• N/A

Last year, we laid out our vision for AI in the smart home, which opened up experimentation with AI in Home Assistant. In that update, we made it easier to integrate all sorts of local and cloud AI tools, and provided ways to use them to control and automate your home. A year has passed, a lot has happened in the AI space, and our community has made sure that Home Assistant has stayed at the frontier.

We beat big tech to the punch; we were the first to make AI useful in the home. We did it by giving our community complete control over how and when they use AI, making AI a powerful tool to use in the home. As opposed to something that takes over your home. Our community is taking advantage of AI’s unique abilities (for instance, its image recognition or summarizing skills), while having the ability to exclude it from mission-critical things they’d prefer it not to handle. Best of all, this can all be run locally, without any data leaving your home!

Moreover, if users don’t want AI in their homes, that’s their choice, and they can choose not to enable any of these features. I hope to see big tech take an approach this measured, but judging by their last couple of keynotes, I’m not holding my breath.

Over the past year, we’ve added many new AI features and made them easy to use directly through Home Assistant’s user interface. We have kept up with all the developments in AI land and are using the latest standard to integrate more models and tools than ever before. We’re also continuing to benchmark local and cloud models to give users an idea of what works best. Keep reading to check out everything new, and maybe you can teach your smart home some cool new tricks.

Local AI is making the home very natural to control

Big thanks to our AI community contributor team:
@AllenPorter, @shulyaka, @tronikos, @IvanLH, @Joostlek!

Supercharging voice control with AI

We were doing voice assistants before AI was cool. In 2023, we kicked off our Year of the Voice. Since then, we’ve worked towards our goal of building all the parts needed for a local, open, and private voice assistant. When AI became the rage, we were quick to integrate it.

Today, users can chat with any large language model (LLM) that is integrated into Home Assistant, whether that’s in the cloud or run locally via a service like Ollama. Where Assist, our home-grown (non-AI) voice assistant agent, is focused on a predetermined list of mostly home control commands, AI allows you to ask more open-ended questions. Summarize what’s happening across the smart home sensors you’ve exposed to Assist, or get answers to trivia questions. You can even give your LLM a personality!

Users can also leverage the power of AI to speak the way they speak, as LLMs are much better at understanding the intent behind the words. By default, Assist will handle commands first. Only questions or commands it can’t understand will be sent to the AI you’ve set up. For instance, “Turn on the kitchen light” can be handled by Assist, while “It’s dark in the kitchen, can you help?” could be processed by an AI. This speeds up response times for simple commands and makes for a more sustainable voice assistant.

Another powerful addition from the past year is context sharing between agents. So your Assist agent can share the most recent commands with your chosen AI agent. This shared context lets you say something like “Add milk to my shopping list,” which Assist will act on, and to add more items, just say “Add rice.” The AI agent understands that these commands are connected and can act accordingly.

Here is an excellent walkthrough video of JLo's AI-powered home, showing many of these new features in action

Another helpful addition keeps the conversation going; if the LLM asks you a question, your Assist hardware will listen for your reply. If you say something like “It’s dark”, it might ask whether you’d like to turn on some lights, and you could tell it to proceed. We have taken this even further than other voice assistants, as you can now have Home Assistant initiate conversations. For example, you could set up an automation that detects when the garage door is open and asks if you’d like to close it (though this can also be done without AI with a very clever Blueprint).

AI pushed us to completely revamp our Text-to-Speech (TTS) system to take advantage of streaming responses from LLMs. While local AI models can be slow, we use a simple trick to make the delay almost unnoticeable. Now, both Piper (our local TTS) and Home Assistant Cloud TTS can begin generating audio as soon as the LLM produces the first few words, improving the speed of the spoken response by a factor of ten.

Prompt: “Tell me a long story about a frog”

Great hardware to work with AI

People built some really cool voice hardware, from landline telephones to little talking robots, but the fact that it was so DIY was always a barrier to entry. To make our voice assistant available to everyone, we released the Home Assistant Voice Preview Edition. This is an easy and affordable way to try Home Assistant Voice. It has some seriously powerful audio processing hardware inside its sleek package. If you were on the fence about trying out voice, it really is the best way to get started.

Voice Preview Edition is not only open and powerful, but it looks and feels great too!

It’s now easier than ever to set up your Assist hardware to work with LLMs with our Voice Assistants settings page, and you can even assign a different LLM to each device. The LLM can recognize the room it’s in and the devices within it, making its responses more relevant. Assist was built to be a great way to control devices in your home, but with AI, it becomes so much more.

AI-powered suggestions

Last month, Home Assistant launched a new opt-in feature to leverage the power of AI when automating with Home Assistant. The goal is to shorten the journey from a blank slate to your finished idea.

When saving an automation or script, users can now leverage the new Suggest button: When clicked, it will send your automation configuration along with the titles of your existing automations and labels to AI to suggest a name, description, category, and labels for your new automation. Over the coming months, we’re going to explore what other features can benefit from AI suggestions.

To opt-in to this feature, you need to take two steps. First, you need to configure an integration that provides an AI Tasks entity. For local AI, you can configure Ollama, or you can also leverage cloud-based AI like Google, OpenAI, or Anthropic. Once configured, you need to go to the new AI Task preferences pane under System -> General and pick the AI Task entity to power suggestions in the UI. If you don’t configure an AI Tasks entity, the Suggest button will not be visible.

AI Tasks gets the job done

Enabling AI Tasks does more than quickly label and summarize your automations; its true superpower is making AI easy to use in templates, scripts, and automations. AI Tasks allow other code to leverage AI to generate data, including options to attach files and define how you want that data output (for instance, a JSON schema).

We have all seen those incredible community creations, where a user leverages AI image recognition and analysis to detect available parking spots or count the number of chickens in the chicken coop. It’s likely that AI Tasks can now help you easily do this in Home Assistant, without the need for complex scripts, extra add-ons, or HACS integrations.

Below is a template entity that counts chickens in a video feed, all via a short and simple set of instructions.

template:
 - triggers:
     - trigger: homeassistant
       event: start
     - trigger: time_pattern
       minutes: "/5"
   actions:
     - action: ai_task.generate_data
       data:
         task_name: Count chickens
         instructions: >-
           This is the inside of my coop. How many birds (chickens, geese, and
           ducks) are inside the coop?
         structure:
           birds:
             selector:
               number:
         attachments:
           media_content_id: media-source://camera/camera.chicken_coop
           media_content_type: image/jpeg
       response_variable: result
   sensor:
     - name: "Chickens"
       state: "{{ result.data.birds }}"
       state_class: total

This template sends a snapshot of the camera to the AI, asking it to analyze what is going on. It defines that the output should always be a number, since we want to use that information in Home Assistant. All of this is embedded in a template entity that automatically updates every 5 minutes. An AI Task could also be embedded in an automation, a script, or any other place that can execute actions.

An automation triggers an AI Task to identify what caused motion on a camera.

Lastly, users can set a default AI Task entity. This allows users to skip picking an entity ID when creating AI automations. It also lets you migrate everything that uses AI Tasks to the latest model with a single click. This also makes it easy to share blueprints that leverage AI Tasks, like this blueprint that analyzes a camera snapshot when motion is detected:

MCP opens a whole new world

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a thin layer allowing LLMs to integrate anything. When the specification was announced, we quickly jumped on it and integrated it into Home Assistant. Effectively, these servers give Home Assistant’s Assist conversation agent access to all sorts of new tools. You could connect MCP servers that give Assist access to the latest news stories, your to-do lists, or a server that catalogues your vinyl collection, allowing you to have richer conversations (“Okay Nabu, which Replacements albums do I have, and which aren’t on my Vinyl-to-Purchase list?”).

On the flip side, you can also turn Home Assistant into an MCP server, allowing an AI system to access information about your home. For instance, you could create a local AI that’s great at making Home Assistant automations, and it could include all your entity names or available actions. MCP keeps gaining more support, and there are some great cloud and self-hosted solutions available.

How to pick a model

There are a lot of models available, it’s hard to know where to start. Luckily, Home Assistant’s resident AI guru @AllenPorter is here to help. He has put together an incredibly useful Home LLM Leaderboard. This dataset includes his extensive tests of cloud and local LLM options, and even has tests that give small local LLMs a fighting chance (see assist-mini).

Currently, the charts show the big cloud players’ most recent models ranking pretty close to each other, while recent local models that use 8GB or more of VRAM are nearly keeping up. In the past, there was a big disparity between most models, but now it’s hard to go wrong.

This is especially helpful as the options for LLMs in Home Assistant have just grown exponentially with the addition of OpenRouter, a unified interface for LLMs. With OpenRouter, users can access over 400 new models in Home Assistant, and it supports AI Tasks right from day one. We really are spoiled for choice.

The future is Open, and Open Source

Home Assistant is open. We believe that you should be in control of your data, and your smart home. All of it. Local LLMs and the way we have architected Home Assistant extends this choice to the AI space, all while maintaining your privacy.

Most crucially, we’ve made all of this open source. We are community-driven and work on this together with our community. The Open Home Foundation has no investors and is not beholden to anyone but our users. Our work is funded through hardware purchases and Home Assistant Cloud subscriptions, allowing us to make all the technology we build free and open.

Some of the primary changes include: an improved networking layer, a redesigned search with voice input, the introduction of a new navigation experience across the app, support for seeking music and better queue management, a new 'Are you still watching?' prompt, and many performance and stability improvements under the hood.
Additionally, the photo viewer has been redesigned to align with the new video player’s design, which will be introduced in a future update.

This version is compatible with Jellyfin server 10.10.0 and 10.11.0.

Home Assistant 2025.9! 🎉

But before we dive into this release: Did you see we launched a new product? 👀

We’ve introduced the Home Assistant Connect ZWA-2, the ultimate way to connect Z-Wave devices to Home Assistant. You can read all about it in our announcement blog 📰 or re-watch the product launch live stream on YouTube 📺.

It was a busy month, as we also had two new Works with Home Assistant program partners joining this month as well: AirGradient and Frient! 🎉

While the above was happening this month, as if the project wasn’t already busy enough, we kept on pushing to prepare for this release; and it is an absolute massive one! 🤯

This month introduces a new experimental Home dashboard, which aims to become the new default dashboard for Home Assistant in a future release. A first iteration, of which we love to see your feedback and input on. As you know, we develop and iterate in the open. Give it a shot and let us know what you think!

Talking about dashboards, my personal favorite card is definitely the tile card; it is just so versatile. And this release brings in a staggering amount of new features for it! Most notably, the ability to add a trend graph to the tile card! 📈

I’m the most excited about the visual changes to the automation editor this release brings: a sidebar. It is a huge and very visible change, that just makes so much sense. This release denotes the start of a whole series of improvements to the automation editor in this, and upcoming releases. As automations make a smart home feel magical, I personally can’t wait to see how this evolves. 🤖

Enjoy the release!

Automation editor sidebar

On this year’s Home Assistant roadmap, we have set the goal of making automations easier to create. We have big plans, all based on tons of research, and with this release… we are shipping the first part of all this work, with the intent to gradually add more improvements over multiple releases!

This release tweaks the automation editor user interface experience by introducing a sidebar! If you select an item in your automation, instead of that item expanding, it will open a new sidebar to the right with the settings for that selected item.

This allows you to keep an overview of your automation on the left side of your screen, while you can tweak its behavior on the right. Of course, we have thought of smaller screens as well. On mobile, instead of the sidebar, a sheet will pop up at the bottom of the screen. This pop-up is also resizable, making it easier than ever to edit an action while reviewing your triggers.

Besides the sidebar, we have made tons of other little improvements as well. Tiny layout and styling changes that you will definitely notice as they really help with the overall readability. For example, small lines and borders around grouped elements have been added, making it easier to distinguish between different parts of your automation. Oh! And drag-and-drop support is now available on mobile! 🎉

Introducing the Home dashboard

Over the past year, we have focused on dashboards and their capabilities a lot. We’ve looked at a lot of your dashboards you’ve shared on socials, and talked to many of you about how you organize all your smart home devices and services. The goal? Making dashboards faster and easier to create, while still making them very customizable.

With this release, we’re introducing a brand-new Home dashboard. The purpose is simple: to give you easy access to the right information at the right time.

The dashboard adapts to your Home Assistant experience level: powerful enough for advanced users, yet approachable for newcomers. We’re working to have it earn its name, and hope it will eventually become your new Home page. As always, it’s optional; you can always pick your own dashboard. This is the first iteration, and we’ll continue developing it in the open.

When you first open the Home dashboard, it gives you a quick way to navigate to useful summaries for your light, climate, security, and media devices. You can also browse by areas, getting an overview of all the devices and services associated with that part of your home.

We’re also introducing Favorites. You can pin any entity to the top, whether it’s a light, climate, or a person. We’d love to see what you choose (more on this in the future).

The Home dashboard is not just about quick control. It also brings insights and information about your home. This first release includes weather and energy cards. It’s a simple start, and we have a lot of ideas to explore with you. For example, helping you create your first automation, or show discovered devices.

For now, the Home dashboard is considered experimental. Configuration options are limited, and it’s guaranteed to evolve. It won’t appear automatically, and if you want to try it you’ll need to add it manually in the dashboard settings, by adding a new “Home” dashboard.

New tile card features

The tile card is the most versatile card we have in our arsenal of cards for our dashboards.

One superpower of the tile card is its “features”, which are small additions where you can add quick interactions to these cards. For example, a slider to control the brightness of a light or buttons for the speed presets of a fan. Features have been extended quite a bit in this release by a dedicated group of community members.

Trend chart

This release, an absolute banger is the addition of the trend chart features for tile cards created by @MindFreeze.

This feature adds a handy quick graph to the tile card, showing the history of a specific entity over time. For this initial version, the time window shown is 24 hours.

Media player controls

@timmo001, added tile card features for media player controls and volume! This makes the tile card now a viable alternative to the media player card. Awesome!

Bar gauge

A new tile card feature, made by @MindFreeze: The bar gauge!

For this initial version, it works with sensors that use a percentage (%) for their unit of measurement. This makes the card great, for example, for a battery overview dashboard. Nice work!

Fan direction and oscillation controls

Thanks to @pcan08 we now have a tile card feature to control fan direction and oscillation!

Buttons

Thanks to @dhoeben we now have a tile card feature for buttons! He added these buttons for automation, script, and button entities. The text can be changed to display standard button text or custom text.

Valve open/close and position controls

Thanks to @timmo001 we now have a tile card feature to control the open/close and the position of valves.

Setting the date

@timmo001 continued and also added a new tile card feature to support date and datetime entities (including the input datetime helpers). It allows you to add a feature that allows for setting a date.

Integration quality scale achievements

One thing we are incredibly proud of in Home Assistant is our integration quality scale. This scale helps us and our contributors to ensure integrations are of high quality, maintainable, and provide the best possible user experience.

This release, we celebrate several integrationsIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more. [Learn more] that have improved their quality scale:

• 2 integrations reached platinum 🏆

  • Network UPS Tools (NUT), thanks to @tdfountain
  • Uptime Kuma, thanks to @tr4nt0r

• 1 integration reached bronze 🥉

  • Mastodon, thanks to @andrew-codechimp

This is a huge achievement for these integrations and their maintainers. The effort and dedication required to reach these quality levels is significant, as it involves extensive testing, documentation, error handling, and often complete rewrites of parts of the integration.

A big thank you to all the contributors involved! 👏

Now available to set up from the UI

While most integrationsIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more. [Learn more] can be set up directly from the Home Assistant user interface, some were only available using YAML configuration. We keep moving more integrations to the UI, making them more accessible for everyone to set up and use.

The following integration is now available via the Home Assistant UI:

• Bayesian, done by @HarvsG

Farewell to the following

The following integrationIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more. [Learn more] is no longer available as of this release:

• Uonet+ Vulcan has been removed. Vulcan has changed their API and their policies forbid using the API from unofficial software.

Other noteworthy changes

There are many more improvements in this release; here are some of the other noteworthy changes:

• Based on feature requests from the community, all modern template entity syntax now supports setting a default entity ID directly in YAML. Thanks @Petro31 for implementing that!
• @Petro31 also added support for two new entity types to the template integration. You can now create your own templated event entities and update entities. Awesome!
• Home Assistant now supports m³/min as a volume flow rate unit. Nice addition @fetzerch!
• Our voice guy @synesthesiam has been busy with some great QoL improvements this release as well.
  • The intent handling for the default agent (non-LLM) now supports fuzzy matching. The technique ensures voice pipelines recognize many more sentences. This improvement is available for English only, while we are looking for ways to extend this to other languages.
  • We now have built-in intents to control the volume of (active) media players! Like the song? Just ask Home Assistant to turn it up a notch!
  • After all that dancing, you might have gotten a little warm. Hence in this release, we now also have intents to control fan speeds. Nice!

Analog clock

In Home Assistant 2025.4, we introduced the clock card, which provides a digital clock display for your dashboards.

For this release, @timmo001 made this card more feature-rich by adding support for displaying the clock in a customizable analog clock style. Nice!

Storage insights

Disk almost full? You might wonder where your storage space has gone…

This release adds disk metrics to the storage configuration panel, letting you see usage at a glance, helping you identify what is taking up space.

You can find these metrics by navigating to Settings > System > Storage, or by selecting the My Home Assistant button down below.
