Hi Product Hunt, I'm Georgy, and I build gethome on my own. tl;dr: a smart-home hub you run yourself, an iPhone app for the whole family, and an agent that turns a sentence into a rule. The smart homes I tried came in two kinds: a cloud hub that works until its company changes its mind, or a hub of your own and a weekend of configuration before the first light switches on. I wanted the second without the weekend, with AI doing the part that was always tedious. What it does today: • A hub you own. Software for a small computer such as a Raspberry Pi, on your own Wi-Fi. Matter devices, Zigbee devices through a USB stick, and your own hardware over MQTT. No account and no gethome cloud. • A native iPhone app, free on the App Store, for everyone in the home: rooms, scenes, history, widgets, and roles for family and guests. • Rules you describe. Say "turn the hallway light on when the front door opens between 11 pm and 6 am" and an agent writes the rule, draws it as a flow, and saves it switched off until you turn it on. • An assistant you type to or talk to. It answers about the home, works devices, presses scenes, and hands rules to the automations agent. • Devices it has never seen. Pair a Zigbee device the hub doesn't know and an agent works out what it is, so it gets real controls instead of a blank tile. • Setup from a Mac with gethome studio, with no terminal and no code to type. Or one line on the Pi itself. What it doesn't do yet, so nobody finds out the hard way: • It works on your own Wi-Fi only. Control from away is planned, not built. • iPhone only. No notifications, no cameras. • The AI is Anthropic's or OpenAI's, on your own key, billed by them (voice needs an OpenAI key). Without a key the hub still runs your devices and rules, and flags devices it can't place as "needs review". • No hub yet? The app can open your Apple Home or a demo home, but the assistant, rules, history and widgets need a hub. If you're wondering how it compares with Home Assistant, here is an honest page, including where Home Assistant is ahead: https://gethome.me/compare/home-... What I'd love to hear: what you would automate first, and what stopped you the last time you tried a smart home.
