A family-run smart home service from Melbourne's west — engineer-run, open-platform, and honest about what we do.
AI Smart Tech is a family-run business based in Melbourne's west, led by a chartered professional engineer. What that means for your home is simple: everything documented, a verified backup before every change, honest scoping, and no shortcuts — because "she'll be right" is never an acceptable answer.
The Home Assistant expertise comes from years of hands-on building and running real systems — solar, battery, EV charging, hot water and climate, all coordinated and refined daily. Every dashboard and automation you'll see on this site is running in a real home right now.
We build exclusively on the open Home Assistant platform because it's the opposite of lock-in: your hardware, your data, your admin account, from day one. If we disappeared tomorrow, your home would keep working — that's the point.
And because we're small, you always deal with the people who actually built your system — when you call, someone who knows your home answers.
An engineering charter doesn't make anyone a smart home expert — the Home Assistant depth comes from years of hands-on building, not the certificate. What the engineering background does bring is the discipline most of this industry lacks:
A rollback-first rule, always: nothing is touched without a verified restore point.
Your system comes with a record: what's installed, how it's configured, what changed and when.
Fixed quotes, no surprise extras — and if something's outside our depth, we say so and bring in the right partner.
We design and configure — the "brain" of your smart home. Any fixed mains wiring is done by our licensed electrician partner, and data cabling by an ACMA-registered cabler. You get one project, properly coordinated, with every trade doing what they're licensed to do.
Start with the quote form — or just ask us a question. We answer like neighbours, because we probably are.
