Planta Smart Homes · Physical AI
Sensors, walls, rooms and apps — one calm, sustainable system. Save millions with tailor-made solutions.
Trusted Partners
Physical space, connectedA highly scalable Physical AI startup
Planta Smart Homes transforms the flows inside homes, buildings, factories and cities into intelligence. Energy, air, water, people, temperature, materials and machines become part of one adaptive system.
By understanding how flows behave, we can make space respond. By making space respond, we can eventually build homes as solidified flows.
One intelligence layer. Every physical environment.
01
Sense
Sensors read energy, air, water, people, temperature and machines in real time.
02
Understand
Physical AI turns raw flows into an explainable, actionable model of the space.
03
Adapt
Space responds — comfort, cost and operations tuned continuously.
04
Build
From adaptive buildings to homes designed as solidified flows.

Flow Testing · Physical AI
Every flow test becomes infrastructure, intelligence, and intellectual property.
Planta tests real flows in real spaces.
People, energy, water, air, light, comfort, queues, and cost — each test becomes a smarter sensor rig, app, digital twin, and IP layer.
Flow testing is how Planta turns buildings into products.
Every space tested makes the next smart home smarter.
Planta studies how space behaves in reality: people, energy, air, water, comfort, queues, and cost.

The Planta Method
Devices control parts. Planta connects the whole physical system.
01
We map the physical environment: people, rooms, devices, light, air, temperature, energy, water, comfort, routines, and cost.
02
We connect sensors, gateways, environmental data, occupancy signals, cameras where appropriate, LoRaWAN, APIs, and device signals.
03
We integrate Home Assistant, Matter-ready devices, Apple Home, Google Home, APIs, building systems, and smart infrastructure.
04
We create digital twins, Flow Intelligence, dashboards, recommendations, automation logic, and real-time decision layers.
05
We give people a simple interface: app, WebApp, assistant, dashboards, alerts, and a natural way to talk to the building.
A smarter space is not more devices. It is a connected system — the intelligence layer between people, devices, buildings, and operations.
Sensory Layer · Physical AI
Sensors, cameras and devices become one adaptive intelligence. Sense · Understand · Respond.

Intelligence
Integration · Physical AI Layer
Planta brings existing sensors, devices, cameras, meters and building systems into one intelligence layer. It can begin with the infrastructure already present and grow through a modular sensing network designed for each space.
From a single room to a festival, factory or city, the same intelligence architecture can scale with the environment.
“We work with the ecosystem. We make it intelligent.”

One readable space
Everything connects into one readable space.
Lights, thermostats, locks, sensors, cameras, plugs, HVAC, meters, appliances, and machines.
Matter, LoRaWAN, MQTT, Modbus, BACnet, OPC UA, KNX, Zigbee, Thread, Wi-Fi, BLE, APIs, and webhooks.
Home Assistant, Apple Home, Google Home, building systems, dashboards, and custom web platforms.
Flow Intelligence, digital twin, comfort, energy, water, air, people flow, and cost intelligence.
Users talk to the space, see what is happening, receive recommendations, and act.

Ecosystem layer
Planta Smart Homes can connect with Home Assistant as an integration layer for devices, automations, sensors, scenes, and smart home ecosystems. Home Assistant is the ecosystem layer. Planta Smart Homes is the Physical AI layer.
Consumer ecosystems
Planta Smart Homes is designed to work across modern smart home ecosystems and protocol-ready environments — compatibility depends on device, protocol, and access.
+ Matter
Industrial · BMS
Planta Smart Homes can connect building systems, industrial signals, HVAC, meters, gateways, and operational dashboards through protocol-aware integration. Industrial and building integrations are evaluated case by case.
Protocol-aware, not protocol-limited
“Protocols move signals. Planta Smart Homes turns signals into Flow Intelligence.”
