Know what your home is doing, and what it is costing you
Larunda learns how your house actually behaves — how it warms up,
where the electricity goes, what the heating is really doing — and says so
in plain sentences. It runs on a panel on your wall, not in somebody
else’s data centre.
Your house keeps working whether or not this website does.

Why it exists
It started with a bill
About fifty pounds a month more than before, and no straightforward way to find
out why. Not which room. Not which habit. Not whether the heating had quietly
started running an hour longer each morning.
The tools that existed either wanted the whole house uploaded somewhere, or
showed a graph and left you to guess. Larunda is the answer to one question:
what is this house actually doing, and what is it costing me?
What it looks at
The things a house does that nobody sees
Examples, not promises. Every house is different, and
what it finds in yours depends on your house.
Heating running longer than it needs to
Warm-up starting earlier than your house requires
Rooms that take far longer to heat than others
Heating on while the house is empty
What your electricity is doing overnight
What it all costs against your actual tariff
It keeps working when the internet doesn’t
The part that decides whether the heating comes on opens no connection to
anything — not as a setting, it has no networking in it at all. If we
disappeared tomorrow, your house would carry on exactly as it does today.
Every suggestion comes with its reasons
Start heating at 06:07 to reach 20.5°C by 07:00. Leave it
explaining — telling you what it would have done, and doing
nothing — for as long as you like. Watch it before you trust it.
Nothing happens without your permission
Acting on its own is granted one thing at a time, within limits you set.
Touch a control yourself and it stands down for two hours without being
asked.

If the panel fails
Your home is not gone
Every night the panel seals a copy of your home — rooms, schedules, paired
devices, everything it has learned — and sends it to us. Sealed with a key
that never leaves your house, which means we hold it and cannot read it. A
replacement panel brings all of it back; the restore is free, the new panel is
bought in the usual way.
It also means a backup can only be opened with your recovery key.
Lose it and we cannot help you — and neither can anybody who steals a copy
of our database. That is the trade, and it is deliberate.
