IAMMETER Contributor Program

Build, Share, and Grow Together

IAMMETER is not just an energy meter manufacturer. We are building an open energy monitoring and optimization ecosystem, together with users, developers, and partners around the world.

Over the years, IAMMETER has grown thanks to real users — people who shared their experiences, integrated IAMMETER into new systems, wrote code, improved documentation, recommended our products, or simply gave honest feedback.

To recognize, encourage, and formalize this long-term mutual collaboration, we introduce the IAMMETER Contributor Program.


What Is the IAMMETER Contributor Program?

The IAMMETER Contributor Program is a long-term, open collaboration initiative.

It is designed for:

  • IAMMETER users
  • Developers and system integrators
  • Installers and solution providers
  • Content creators and educators
  • Anyone who helps IAMMETER grow in a meaningful way

This program is not a one-time campaign and not a paid review scheme. Instead, it reflects a simple belief:

Any contribution that helps IAMMETER grow — technically, commercially, or socially — is valuable, and deserves to be recognized.


Why We Believe in Mutual Contribution

Energy monitoring and solar optimization are real-world problems. The best solutions do not come from closed systems or isolated teams.

They come from:

  • Real installations
  • Diverse energy systems
  • Open integrations
  • Community-driven innovation

IAMMETER is built as an open platform:

  • Open APIs
  • Local data access
  • Cloud + local integration
  • Compatibility with Home Assistant, ioBroker, Node-RED, and more

This openness only reaches its full potential when users participate, share, and build together.


Types of Contributions We Encourage

We welcome all forms of positive, constructive contributions. Below are the main categories — each explained in detail in dedicated pages.


🔹 Content Contribution

Sharing real experiences and knowledge helps more users understand how IAMMETER works in practice.

Typical examples include:

  • Product reviews and user stories
  • Tutorials and how-to guides
  • Blog posts, forum discussions, or social media sharing
  • Videos or case studies

🔹 Technical Contribution

IAMMETER grows stronger when it supports more systems, scenarios, and integrations.

Typical examples include:

  • System integrations (Home Assistant, ioBroker, OpenEMS, etc.)
  • API wrappers, SDKs, scripts, or plugins
  • GitHub contributions and pull requests
  • Documentation improvements or translations

🔹 Other Meaningful Contributions

Not all valuable contributions fit into a single category.

We also appreciate:

  • Installer case studies
  • Market feedback and real-world insights
  • New application scenarios
  • Commercial or ecosystem collaboration ideas

If your contribution helps IAMMETER or the community, we want to hear about it.

  3. Review & feedback We review each contribution manually and respond with feedback, recognition, or rewards.

We intentionally keep this process human and flexible, because valuable contributions cannot always be measured by rigid rules.
