I'm the director of engineering at HomeSeer. We work to build automation systems through an easy to use platform for every home owner, providing experiences that are secure, reliable, and extensible. We offer an open-source plugin SDK you can use to extend the HomeSeer platform to do whatever you can dream of. Check us out and join the community!
