# Home Assistant by [Open Home Foundation](/organizations/open-home-foundation/) - **ID:** `b3198d7c-94be-48bf-a646-245e49ccb9b2` - **JSON API:** /api/v1/catalog/products/b3198d7c-94be-48bf-a646-245e49ccb9b2/ - **Slug:** home-assistant - **Product website:** https://www.home-assistant.io/ - **Organization website:** https://www.openhomefoundation.org/ - **Categories:** [Smart home control](/categories/smart-home-control/) ## Description Home automation software for controlling connected devices. ## AI-native score: Unrated Available here: [Task-completion verdicts](#jobs-to-be-done). Coverage measures research breadth across scored fields. Research coverage is 35/100. An AI-native grade requires 40/100. The provisional breakdown below shows the AI-native signals recorded so far. The AI-native score measures agent-readiness and is not a substitute for your own security or vendor-risk review. See [methodology](/methodology/) for how coverage and the grade are computed. | Component | Applies | Raw | Effective weight | Nominal weight | Contribution | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Integration | Yes | 1/10 | 35% | 35% | 3.5 | | Trust | Yes | 0/6 | 30% | 30% | 0.0 | | Portability | Yes | 4/4 | 20% | 20% | 20.0 | | Security | Yes | 1/4 | 15% | 15% | 3.8 | - **Integration signals:** Command-line interface (+1) - **Portability signals:** Open standards (+1); Standard protocol access (+1); No proprietary-SDK lock-in (+1); Self-hostable (+1); Open source (+1) - **Security signals:** MFA available (+1) ## Trust & Data Policy - **WebMCP:** – No - **Multi-factor authentication:** ✓ Available - **Open standards:** ✓ Yes - **Standard protocol access:** ✓ Yes - **No proprietary-SDK lock-in:** ✓ Yes - **Self-hostable:** ✓ Yes - **Open source:** ✓ Yes - **Not yet researched:** llms.txt, Headless signup, Trust center, Zero data retention, No generative AI training, Hard budget caps, Sandbox environment, Data export, Data import, Documented provider swap ## Confirmed absences These decision fields were researched and confirmed absent — not available based on current evidence, until contrary information supersedes the finding. Each carries the check performed, the page checked, and the date, so you can act on the negative without repeating the research. A label-scoped absence applies only to its label (e.g. no SOC 2 does not mean no certifications). - **A2A servers** — confirmed absent (whole field), checked 2026-10-14. Checked the product developer documentation for a2a servers; no supported interface is documented. Source: https://developers.home-assistant.io/ - **Web-MCP** — confirmed absent (whole field), checked 2026-10-14. Checked the product developer documentation for web mcp; no supported interface is documented. Source: https://developers.home-assistant.io/ ## Security & Compliance **Compliance certifications:** Not yet researched. **Access controls:** Not yet researched. ## Capabilities No capabilities listed. ## Jobs To Be Done From cited vendor documentation, each completion verdict says whether an agent can deliver the job's main outcome by and large through this product and which steps still need a person. Scope may limit cases or prerequisites while preserving that outcome. An unknown verdict means the answer is not yet established. - **Automate household devices** — Control connected devices and run home routines. - Route: API - Completion: Documented complete - Setup needs a human: Unknown - Per-task human step: Unknown - On behalf of a principal: Unknown - Scope: An authorized API caller controls configured connected household devices and runs configured home routines by invoking registered Home Assistant actions through the REST API, including scripts that perform a sequence of device actions. - Conditions: Requires a reachable Home Assistant installation with the API integration loaded, an access token for a user authorized for the requested actions, and configured integrations, devices and valid scripts for those actions. Script execution follows its configured single, restart, queued or parallel mode and concurrency limit; queued and parallel scripts default to a maximum of 10 running or waiting runs. Script state can be read to track whether it is running. This route covers actions and routines available on that installation. ## Offers No offers listed. ## Reviews No approved reviews yet. ## Benchmarks No benchmarks listed. ## Documentation No documentation links listed. ## API Specs Not yet researched. ## MCP Servers Not yet researched. ## A2A Servers Confirmed absent based on current evidence — no A2A servers.
