Say goodbye to chaos

when designing smart homes.

WelcomeStudio

How It Works
HOW STUDIO WORKS

From floor plan to a smart home plan.In hours, not weeks.

SMART CLIENT REQUIREMENTS WIZARD

Get everything you need from the client right from the start.

Send your client a link to a guide that walks them step by step through their situation, plans, priorities, expectations and smart home options. You get a complete, structured set of requirements ready for planning, without lengthy follow-ups or piecing information together from emails and notes.

INTELLIGENT FLOOR PLAN DIGITIZATION

From PDF or DWG straight to the project plan. No manual redrawing.

Upload a drawing and Studio makes sense of it automatically. It identifies floors, rooms, layers and areas, and extracts the information needed for planning. It turns the drawing into an editable format where you can switch layers, adjust rooms and start placing components right away.

AVE, THE AI AGENT FOR THE ENTIRE PLANNING PROCESS

Design with AI that understands the entire project.

Ave is with you throughout the entire process. It understands the floor plan and the full project context, works with your documentation and our knowledge base, and can look up information online. It recommends suitable technologies and functions and can place them precisely in the floor plan. You stay in control of every step and can adjust the plan at any time.

AUTOMATED CABLING DESIGN

From placed devices to cabling. Without manual drawing or calculations.

Place your devices and define the area containing the distribution board or rack. Studio automatically designs circuits, routes cables along walls or through spaces such as ceiling voids, and calculates the required cable lengths, including allowances. You can define wall and floor penetrations, main cable routes and no-go zones. You get a cabling plan, cable schedule and wiring diagram to support installation and quoting. Adjust the design yourself or through Ave. Everything recalculates automatically after each change.

INTELLIGENT PROJECT OVERSIGHT

Project Pulse: always know what to do next.

Project Pulse continuously monitors the entire project, tracks completed tasks, identifies gaps and suggests next steps. This way, you always know what matters most and what still needs to be completed to move the project forward.

PROFESSIONAL OUTPUTS DIRECTLY FROM YOUR PROJECT

Client, designer and contractor. Always on the latest documents.

From the client brief and the floor plan, Studio produces a complete smart home design, including documents for designers and contractors. Floor plans, component lists, the description of home behavior, the study and a preliminary quote are all generated from the current project data. When the design changes, one click prepares a new up-to-date version.

Component catalog, a searchable list of smart home components with technical specifications

Catalog of 1,000+ Verified Smart Home Components

Studio comes with a ready-to-use, validated catalog of components, including technical specs and datasheets. Use them directly in your plan, or add your own devices.

Canvas with floor plan, selected component and alignment guides

Place components exactly where they belong. No CAD required.

Work directly with components in the floor plan using the smart Canvas. Drag and drop, automatic snapping, alignment, rotation and copying help you create an accurate plan faster, without switching to CAD.

Ave automatically places components in the floor plan

Ave speeds up planning with smart component placement.

Ave understands the floor plan, rooms and client requirements and creates an initial component layout based on the project context. You can then move straight to reviewing, adjusting and refining the plan.

Duplicate a completed project or transfer selected components into another project

Reuse proven solutions across projects and get started faster.

Duplicate the entire project or carry completed parts of the plan, settings and components into new projects. For standardized homes and apartment units, build on what you've already solved instead of repeating the same work.

Incoming email becomes part of the project timeline and context, including attachments

From inbox straight into the project.

Each project has a unique email address. Simply send communication to it and Studio automatically links it to the right project. Messages and attachments become part of the project context, which Studio can work with, extract important information from and respond to.

Multiple collaborators, comments, tasks and live updates within a single project

Work together. Always on the latest version.

The whole team can work on one project at the same time. Everyone has access to the same data, comments and tasks, and changes sync in real time. No merging copies, forwarding versions or figuring out which file is current.

Floor plan with a heatmap of sensor coverage or lighting intensity

Show the coverage heatmap. Let the data speak for itself.

Get a clear visualization of coverage for client consultations. The heatmap in the floor plan shows sensor range or lighting intensity and updates instantly as components are moved.

Connected project context: documents, notes, emails, tasks and floor plans all in one place

Build a knowledge base for every project as you go.

Floor plans, documents, notes, tasks and communication gradually come together into a single project context. Studio and Ave understand how everything connects and can use this information throughout planning, review and the next steps.

WHERE WE'RE HEADED

We're gradually connecting the entire smart home lifecycle.

Today, we simplify smart home planning. Next, we'll add care for completed installations. Later, the same project data will automatically generate project documentation and programming.

Be among the first to try Studio

We're inviting only a few companies that design smart homes in real-world practice to the closed beta. You can try Studio for free on your own project, with personal onboarding and a chance to shape its further development. You'll get access within two weeks, not to a prepared demo, but to a real project for your client.
