Here is what your agent can do with your Alexa data.

LIVE DATA

Real-time readings

Your agent pulls current temperature and humidity data from your sensors. You get immediate updates on your home's environment.

STATUS

Thermostat monitoring

Check if your heating or cooling is running. Your agent reports the current state of your connected thermostats.

INVENTORY
