HarborNavi: Keeping the moments that define your home, private and forever.

What makes a house a home? It’s the laughter echoing in the living room, your child’s proud little wins, and even the chaotic, fleeting everyday moments. These aren’t just events—they are the memories that define who you are.

HarborNavi gathers these precious pieces of your life into one secure, private home memory. So when you walk through the door, you’re not just arriving; you’re connecting. Ask Navi about the moments you missed, and keep the heart of your home alive.

The life already happening at home

The best parts should not disappear into 24 hours of footage.

The moments you choose to keep stay in one private timeline, together with when and where they happened. Ask for one later instead of scrubbing through recordings or searching across apps.

A memory you can ask

Come home to the short version.

Navi keeps up with the day without turning every event into a notification. Routine moments can wait. Configured urgent changes can reach you. When you walk in, Navi can give you the calm version and answer what happened next.

Storage + Home Agent + Home devices

01Storage

Remember

HarborNavi-managed family photos, selected clips, event records, device changes, and the growing home timeline stay on local storage.

Private retention that can grow with optional SSDs.

02Home Agent

Understand

Navi connects what happened across time, prepares a briefing, answers follow-up questions, and asks when a detail is missing.

The day stays connected instead of becoming separate alerts.

03Home devices

Respond

Everyday words can become temporary plans across supported devices, while household permissions keep sensitive changes in the right hands.

Each result becomes part of what the home knows next.

The response becomes part of the next memory, so the home does not start from zero each time.

When something needs you now

The package is leaving. Navi speaks up.

A delivery at 2:14 PM is routine. Someone carrying it away at 2:31 is not. HarborNavi can connect the door camera and presence signals, notify you, save the key clip, and prepare an allowed response through a supported speaker, siren, or doorbell. Any further escalation still belongs to you.

Package removed after delivery. Owner notified. Supported porch warning ready.

Memory makes language useful

"Movie night" should be enough.

HarborNavi can use room and device mappings already established in the home, ask about anything unclear, and turn the answer into a temporary plan instead of another permanent rule to maintain.

Works with your home

Keep the home you already have.

Keep the cameras, sensors, lights, appliances, and Home Assistant setup that already make sense. Supported paths can contribute to the same home memory without asking the household to switch into one brand.

Home Assistant

Use supported entities, scenes, and automations already in the home.

RTSP / ONVIF

Bring selected local camera streams and events into the home timeline.

Selected integrations

Add device state and actions where the path is supported and useful.

Planned Zigbee

Designed for common sensors, switches, and small devices after validation.

Planned IR

Designed for televisions and climate devices that still work best by remote.

Compatibility varies by device and setup. A clear supported-device list will be available before orders open.

Dedicated local hardware

Memory needs a home of its own.

A dedicated box gives family memory, local intelligence, device links, and trust boundaries a stable place to live. Optional cloud models can help without becoming the owner of the home's full history.

Private home memory

128GB eMMC is the planned base. Two M.2 slots can extend HarborNavi-managed photos, clips, events, and home history.

Local intelligence

A dedicated K3-class compute direction gives memory and home workflows a stable place to run.

Device links

Dual 2.5GbE, HDMI, Home Assistant paths, selected cameras, planned Zigbee, and planned IR.

Physical trust

Planned fingerprint confirmation and an embedded secure element support sensitive setup boundaries.

Planned launch hardware

Compute: SpacemiT K3 target platform; up to 60 TOPS-class AI compute design
Memory: 16GB LPDDR5X planned base configuration; higher-memory option under consideration
Storage: 128GB eMMC planned base; two M.2 slots for optional SSDs that extend HarborNavi-managed retention
Network and display: Dual 2.5GbE and HDMI output
Device links: Home Assistant, selected camera paths, planned Zigbee, and planned IR
Trust hardware: Planned fingerprint confirmation and embedded secure element

Different products keep different pieces

Who keeps the situation together?

Camera AI, cloud assistants, local hubs, and installed systems each solve a different part of the home. The practical difference is who keeps the full picture together, and what happens when the routine changes.

Questions before launch

What this home memory is being built to do.

Is HarborNavi a NAS?

HarborNavi uses NAS-like local storage for the memories it manages: selected family photos, clips, event records, and home history. The first product is centered on that private home memory, rather than replacing every general-purpose file server, backup, or media-server workflow.

Is it another camera recorder?

Cameras are one memory source. HarborNavi is designed to connect selected camera moments with sensors, device state, recent history, and household permissions, then make that history useful in conversation and action.

Does it replace Home Assistant?

Home Assistant remains a strong device and automation layer. HarborNavi adds memory, follow-up conversation, and a simpler path from everyday language to a coordinated temporary plan.

Will it work with every device?

No. HarborNavi starts with supported Home Assistant paths, selected RTSP / ONVIF cameras, selected integrations, planned Zigbee, and planned IR. A clear device list will be published before orders open.

When is fingerprint confirmation used?

It is planned for sensitive setup changes such as adding a member, expanding permissions, or pairing a device. Ordinary questions and routines should stay easy.

Does it require cloud AI?

Core home memory, permissions, and device workflows are designed to stay local. External models remain optional and follow a filtered outbound path when enabled.
