Lilio

Lilio is a smart home device designed to provide hands-free control of smart home systems through voice commands. Developed by the company Lilio Technologies, the device is primarily marketed as a solution for users with limited mobility or dexterity, enabling them to manage lights, thermostats, and other connected devices without physical interaction.

The core product, the Lilio Hub, resembles a small, cylindrical speaker and connects to a user’s Wi-Fi network. It integrates with popular smart home platforms such as Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple HomeKit, allowing it to respond to voice commands like "turn on the lights" or "adjust the thermostat." The device also features a built-in microphone and speaker, enabling two-way communication for additional convenience.

Lilio’s design emphasizes accessibility, with features like customizable voice profiles and the ability to assign specific commands to different rooms or devices. The system supports multiple users, allowing each person to have personalized voice controls. Additionally, Lilio offers a companion mobile app for remote management and setup, though the device itself is intended to function independently.

Beyond its primary use case, Lilio can also serve as a general smart home hub, simplifying control for users who prefer voice-activated automation. The company emphasizes security, ensuring that voice commands are encrypted and protected from unauthorized access.

Lilio Technologies was founded in 2016, with the goal of making smart home technology more inclusive. The company has expanded its product line to include accessories like wall-mounted controls and additional voice-enabled devices, further enhancing its ecosystem. While primarily focused on accessibility, Lilio’s solutions appeal to a broader audience seeking seamless smart home integration.
