What the device measures
A single gateway device captures key data streams in real time:
What the platform turns it into
The Nexus Platform processes the data into insights teams can act on:
Happier residents and lower operational cost
Nexus Home turns everyday property data into measurable outcomes – moving you from reactive responses to proactive compliance.
How it works
The right insight, in the right place, at the right time
Nexus Home is designed to be genuinely simple to roll out – and just as easy to act on. There are three steps to take you from installation to insight.
01
Deploy
Chameleon’s in-home devices are plug-and-play. Our “post & play” approach, with built-in mobile connectivity, means devices roll out reliably at scale.
02
Capture
Once installed, devices continuously capture real-time energy and environmental data – including temperature and humidity – from each property. No manual readings, no waiting for the next survey cycle, no gaps in the picture.
03
Act
Nexus turns that continuous data into clear, property-level actionable insight, delivered through the Nexus Home portal, with dashboards, analytics and proactive alerts.

For more than 15 years, Chameleon Technology has helped businesses and consumers access real-time energy data through high-quality hardware. We’ve built our reputation on designing and manufacturing reliable devices at speed, at scale, and at a competitive price point.
Frequently asked questions
Nexus Home takes real-time energy and environmental data from residents’ homes – captured by Chameleon’s internet-enabled hardware devices – and transforms it into actionable intelligence. Its purpose is to help housing providers deliver safer, healthier and more compliant homes while lowering operational costs.
Nexus Home is designed for social housing providers, housing associations and private landlords. It supports multiple teams within a housing organisation, including asset management, sustainability, compliance and housing services teams, by giving each of them access to continuous, property-level data and insight relevant to their responsibilities.
Nexus Home continuously monitors real-time environmental data in each home, including temperature and humidity. It analyses this data to identify the conditions that lead to damp and mould before they become visible or serious, and sends proactive alerts and notifications so housing teams can intervene early.
Nexus Home provides continuous monitoring of home conditions and creates a clear audit trail showing that a provider is tracking those conditions and responding appropriately. This supports compliance with Awaab’s Law and wider housing health and safety standards by enabling proactive, evidence-based responses to hazards such as damp and mould, rather than reactive responses with limited supporting evidence.
Nexus Home is delivered in three steps: Deploy, Capture and Act. Chameleon’s in-home devices are plug-and-play and use a “post & play” approach with built-in mobile connectivity and fleet management, so they can be rolled out reliably at scale without complex installation. Once installed, the devices continuously capture real-time energy and environmental data from each property. This data is then delivered as insight either through the Nexus portal – which provides dashboards, analytics and alerts – or via APIs that integrate directly into a provider’s existing housing management or repairs systems.
Yes. Nexus Home offers flexible delivery. Insight can be accessed through the Nexus portal, or delivered via APIs that integrate directly into an organisation’s existing platforms, such as housing management or repairs systems. This means Nexus Home can work within the tools housing teams already use, rather than requiring a separate, standalone system. Providers can choose the portal, API delivery, or both.
Yes. Chameleon Technology is an ISO9001, ISO14001 and ISO27001 certified business. ISO27001 certification relates specifically to information security management, meaning data is handled securely at every stage of its lifecycle – from capture in the home through to insight delivery. These certifications are intended to give both housing teams and residents confidence in how information is collected, managed and used.
