Thank you for visiting HASMaster.com, the Home Automation Services (HAS) Master site.
I’ve been building real smart homes since 2007—through fragmented platforms, abandoned products, cloud lock-ins, and a lot of wasted time.
HASMaster exists to help people benefit from and enjoy their home automation journey without repeating my mistakes.
Vision: My Life Automated
My Life Automated is a long-term HASMaster initiative to share 1,000 real-world home automation use cases that guide anyone through the why, what, and how of automation.
These Use Cases
Solve a Specific, Relatable Problem
Every use case aligns to the S.C.O.R.E model:
- Safety – Reduce risk or prevent harm
- Convenience – Save time or effort
- Organization – Reduce chaos or mental load
- Resilience – Handle failure and outages
- Entertainment – Comfort, delight, or enjoyment
Work in a Real Home
These are real-world implementations. Most I’ve built myself; others are supported by clear evidence from real deployments.
Are Easy to Implement
This site aims to simplify and help with that:
- Enable practical automation
Help anyone design and implement automations that actually work. - Reduce complexity
Use AI to clarify how devices, platforms, and automations fit together. - Put users in control
Let you decide how you engage—guides, patterns, agents, or inspiration.
Our Principles
Privacy First
Local control matters. Automations should not depend on the cloud to function.
Choice and Interoperability
No vendor should own your home. Devices must work together.
Benefits Over Cost
If the time, effort, or money outweighs the payoff, it’s not worth doing.
Enjoy the ride!
