Rekord IoT by Rekord AG
PROJECT OVERVIEW
Product: Rekord IoT, a hardware monitoring and analytics solution for IoT infrastructure
Company Name: Rekord AG
Industry: Internet of Things (IoT)
Project or app URL: https://www.rekord.io/
Geographic Reach: Global
BSV Integration Start Date: Early 2023
BUSINESS CHALLENGES
Inefficiencies or Risks in the Supply Chain:
Lack of trustworthy, tamper-proof data across devices
Data fragmentation and silos
Burdensome, manual compliance and audit processes
Why Traditional Systems Were Insufficient:
Centralized systems could not guarantee data integrity
High integration costs and interoperability challenges with IoT ecosystems
Inability to scale for real-time, high-volume data from smart devices

WHY BSV
BSV as the Ideal Solution:
High throughput: Proven capacity of 10M+ transactions/day
Predictable, ultra-low fees (fractions of a cent)
Immutable ledger perfect for compliance and auditing
Scalable data infrastructure for IoT's machine-to-machine demands
Comparison to Other Blockchains:
Ethereum and similar platforms were ruled out due to scalability limits and prohibitive gas fees
BSV’s unchanging protocol and microtransaction capabilities made it a standout
SOLUTION ARCHITECTURE
Rekord developed a full-stack solution combining hardware (VortexSV IoT gateway) and software (RIOT protocol) to write machine data directly to BSV’s public blockchain.
Key Components:
Data Logging: Real-time IoT data capture and on-chain recording
Tokenization: Not in current scope, though potential exists for future digital twin implementations
Partners/Vendors:
Collaborations with hardware manufacturers for gateway development
Strategic integration via Rekord's open APIs
IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS
Rollout Phases:
Prototyping and internal validation
Field deployment with early adopter partners
Live transaction scaling and ecosystem onboarding
ERP/SCM Integration:
Rekord APIs were designed to plug into enterprise systems without replacing them
Flexible architecture allows integration into existing compliance and logistics stacks
Stakeholder Onboarding:
Educational resources and developer toolkits via the Rekord Medium blog
Emphasis on enabling ecosystem developers to build atop Rekord’s infrastructure
OUTCOMES & BUSINESS IMPACTS
Quantifiable Improvements:
Blockchain transaction record shattered: 10M+ daily transactions
Operational cost savings due to negligible transaction fees
Real-time visibility improved auditability and data trust across the supply chain
Before vs After:
From centralized, siloed logs to immutable, verifiable records
From complex auditing to seamless on-chain traceability
Stakeholder Feedback:
Clients are impressed by audit simplification and tamper-proof logging
Increased confidence in data used for reporting, certification, and analytics
CHALLENGES & MITIGATIONS
Technical Hurdles:
Managing vast data throughput from IoT endpoints
Ensuring scalability without compromising speed
Mitigation via BSV:
Leveraged BSV’s stable, high-capacity blockchain for continuous uptime and scale
Offloaded data validation and persistence to the blockchain layer, simplifying backend requirements
FUTURE VISION
Expansion Plans:
Onboarding global OEMs, integrators, and logistics providers
Positioning Rekord as the standard for IoT x Blockchain integration
Planned BSV Enhancements:
Exploring NFT-based device identities
Enabling micropayments for machine-to-machine economic models
Developer Community Growth:
The Medium blog will be central to sharing use cases, tutorials, and platform updates to grow the ecosystem
TESTIMONIAL HIGHLIGHTS
James Marchant, Founder – Rekord AG:
“Our platform's ability to handle such a high volume of transactions demonstrates the scalability and robustness of the BSV blockchain.”
