Problem
Home automation solutions are often fragmented across multiple apps, require invasive renovation work, or depend on cloud services that compromise privacy and system stability. Homeowners with new, recently renovated, older, or historic properties struggle to find a smart home system that is both comprehensive and non-destructive to their existing infrastructure.
Solution
Smartotum offers a wireless, modular home automation platform that centralizes control of lighting, temperature, shutters, security, energy consumption, and air quality into a single intuitive app. The system is designed to be installed without any masonry work, making it compatible with existing switches and outlets from all brands, preserving the aesthetic of any home. All data remains within the home, as the system operates independently of the cloud, ensuring privacy and continued functionality even during internet outages. Users can manage their home remotely, use voice commands through Google Home or Amazon Alexa, and set up automated scenarios and rules. The Smartotum Setup tool allows professionals to pre-configure projects in the office and install devices on-site even without power or internet connectivity.
