COMPANY · WHAT WE DO

One system, from sensor to action.

We build every layer of a smart product ourselves: the sensors, the AI that runs on them, and the app people use. Our devices read what is happening around them, decide on the device itself, and act straight away, with no button to press and no wait for the cloud.

01
Sense

Sensors read sound, motion, temperature and air quality, every second.

02
Decide

On-device AI turns raw signals into a decision in milliseconds.

03
Control

Alerts, history and settings in one app on your phone.

WHAT WE DO

Eight disciplines.
One engineering culture.

HOW WE BUILD

From idea to product.

01 / DISCOVER

We find the
real problem.

We talk to the people who will use it and test the hard technical questions first, before a single schematic is drawn.

RESEARCH VALIDATE ARCHITECTURE
02 / BUILD

We engineer
everything.

Circuit boards, firmware, AI models and the app are designed and tested together, by one team, under one roof.

HARDWARE FIRMWARE + AI SOFTWARE
03 / SHIP

We deliver
real products.

From working prototype to a certified, manufactured product that families can buy and rely on.

ORIGIN

It started with a YouTube channel.

Before AskSummu, we were [ask] Aditya — building home automation, smart cars and touch switches in the open, one DIY video at a time. The skills, the audience and the curiosity from those builds became this company.
