Understand this story
Tado has announced that its X-series thermostats and app will receive software updates including AI-based open-window detection. According to heise online, the update uses AI to learn the typical patterns of each room in order to detect open windows more reliably, especially in spring and autumn when the temperature difference between indoors and outdoors is small. Room-specific learning is free for all Tado X devices; however, automatically pausing heating after a window is opened remains part of the "AI Assist" subscription at €4 per month or €30 per year, and free users only receive a push notification. Subscribers will also get a mold index that evaluates temperature and humidity changes and predicts mold risk. The update is currently at the announcement stage, with no subsequent developments yet.

Tado uses AI to improve open-window detection, but automatic heating pause remains subscription-only
Tado has released a software update for its X-series thermostats that uses AI to learn the typical patterns of each room in order to detect open windows more reliably, especially in spring and autumn when the indoor-outdoor temperature difference is small. Room-specific learning is free for all Tado X devices, but automatically pausing heating after a window is opened remains exclusive to the "AI Assist" subscription at €4 per month or €30 per year; free users only receive a push notification. Subscribers will also get a mold index that assesses temperature and humidity changes and predicts mold risk.
