Home Assistant Green
Home Assistant Green (Home Assistant) — a Matter controller, Zigbee (via add-on), Z-Wave (via add-on). It can directly pair 1,824 of the 9,530 devices in this database.
MSRP: $199
Home Assistant Green runs the full Home Assistant platform locally with no radios on board — Zigbee and Z-Wave arrive via USB dongles (the Connect ZBT-1, a Sonoff stick, or a Z-Wave stick), and Matter devices join over the network through the Matter server add-on. Once a dongle is attached, its Zigbee2MQTT/ZHA and Z-Wave JS integrations have the deepest device support of any platform in this database — the Zigbee and Z-Wave datasets here are literally its driver lists.
