BAIT

Our own smart home app. It talks to the local server in the house — rooms, climate, lighting, covers, automation rules and the household to-do list — in Arabic and English, light and dark. It is in daily use, and every screen on this page is a real screenshot.

بيت — the Arabic word for “home”.

What it does

Control, not configuration.

The hard part of a smart home app is not adding features. It is deciding what a person actually touches at 11pm on a Tuesday, and putting that one thing within reach.

Rooms and devices

Lights, covers, climate and sensors grouped by room, with the device count on each tab. Opening a cover to 59% takes one tap and one drag.

Climate with the real controls

Not a simplified thermostat. Mode, fan speed and every swing position the unit actually supports — because a simplified control that cannot do the thing you need is not simpler.

Automation you can write yourself

State, numeric, NFC tag and timer triggers, with a notification and an optional spoken announcement. No scripting, and no support ticket to change when the porch light comes on.

Every rule in one list

Search, favourites, on/off filters and when each rule last ran. When something in the house behaves oddly, this is the screen that tells you why.

The household, not just the hardware

Shared to-do lists live in the same app, because the people who run a house are already in it every day. Small feature, disproportionate use.

Accounts and household members

Roles, member access and password changes that sign every session out afterwards. A house has more than one person in it, and they should not all share one login.

Arabic and English. Light and dark.

The same screen, four ways.

Right-to-left is not a translation layer bolted on at the end — the whole layout mirrors. This is the profile screen in all four states, untouched.

Why we built it

We could have licensed somebody else's dashboard. Then every house we deliver would depend on a company we do not control, a cloud we cannot inspect, and a roadmap we cannot influence — and the day they change their pricing, our clients would have a problem we could not fix. BAIT talks to a server inside your house. If we disappeared tomorrow, it would keep working.

It is also the most honest answer we have to “can you actually build software?”. You are looking at it.

Send the constraint you are actually stuck on — a floor plan, a network that keeps dropping, a process nobody wants to do by hand. An engineer reads it and replies.
