Setting up a smart home usually means signing away your privacy to the cloud and paying endless monthly subscription fees just to access your own security footage. It is a frustrating reality for anyone trying to modernise their living space. But global tech brand UGREEN is officially stepping into the AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) space with a solution that might just solve these exact problems. Their new local-first smart home ecosystem is built around the idea that your home’s intelligence should actually live inside your home.
Meet the UGREEN HomeAgent Ecosystem
The UGREEN HomeAgent ecosystem is designed to bring the brain of your smart home back where it belongs. Instead of sending all your family’s data, photos, and video feeds to a remote server, the HomeAgent HA100 and HA100 Pro operate on a highly secure “local-first” architecture. This means your processing, storage, and device controls happen right there in your living room, keeping your personal life entirely private.
The absolute best part? There are zero monthly storage fees. You own your device, and you own your data. Core security and smart home functions operate securely on your local network, which is a refreshing change of pace in an industry obsessed with cloud subscriptions.
An AI Assistant That Actually Works for You
We have all had security cameras that only record the bad stuff, like a package thief in the night. UGREEN wants to change that narrative. The HomeAgent uses local AI to proactively capture meaningful everyday moments instead of just monitoring for risks. It can recognise people, pets, and vehicles, but it goes a step further by automatically creating highlight videos of your family to display on UGREEN’s new gallery smart frames.
You can also talk directly to your home using “Uliya,” the system’s built-in voice assistant, to control devices, check live statuses, or set up custom alerts, like a notification when a baby is crying. Thanks to built-in Matter support, it easily connects with compatible third-party gadgets to unify your entire house with a single voice command.
Powering Up with the MasterAgent MA100
If you want some serious processing power, UGREEN is also launching the MasterAgent MA100 alongside the standard hubs. Powered by the impressive NVIDIA Jetson Thor T5000, this local hub is built for an increasingly connected future. It delivers massive computing power to run larger AI models, understand complex voice commands with deeper context, and smoothly coordinate multiple tasks across your home at lightning speed. Developers will even be able to create custom skills to expand its capabilities further.
How to Get Your Hands on It
UGREEN has opened pre-orders for the HomeAgent HA100, HA100 Pro, and MasterAgent MA100 through their official AIoT store. This early access period runs until their official Kickstarter campaign kicks off on October 27, 2026. If you are ready to upgrade your home setup, placing a $50 deposit during this pre-order window secures a Super Early Bird price at a massive 50 percent off.
The next chapter of the smart home is not just about plugging in more devices; it is about building a system that actually understands what you need while keeping you in total control.
