This is home automation for how you really live. No programming, no compatibility issues. Just a pure and simple system that learns how you live.
How much time do you spend doing the same routine things—turning lights off that kids have left on, checking doors and windows, adjusting temperature? How often do you wonder if you left a door unlocked back home? How great would it be to have these things done automatically, or with a few taps on your phone?
Hands up if you like saving money. Yeah, we thought so. Figuring out how to use the exact optimal amount of heating and electricity to get maximum comfort bang for your utility buck could be a full-time job. It’s a job otto is all too happy to do.
Let’s face it—some of the most shady characters you want to keep out of your home are the people selling home security systems. The ones with high installation costs and locked-in monthly monitoring charges. With otto, you get reliable built-in security features, with no contracts and no ongoing fees.
When you save energy, you save money. But even more than that, when you are smart about saving energy, you are doing your part to save the planet. Energy waste affects us all. And otto makes it easy for you to use energy smartly.
Did you lock up when you left? Which family members are entering or leaving your home right now? With otto, the answers are always a screen-glance away.
If there is any suspicious activity around your home—such as attempts at entry that otto doesn’t recognize—otto will alert you to the situation.
With otto, you can program the right “welcome home” heat and lighting settings to come on automatically at the right time, or you can adjust them remotely, as you need.
What if we could live in a home environment that consistently sensed our needs and automatically optimized our energy usage? What if we could redefine our notions of liveability and sustainability? What if our homes came with built-in security features and built-in learning algorithms? What if our homes adapted to how we live?
Those are the questions that drove the thinking behind otto. We live in a world that is rich with data—data we are finding new ways to use to improve our lives.
We do it with our personal devices, our fitness technologies, our cars. Now it’s time to bring it home.
Otto goes deep with home automation, becoming a barely noticeable yet indispensable part of daily living for those who use it. It changes the way people live, and because it is smart about collecting information on a large scale, it is destined to change the way builders, energy providers, and other home professionals think about the future.
