About us
MarkeDroid grew out of a personal desire to create a smarter, greener home energy system that would maximize the benefits of renewable energy.
2019
The need for a smart charger led to an idea
Our story began back in 2019 as MarkeDroid’s CTO Toomas Kärner bought an electric car and started to look for a charger that would take the market price and available power into account for a more favorable cost scenario. Since he couldn’t find one, he built it himself, having been keen on the topic of time-specific energy consumption for years. He then soon configured the heating system of his home work at times when the market price was lower.
2022
From solar panels to an automated solution
After investing into solar panels in 2020, Toomas bought a battery and developed an automated solution that would help maximize the benefits of renewable energy during winter months. In 2022 he developed a formula for using his solar park to beat the market price and get more value from his investments into renewable energy. After monitoring and fine-tuning the logic and starting to see considerable returns, other people began to show interest in his solution.

The need for a new service that would enable homeowners to optimize their energy costs and get more value from their solar panels all year round became especially evident with the rapid increase in energy prices and the unexpectedly high electricity bills that many households faced in the fall of 2022. This led Toomas to join his know-how of the energy sector and background in IT with the expertize of a long-time colleague and seasoned product lead Toomas Teesaar to kick-start MarkeDroid in 2023 and build his solution into a solid application to offer it for other homeowners.
