Built for Indian homes

Most smart-home tech is designed for a different house in a different country.

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. The system runs locally and keeps thinking through an outage, rather than going dark with the internet.
  • Overhead water tanks. Pump and overflow logic that's a first-class feature, not an afterthought — catching a stuck float valve before it floods or wastes water.
  • LPG cylinders. Gas-leak reflexes that act at the valve, because cooking gas is in nearly every kitchen.
  • 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, across a G+3 home, not a one-bedroom flat.
  • Rental units. Strict data isolation between a rented portion and the main house, enforced, not optional.

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.

Why context beats features

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.
