How we choose the products we install
We only install what works locally, without depending on the manufacturer's cloud, and we test it first on our bench.

We install home automation to last for years. That is why not every “Home Assistant compatible” device will do.
Our rules
- Local first. Everything is controlled from Home Assistant on your network, without the manufacturer's cloud.
- If something fails, the home keeps working. The usual switches still turn the lights on.
- Few brands. One option per role, and at most one alternative with a clear reason.
- Bench tested. Every model goes through 14 days of testing before we offer it.
Why it matters
Fewer brands means fewer updates to watch and fewer surprises. And if a brand's cloud service shuts down tomorrow, your home will not notice.
