When the assistant reaches into the walls.
The final leap: Monty doesn't just live on a screen, it runs the house. One brain ties together lighting, sensors, bins, and the shopping list, controllable by voice or a tap.

One brain for the home
Smart devices usually mean a drawer full of apps that don't talk to each other. We pulled everything into a single self-hosted home brain, so it all works together, and Monty can reach any of it.
That means you can ask Monty in plain language, tap a tile on the kitchen wall, or let a routine handle it automatically. Same house, three ways to drive it.
Ask Monty to turn the lights off or check the bins, in natural language, from anywhere.
The kitchen wall display gives the whole household one-touch control, no account or app required.
Routines and schedules handle the predictable stuff so nobody has to think about it.
What it manages
Lights grouped by room, spanning bulbs and switches alike, whole spaces on or off in a single touch.
Always knows which bins go out and when, colour-coded and labelled so the right one hits the kerb.
A shared list anyone can add to from the kitchen, and fire off to a phone with one tap when it's time to shop.
The household diary, surfaced on the wall and in conversation, so everyone knows what's coming up.
Door, motion, and environment sensors give Monty real-world context to act on, not just guesses.
Keeps an eye on usage so the home runs a little leaner without anyone lifting a finger.
The kit, abstracted
A mix of off-the-shelf smart devices, unified under one roof, no single vendor lock-in, no cloud dependency for day-to-day control.
