Your Home, On Autopilot.
Clear, hands-on guides to the smart home gear worth installing: plugs, doorbells, thermostats, robot vacuums, locks, mesh Wi-Fi, lighting, cameras and smart speakers.
📡 Why We Built HomePilot
Our first smart home was a mess of apps that did not talk to each other, a doorbell that dropped off the Wi-Fi and bulbs that forgot their schedules. We spent more time fixing it than enjoying it.
HomePilot is the guide we wish we had. We compare popular, well-reviewed devices, read what thousands of owners say and explain which gear plays nicely together, so your home simply works.
