Every brand. One hub. The app you already use.
We put a small hub in your home with Home Assistant inside. Every device connects to it, whatever the brand. Your family uses it through the dashboards we design, or through Apple Home, Google Home or Alexa if that is what they already know.
From first call to a house that runs itself
Free 30 minute call
You tell us about the house, the devices you have and what you want it to do. We tell you plainly what is possible.
Look and quote
A site visit in Melbourne or a video walkthrough, then a fixed quote in writing. Nothing is bought before you agree.
Build
We back up first, then install, connect and test. Every change is written down.
Handover
Your dashboards, a walk-through for the household and a short written summary. Care plans from $49 a month are optional.
Your home, your data, your keys. We never watch cameras, track comings and goings or browse your history. How remote access works, in full.
Home Assistant can do almost anything. That is the hard part.
| On your own | With us | |
|---|---|---|
| Getting started | A weekend, a small computer and a lot of forum posts. | The whole house planned first, with a fixed quote before anything is bought. |
| Devices dropping off | Restart it and hope. | Zigbee, Thread and Wi-Fi laid out for your house, so devices stay connected. |
| The rest of the family | A screen only the builder understands. | App-style dashboards we design for your wall tablet and phone, that everyone uses. |
| Solar, battery and EV | Connected, each doing its own thing. | Coordinated, so the house uses its own power first. |
| When something breaks | Working out which of thirty devices is at fault. | A verified backup, a written record of the system, and us on the phone. |
| Three years on | Updates you keep putting off. | Kept up to date with a way back, if you choose a care plan. |

The screen the whole house uses
Many Home Assistant setups work well for the person who built them and badly for everyone else. We design app-style dashboards for wall tablets and phones, so the household uses the system without asking you.
Most homes fit one of our packages: HA Boost ($500 to $1,500) if you already run Home Assistant, Smart Home Starter ($1,500 to $3,000) or Smart Home Pro ($2,500 to $5,000). Every package includes app-style dashboards we design for your wall tablet and phone. See the packages.
Before you ask
Which areas of Melbourne do you cover?
We work on site across Melbourne metro. Outside Melbourne we work remotely anywhere in Australia, and we have delivered a full home in Perth that way.
How much does a Home Assistant installation cost?
Our packages are HA Boost (typically $500 to $1,500), Smart Home Starter ($1,500 to $3,000) and Smart Home Pro ($2,500 to $5,000). You get a fixed quote after the free call. New devices we supply are quoted separately.
Do you do electrical work?
Fixed wiring and cabling is done by licensed partners. We design the system, set up Home Assistant and every device, and build the dashboards and automations.
Do I have to pay a monthly fee?
No. You own the system outright. Our care plans start at $49 a month, are optional, and you can cancel anytime.
I already have Home Assistant. Can you still help?
Yes. That is what HA Boost is for, and it is delivered remotely.
