For the technically curious. If you know what Home Assistant is, this is for you.
The most powerful open-source smart home platform. 2,000+ integrations, active community, local-first architecture.
Zigbee, Z-Wave, Matter, Thread, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, LoRa. Haven works with virtually every smart device brand on the market.
Camera AI, voice processing, and automations all run on your hardware. No cloud dependency, no latency, no privacy trade-off.
Immich-powered photo and video backup. Google Photos quality with zero cloud. Auto-organize, facial recognition, sharing — all local.
LoRa-based radio network for tracking pets, kids, and vehicles. 1–10+ mile range, no cellular, no subscription. Gets stronger as more people join.
Every piece of Haven's stack is open source. You can inspect, modify, or rebuild anything. No vendor lock-in, no black boxes.
If you already run Home Assistant, Haven is instantly familiar. We pre-configure the integrations, dashboards, and automations that take most people weeks to set up. You get a polished, production-ready system out of the box.
If you're an HA veteran who wants to know exactly what's under the hood before committing, you'll feel right at home. Everything is configurable, nothing is hidden, and you keep full SSH access to your own system.
Under The Hood
If you know what Home Assistant is, this section is for you. If you don't, everything above is all you need.
Haven runs on Home Assistant, the world's largest open-source home automation platform. Full local processing, no cloud dependency. Your instance, your hardware, your data.
Zigbee, Z-Wave, Matter, Thread, WiFi, Bluetooth, and ESPHome. Haven works with virtually any smart home device regardless of brand or protocol. No proprietary hub lock-in.
Haven ships with production-tested dashboards, automation blueprints, device naming conventions, and Mushroom card themes. Years of iteration compressed into a ready-to-deploy package.
On-device AI for system health monitoring, adaptive automations, and self-maintenance. No cloud AI services. Your voice processing, your data pipeline, entirely local.
Every configuration, automation, and blueprint Haven creates is standard Home Assistant YAML. Export it, fork it, modify it. If you leave Haven, you keep 100% of your setup. We use the Apache 2.0 ecosystem, not a proprietary layer.
The Haven Free tier gives you full access to our configurations and blueprints. Install HAOS however you want (Raspberry Pi, NUC, VM, Docker), apply Haven's package, and you're running the same system our Haven subscribers get, minus the managed services.
If you've been running Home Assistant for years and your setup is dialed in, Haven probably isn't for you. It's designed to be simpler and more approachable, which means opinionated defaults and guardrails that someone with your experience doesn't need. But if you've got parents, grandparents, or friends who keep asking how you made your house do all that stuff, Haven is the version you install for them. Use our themes, grab our blueprints, take whatever's useful. But the managed product is built for the people in your life who will never touch YAML, and that's on purpose.
