Welcome to Hungry Machines Docs
One optimizer, four ways to connect it. Add it to Home Assistant, run it on a Home Hub, hand it a Smart Satellite, or build directly on the API.
Outsmart your electric bill - Hungry Machines Energy provides an energy management system that shifts HVAC, EV charging, home batteries, and other electric loads to cheaper hours for homes and buildings with solar power or variable electricity rates. Every route runs the same optimizer; the difference is what carries out the plan.
