Why Home Assistant
Home Assistant is the open-source hub that works with thousands of device brands and runs in your own home. By connecting to it, Jarvis reaches whatever you have already set up, without asking you to move to a new ecosystem. If you do not use Home Assistant yet, you will need it for the smart home features.
More than a voice remote
Home Assistant has its own voice assistant, and it is a good one for speakers around the house. Jarvis adds what a speaker cannot: a screen, your computer, and your workshop. The same sentence can dim the lights, start a print and put the camera on screen.
How that compares with a smart speaker is in Jarvis vs Alexa.
