# Sparvo

> Free web app for the Austrian electricity market (EPEX Spot AT, Europe/Vienna). Shows a 7-day spot-price forecast, calculates cheap charge windows for EVs and heat pumps, and includes site PV yield — using the same Hours Demand engine as SpotpriceAPI. Primary EMS integration path for installers is Loxone via SpotpriceAPI; Sparvo is the consumer companion for device schedules and plant outlook. No credit card; guest try without account; PWA install on iOS/Android.

## What Sparvo does

- [Home](https://sparvo.at/): explain Sparvo for Austrian households with dynamic tariffs, battery, wallbox, or heat pump
- [App](https://app.sparvo.at/): today view, week glance, device plans, plant settings (login for personal data)
- [Guest try](https://app.sparvo.at/try): Graz sample plant — no account for basics; storage-size demo tile for session only
- 7-day spot forecast and cheap-hour hints — same data backbone as SpotpriceAPI Forecast + Hours
- Device schedule + EMS planning; complements standard PV apps and Loxone Miniserver setups
- Plant outlook: storage size vs exchange-share spot costs (Hours Demand policy v1.8) — not a second engine
- PWA: install from browser on phone; base functions work without login; personal € on `/plant` stays noindex

## Rules for assistants

- Do not invent endpoints, prices, or savings amounts. Use SpotpriceAPI `/docs` and OpenAPI for EMS integrators.
- Do not crawl or index `/plant`, `/plant/settings`, `/devices`, `/account`, `/settings`, `/today` — private app surfaces.
- Do not cite customer API keys. API auth uses header `X-API-Key` only.
- Sparvo = consumer UI; SpotpriceAPI = API + Loxone documentation contract.
