Penduline

Prediction and logistics software built on the Umwelt engine, from Cerebral Frame. It runs on your own machine, against your own Home Assistant.

What it is

Penduline keeps a belief about each room in your house and tells you what it believes, and why, in plain sentences:

Landing presence: last seen 40 minutes ago; I still believe someone is up there, and here is why.

The thinking is done by Umwelt, the engine. Penduline is the membrane between Home Assistant and that engine.

• Local-first. Your token, states and history stay in your house. Nothing hosted is required.
• Suggestion-only. It starts in Watch: it reads and writes nothing. It never switches anything until you say so, and locks are sense-only.
• You author the meaning. Which room a sensor is in, and what silence means, is your call. Penduline drafts; you decide.

Beta

Penduline is in beta. It will get things wrong, and we want to know where. How long it takes before it says something useful: DARK (not measured yet).

Volunteer

You run Home Assistant and can run a Python program or Docker on a machine in your house. To take part, say so on GitHub: open an issue or join a discussion on the issue tracker. This site has no form and collects nothing.

Beta volunteers are being recruited on Reddit first; signup stays on the issue tracker. Community: DARK until chosen.

Nothing is required of you. A screenshot of a confession, right or wrong, helps. Blur names of people and your Home Assistant URL first. We will never ask for your token, your history or your address.

Beta kit landing page: DARK until the address is live.
