Miraie is an IoT & AI-enabled platform designed to enhance the connected living experience. The company launched the platform in 2020 and has seen 70 per cent of its air conditioner consumers using the platform.

In the near future with Miraie, the company said that users can seamlessly control and monitor a wide range of smart appliances, including air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, and more irrespective of the brand. "Panasonic Air Conditioners will not only provide a more convenient and integrated living experience but also contribute to reducing energy consumption. By seamlessly connecting with other Matter-certified devices and platforms, they will facilitate a smarter and more efficient use of energy," said Fumiyasu Fujimori, Managing Director, PMIN, Panasonic Life Solutions India.
