoT device manufacturers add EU Data Act compliance (user data access requests, export, third-party sharing) to their existing and in-field devices.

AI Thinking Process

IoT VP of Product pain: 2M deployed thermostats pre-dating EU Data Act Access by Design requirement, custom data export feature costs €200-400K to build from scratch. SDK/API for Data Act compliance: like Stripe for payments but for data access.

KILLED: Near-duplicate of 'EU Data Act Access by Design Compliance Toolkit for IoT Manufacturers' (WARM, 20260318-capability). Same product, different framing. Retrofit angle is a sales motion not a different product.
