QIIQ Home
Powerful smart-home technology, without becoming the system administrator.
A good setup should disappear into the house. QIIQ helps with the planning, software, and configuration so that it does.
The practical version
Setup and configuration, not a showroom.
QIIQ Home is technical work: Home Assistant, dashboards, automations, cameras, energy, heating, networking. The aim is a house that behaves, not a project that needs a Saturday every month.
It is the same studio as the business-systems work — a preference for simple systems that get used — applied to a house rather than an inbox.
What QIIQ Home covers
The software and systems layer of a smart home.
- Smart-home planning What is worth doing, what to leave, and how the pieces should relate — before buying another gadget.
- Home Assistant setup A working system, not a weekend lost to YAML and forum threads.
- Dashboards A house that can be understood at a glance, on a tablet on the wall or a phone in a pocket.
- Automations Lighting, presence, heating, and the boring routines — made reliable, then left alone.
- Lighting and device integration Getting mixed brands to behave as one system, instead of four apps.
- Energy monitoring Seeing what the house is using, and spotting the obvious waste.
- EV integrations Charging that fits the tariff and the household, not a separate hobby.
- Heating controls Sensible schedules and remote control, tied into the rest of the house.
- CCTV / Frigate Cameras that notify you about the things you care about, with recordings you can actually find.
- Network and server setup The unglamorous layer: Wi-Fi that covers the house, a small box that stays up.
- Backup and remote access So a holiday does not mean the house is unreachable, or a disk failure means starting again.
If the house is fighting you, say what you have and what you want it to do.
A model name, a sketch of the rooms, and the two things that currently annoy you is a useful start.
