About Jack

I'm Jack. I built crosspec as a working tool after years of running Home Assistant at home: a mixed-vendor setup spanning Matter, Thread, and Zigbee devices from Philips Hue, Aqara, SwitchBot, TP-Link Tapo, and Eve. The compatibility math for smart home is painful to do in your head and worse to do on Reddit. Crosspec is the tool I wanted.

Every recommendation on this site is grounded in public registries (Home Assistant integrations, Zigbee2MQTT device database, the CSA Matter product database) with the source cited on the result. I don't take payment to rank products higher; affiliate links are disclosed and don't change the solver's output.
