✅ Future-proofBuilt to keep working — even if the maker walks away.
It works locally over Z-Wave, so it keeps running even if Thinka shuts down the app or the servers. Nothing here ties you to a single company's survival.
Works locally over Z-Wave — keeps running without the maker's cloud
Still in production

Z-WaveCertified
Thinka is the first officially Apple HomeKit certified Z-Wave™ Controller, adding over 3000 Z-Wave devices to the HomeKit ecosystem overnight. Thinka controls the state of your home and opens up HomeKit smart home functionality to your Z-Wave devices. Thinka allows you to take control of your home with the Home App of Apple. Powerful and simple. Thinka is officially certified by Apple. Thinka does not allow for work-arounds. Apple certification demands that the Thinka is equipped with an authentication chip (MFI). This chip makes communication between Thinka and your iPhone totally safe. Also when you leave the house, and control your home remotely or install geofencing, Thinka makes sure your home stays secure and private. Thinka features a strong Rasberry Pi CM4 module and totally works onsite. It does not need the cloud for computing power. In this way all user data stays in your home on your Thinka. We believe that no one should have access to the user data but the homeowner. Not us, and it should certainly not live in the cloud. Thinka brings all Z-Wave products and Apple HomeKit certified products together, and offers you full control of your smart home with ONE APP – one interface on all your iPhones, iPads and Smartwatches, from the couch or remote, via touch or voice or fully automated based on the scenes you define. Next to Apple HomeKit and Siri, Thinka works with Amazon Alexa, Google Home, IFTTT and Olisto.
