Home Assistant Green is the easiest way into the most powerful smart home platform there is — and we set it up, connect it to everything you already own, and hand it over ready to use. No jargon, no half-finished automations, no five different apps.
What it is
Home Assistant Green is the official plug-and-play hub for Home Assistant — the open, brand-independent smart home platform used by millions of people worldwide. It arrives with everything pre-installed: plug in power and a network cable, and it's ready to start finding your devices.
Underneath the simple app is one of the most capable automation platforms available, with over 1,000 built-in integrations covering almost every smart brand on the market — so instead of five apps for five brands, you get one home for everything.
It's silent, fanless, and sips power — and because it does its thinking locally in your home rather than a manufacturer's data centre, it keeps working even if the internet goes down.
What it does
If it's got an app, there's a good chance Home Assistant can talk to it. Here's what that means in practice.
Lighting, heating, cameras, locks, alarms, sensors, speakers — brought together into a single dashboard instead of a home screen full of separate brand apps.
It sits alongside your existing Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa or SmartThings setup, so we can bring your current devices in gradually rather than replacing everything at once.
Lights that follow you between rooms, heating that responds to who's home, cameras that only alert you when it matters — set up once, running quietly forever.
Most of your data and automations run inside the Green itself, not on a company's servers — so your home keeps working during an outage, and stays yours.
No wireless radio built in, but we add the official USB radio where it's needed so battery sensors, smart bulbs and locks join the same system as your Wi-Fi devices.
Start with a handful of devices and expand over time — new rooms, new brands, new automations — without ever hitting a wall or needing to start again.
The app
The Home Assistant app is where the whole system actually lives day to day. Rooms across the top, your devices below, and a status you can read in half a second — no digging through menus to find the one switch you want.
We design your dashboard around how you actually use your home — the devices you check most sit right at the top — and set up notifications so it tells you what matters and stays quiet about the rest.
Away from home, it works exactly the same through the app on your phone, so the front camera, the heating and the lights are just as reachable from the office as the sofa.

How simple it is
Home Assistant is famous for being powerful — and for taking a weekend to set up if you're doing it yourself. We skip that part for you.
We talk through what you've already got — lighting, cameras, heating, alarms, anything else — and what you'd like it all to do.
We set up the Green on your network, add any wireless radios needed, and connect your existing devices and systems into it.
Rooms, devices and a first set of automations — set up around how you actually live, not a generic template.
We show you how to use it before we leave, and we're on hand afterwards as you add devices or want new automations.
Why it's worth it
Most smart home hubs lock you into one brand's ecosystem. Home Assistant does the opposite.
Mix Ring, Hue, Tado, Sonos and dozens of other brands in one system — buy what suits you, not just what one manufacturer's app supports.
Because automations run locally on the Green itself, your lights, heating and locks keep responding even during a broadband outage.
The core platform is free to run — an optional cloud add-on exists for easy remote access and voice assistant integration, but it's never required.
Reliable onboard storage, an active worldwide community, and new integrations added constantly — it's a platform you grow into, not out of.

Home Assistant Green processes and stores your automations and device data locally by default, rather than in the cloud — which means it keeps working if the internet drops, and you're not relying on a manufacturer's servers staying online.
The Green doesn't include a wireless radio out of the box. Where it's needed, we add the official USB radio dongle so battery sensors, smart bulbs and locks join the same system as your Wi-Fi devices.
