A smart home that works for you — not the other way around

Custom automation built on Home Assistant — open, local-first, and not tied to any single company's cloud. We design the system, wire it in, and teach you how to run it. From Ellicott City to Columbia to Clarksville, our plans account for larger lots and detached structures.

  • Built on Home Assistant — no forced subscriptions or cloud lock-in
  • Lights, locks, climate, and cameras working together, not in separate apps
  • Automations tailored to how you actually live, not generic templates
  • Full walkthrough so you're never locked out of your own home
  • Free on-site consultation before any commitment

What's included

A system you actually understand and control, not a black box tied to one company's app.

Planning session

We map out which devices and rooms matter most, and design automations around your actual routines, not a generic template.

Local-first build

Everything runs on Home Assistant, hosted locally in your home. Your automations keep working even if your internet goes down.

Full walkthrough

We show you how to add devices, edit automations, and troubleshoot — so you're never dependent on us for basic changes.

Home Assistant vs. Google Home / Amazon Alexa

Both can turn lights on and off. The difference shows up when something changes.

Home Assistant (What We Build)

  • Runs locally — works even without internet
  • No company can discontinue support and brick your devices
  • Combine any brand of device, no walled garden
  • Full control over automations and your own data

Google Home / Amazon Alexa

  • Cloud-dependent — no internet, no automation
  • Devices can be discontinued or de-featured remotely
  • Locked into one ecosystem's supported devices
  • Your usage data lives on their servers
