Built for Indian homes
Imported smart-home platforms assume a single-family home, reliable mains power, no overhead water tank, piped gas, and a calendar of Western holidays. Indian homes don't work that way — and automation that ignores the difference ends up as expensive decoration.
The realities we design around
- Power cuts. Local controls still need power and functioning local equipment. Backup power must be planned separately from internet independence.
- Overhead water tanks. Water-level monitoring and pump control need reliable feedback and stop safeguards. Our pump logic still needs further safeguards and testing. It must not be relied on as tested flood protection or as a replacement for physical overflow protection and professional installation.
- LPG cylinders. Compatible sensors can support configured alerts and responses. Suitable equipment, professional installation and certified safety devices remain essential.
- Festivals & pooja. Scenes that understand the calendar — pooja lighting at sunrise, festival modes — instead of generic "holiday" presets.
- Joint & multi-floor families. Per-resident routines and floor-by-floor awareness need dedicated planning. Our current hardware prototype is in one room; the multi-floor app view uses sample data.
- Rental units. Access permissions and data separation between units need explicit configuration and testing for the proposed setup.
India has 300 million+ domestic LPG connections and serious, well-documented water stress — two everyday realities that imported smart-home kit simply doesn't address.

A long feature list means little if it doesn't map to your life. We start from the home — its floors, orientation, devices, and the people in it — and build automation around that, so the house understands where everything is and how your household actually runs.
