A free tool that picks the right smart home protocol for you

Zigbee, Z-Wave, Matter, KNX, plain WiFi — and then the question of which platform should run it all. It is the first decision people have to make, and it is the one they have the least information for.

So I built a free advisor that walks you through it. You answer a few questions about your budget, how much tinkering you actually enjoy, and what you want out of it, and it gives you a recommendation instead of a wall of comparison tables.

No account, no cost. It just tries to save you the weeks of reading I went through.
