We will not support their users and you will get a subpar Home Assistant experience by using their product. Furthermore, we cannot guarantee stability or security if you use Senic products. +

+ +

Recently Home Assistant has been made aware of a product by Senic that will be launching later today on Kickstarter (screenshot). Senic is not new in the IoT business, we have had support for their first product (Nuimo) since last September. Their new product, COVI, uses Home Assistant as its core home automation codebase. This is great, that is what open source is all about. However, they also use our name and logo in their Kickstarter, with the press and in their developer documentation (screenshot) to give the appearance of being affiliated with Home Assistant, against our wishes. Which is not great, at all.

+ +

Take some of the following quotes from their Kickstarter campaign:

+ +
+

COVI is built on an open source platform. The Senic team, along with outside developers, contributes to this platform to create the integrations for COVI.

+
+ +
+

With COVI, we have built upon an open platform called Home Assistant that anyone can contribute to alongside our engineers and the Home Assistant community.

+
+ +

Although those quotes are technically correct, they are very misleading. The Senic team contributes only to their own platform, they have not contributed to Home Assistant, its integrations or related projects. We did receive 1 contribution from them for Netdisco, our network discovery package. It included a memory leak and required us to publish a hotfix release for the 0.39 series. Their contribution has since been reverted. A third party contributor had contributed support for their Nuimo controller.

+ +

Here is a quote that their CEO Tobias Eichenwald gave to Forbes:

+ +
+

Unlike many larger companies who build closed automation platforms, COVI is built on an open source platform called Home Assistant that includes 500+ contributors. This allows COVI to be integrated into any ecosystem or platform with an open API.

+
+ +

They reached out to us on April 7 (screenshot). We replied on April 11 and told them they should not use our name as we do not want to be affiliated with them because we do not want to support their users. After that one e-mail we had never heard from them again until Forbes accidentally published an article about it before the Kickstarter launched. We did not get any chance to give feedback on their Kickstarter campaign content and they went ahead and used our name and logo without authorization or permission.

+ +

If you want an open source and constantly evolving product, get yourself a $35 Raspberry Pi, install our hub Hass.io for free and buy yourself some cheap and reliable IKEA Trådfri lights to get yourself a basic home automation setup. If you want a $250 talking lamp, go buy the COVI. Just know that we are not affiliated with Senic, we will not support their users and you will get a subpar Home Assistant experience by using their product. Furthermore, we cannot guarantee stability or security if you use Senic products.

+ +

Senic, we know that this is probably not what you wanted to wake up to on the first day of your Kickstarter but you left us no choice. Please reach out to us to help make this right. We will always do everything in our power to protect the best interests of the Home Assistant community, our 500+ contributors and 250,000+ users. If we don’t hear from you by Wednesday, June 21st, we will be forced to consider further actions.

Sincerely,

    The prize beside the very nice trophy contains hardware and we want to give that hardware partically away. We won four Low Energy Server v2 (LES) units with an Intel Celeron N2930, 8 GB of RAM, and a mSATA of 128 GB (one unit with 64 GB). We were thinking about to keep one of those units in Europe and one in North America for testing and to use during workshops and events. But the other two will go to interested parties.

    As a raffle would be to easy, we make a contest out of it. This means that we are looking for your application. Of course, we would like to see those systems goes to active or future developers who can justify their need for one of the systems to run CI, UI tests, public accessible Home Assistant demo instances, etc. At the other hand we would like to keep it open, to see with what people are coming up. Please participate as well if you are planning to automate the public school of your kids with 1000 switches or light, need a server to run it, and want to provide regular feedback about the user experience.

    The decision of the jury will be final. If there will be a dispute then the Top-5 commiter of the Home Assistant organisation on Github will decide.

    Keep in mind that you may have to pay the fee for customs handling and the import duty by yourself. The plan is to ship the hardware from Germany. If you are located in a country with import/export regulations, we may not be able to ship the hardware to you.

      A frank and serious warning about Senic COVI

      +TL;DR: We are not affiliated with Senic or their COVI product. We will not support their users and you will get a subpar Home Assistant experience by using their product. Furthermore, we cannot guarantee stability or security if you use Senic products. +

      +

      Recently Home Assistant has been made aware of a product by Senic that will be launching later today on Kickstarter (screenshot). Senic is not new in the IoT business, we have had support for their first product (Nuimo) since last September. Their new product, COVI, uses Home Assistant as its core home automation codebase. This is great, that is what open source is all about. However, they also use our name and logo in their Kickstarter, with the press and in their developer documentation (screenshot) to give the appearance of being affiliated with Home Assistant, against our wishes. Which is not great, at all.

      +

      Take some of the following quotes from their Kickstarter campaign:

      +
      +

      COVI is built on an open source platform. The Senic team, along with outside developers, contributes to this platform to create the integrations for COVI.

      +
      +
      +

      With COVI, we have built upon an open platform called Home Assistant that anyone can contribute to alongside our engineers and the Home Assistant community.

      +
      +

      Although those quotes are technically correct, they are very misleading. The Senic team contributes only to their own platform, they have not contributed to Home Assistant, its integrations or related projects. We did receive 1 contribution from them for Netdisco, our network discovery package. It included a memory leak and required us to publish a hotfix release for the 0.39 series. Their contribution has since been reverted. A third party contributor had contributed support for their Nuimo controller.

      +

      Here is a quote that their CEO Tobias Eichenwald gave to Forbes:

      +
      +

      Unlike many larger companies who build closed automation platforms, COVI is built on an open source platform called Home Assistant that includes 500+ contributors. This allows COVI to be integrated into any ecosystem or platform with an open API.

      +
      +

      They reached out to us on April 7 (screenshot). We replied on April 11 and told them they should not use our name as we do not want to be affiliated with them because we do not want to support their users. After that one e-mail we had never heard from them again until Forbes accidentally published an article about it before the Kickstarter launched. We did not get any chance to give feedback on their Kickstarter campaign content and they went ahead and used our name and logo without authorization or permission.

      +

      If you want an open source and constantly evolving product, get yourself a $35 Raspberry Pi, install our hub Hass.io for free and buy yourself some cheap and reliable IKEA Trådfri lights to get yourself a basic home automation setup. If you want a $250 talking lamp, go buy the COVI. Just know that we are not affiliated with Senic, we will not support their users and you will get a subpar Home Assistant experience by using their product. Furthermore, we cannot guarantee stability or security if you use Senic products.

      +

      Senic, we know that this is probably not what you wanted to wake up to on the first day of your Kickstarter but you left us no choice. Please reach out to us to help make this right. We will always do everything in our power to protect the best interests of the Home Assistant community, our 500+ contributors and 250,000+ users. If we don’t hear from you by Wednesday, June 21st, we will be forced to consider further actions.

      +

      Sincerely,

      +

      + A frank and serious warning about Senic COVI +

      +TL;DR: We are not affiliated with Senic or their COVI product. We will not support their users and you will get a subpar Home Assistant experience by using their product. Furthermore, we cannot guarantee stability or security if you use Senic products. +

      +

      Recently Home Assistant has been made aware of a product by Senic that will be launching later today on Kickstarter (screenshot). Senic is not new in the IoT business, we have had support for their first product (Nuimo) since last September. Their new product, COVI, uses Home Assistant as its core home automation codebase. This is great, that is what open source is all about. However, they also use our name and logo in their Kickstarter, with the press and in their developer documentation (screenshot) to give the appearance of being affiliated with Home Assistant, against our wishes. Which is not great, at all.

      +

      Take some of the following quotes from their Kickstarter campaign:

      +
      +

      COVI is built on an open source platform. The Senic team, along with outside developers, contributes to this platform to create the integrations for COVI.

      +
      +
      +

      With COVI, we have built upon an open platform called Home Assistant that anyone can contribute to alongside our engineers and the Home Assistant community.

      +
      +

      Although those quotes are technically correct, they are very misleading. The Senic team contributes only to their own platform, they have not contributed to Home Assistant, its integrations or related projects. We did receive 1 contribution from them for Netdisco, our network discovery package. It included a memory leak and required us to publish a hotfix release for the 0.39 series. Their contribution has since been reverted. A third party contributor had contributed support for their Nuimo controller.

      +

      Here is a quote that their CEO Tobias Eichenwald gave to Forbes:

      +
      +

      Unlike many larger companies who build closed automation platforms, COVI is built on an open source platform called Home Assistant that includes 500+ contributors. This allows COVI to be integrated into any ecosystem or platform with an open API.

      +
      +

      They reached out to us on April 7 (screenshot). We replied on April 11 and told them they should not use our name as we do not want to be affiliated with them because we do not want to support their users. After that one e-mail we had never heard from them again until Forbes accidentally published an article about it before the Kickstarter launched. We did not get any chance to give feedback on their Kickstarter campaign content and they went ahead and used our name and logo without authorization or permission.

      +

      If you want an open source and constantly evolving product, get yourself a $35 Raspberry Pi, install our hub Hass.io for free and buy yourself some cheap and reliable IKEA Trådfri lights to get yourself a basic home automation setup. If you want a $250 talking lamp, go buy the COVI. Just know that we are not affiliated with Senic, we will not support their users and you will get a subpar Home Assistant experience by using their product. Furthermore, we cannot guarantee stability or security if you use Senic products.

      +

      Senic, we know that this is probably not what you wanted to wake up to on the first day of your Kickstarter but you left us no choice. Please reach out to us to help make this right. We will always do everything in our power to protect the best interests of the Home Assistant community, our 500+ contributors and 250,000+ users. If we don’t hear from you by Wednesday, June 21st, we will be forced to consider further actions.

      This release brings some great new integrations. The biggest one is the native ZigBee integration by Russell Cloran. This will allow Home Assistant to natively control Philips Hue lights without the need for a hub! (IKEA Tradfri lights not yet due to implementing a different profile)

      -

      Another great new addition is OpenCV by Teagan Glenn. So now you’ll be able to unlock all the cool stuff from OpenCV right in Home Assistant. And if OpenCV is not your style, you can try out the new DLib integration added by Pascal Vizeli in this release.

      -

      This release also includes a new component to dynamically generate RSS feeds based on a template. This means that any RSS widget on your phone, tablet or computer can now be used to show Home Assistant data!

      -

      And finally, for users of the config panel in the UI, we have fixed the issue with the group editor.

      Enjoy!

      I would like to give a shout out to Greg Dowling (@pavoni) as every release includes new work from him. He is constantly adding support for new platforms or improving the reliablity of existing components and platforms. Keep up the good work!

      Around a week ago we started with the first survey. Now 30 people have participated. Thank you very much if you did. We think that’s enough time to have some “only partially representative” data. It’s hard to tell how many Home Assistant users are out there. Currently there are 215 members in our Gitter chat room and last week PyPI counted 5063 downloads.

      -

      The idea was to anonymously collect some details about the usage of the different parts of Home Assistant and a little bit about the environment its running in.
