FrostHome Automation Coordinator

A lightweight AI agent that orchestrates your smart home — managing device routines, scheduling scenes, monitoring energy usage, and learning your household patterns. Always running, never in the way.

The Problem

Smart homes aren't smart. They're programmed.

You bought smart lights, smart plugs, a smart thermostat, and a hub to connect them all. You spent a weekend setting up automations. And now you have a house that turns on the porch light at 6:47 PM every day — even in July when it's still bright outside.

The issue with most home automation is that it's static. You program rules once and they execute forever, regardless of whether they still make sense. Seasons change, schedules shift, guests visit, routines evolve — but the automation stays frozen. When something doesn't work right, you open an app, scroll through nested menus, and try to remember which rule controls what.

Meanwhile, your devices exist in silos. The lighting app doesn't talk to the thermostat. The security cameras don't coordinate with the door locks. You end up being the integration layer — the human middleware manually bridging systems that should work together.

Frost sits on top of your existing smart home devices and acts as an intelligent coordinator. It learns your actual patterns — when you wake up, when you leave, when you're working from home — and adjusts routines dynamically. It bridges devices across platforms and handles the orchestration so you don't have to think about it.

How It Works

Automation that adapts.

Frost runs on a Haiku-class model for fast, lightweight orchestration — the kind that can respond in milliseconds without consuming serious compute. Here's the flow:

1
Device Discovery and Mapping

Oscar connects to your smart home platforms — Hue, HomeKit, Matter, custom APIs — and builds a unified device map. Lights, switches, sensors, thermostats, speakers — all visible in one place. No more switching between five different apps.

2
Pattern Learning

Instead of programming fixed schedules, Oscar observes your actual behavior. Lights turn on at 6:15 on weekdays but 8:30 on weekends? It notices. You always dim the living room after 9 PM? It learns. Over time, it builds a model of your household rhythms that adjusts seasonally and with schedule changes.

3
Scene Orchestration

Tell Oscar "movie night" and it dims the lights, closes the blinds, sets the thermostat to 72, and turns on the sound system — coordinating devices across platforms in a single command. Scenes are natural language, not menu configurations.

4
Energy Monitoring

Oscar tracks energy usage patterns across your connected devices and flags anomalies — a device left on that's normally off, usage spikes during off-peak hours, or appliances drawing more power than expected. Simple alerts, no dashboards required.

The OS Underneath

More than a model. An operating system.

Frost runs on Montebelle's agent operating system — the same infrastructure that powers enterprise agents, scaled down for always-on home automation.

Household Memory

Oscar maintains a persistent model of your household — device states, usage patterns, seasonal preferences, and routine variations. This memory means the agent doesn't need re-training after a power outage or system update. It picks up where it left off, with full context.

Safety Verification

Before executing any device command, the OS runs safety checks. Conflicting instructions get flagged — not executed. A request to turn off all lights won't kill the security lights. A thermostat change that exceeds safe ranges gets blocked. The agent double-checks before it acts.

Fleet Learning

When the Montebelle fleet discovers better automation patterns — energy-saving routines, more reliable device coordination approaches, failure recovery strategies — those improvements distribute to every Oscar agent. Your home automation benefits from collective intelligence while your specific household data stays private.
