Building a Smart Home? Start with the Lights — Not the Hubs.

Thinking about turning your home into a smart home? You're not alone. But here’s the mistake many people make: they start with the most complicated piece — the hub.

Instead of investing in a whole ecosystem just to control one light, what if you could get started with a single, offline switch that works out of the box?

The Hidden Complexity of Smart Home Hubs

Here’s what a typical “smart light” journey looks like:

  • 💡 Buy a smart bulb → needs a compatible switch
  • 🎧 Buy a smart speaker → needs an app to connect
  • 🔗 Download the app → create an account, link devices
  • 📡 Connect to WiFi → troubleshoot pairing errors
  • 🔐 Accept privacy terms → now they’re listening all the time

All you wanted was to turn on a light...
