AURA ECOSYSTEMLOCAL CORE / OPTIONAL LINK

Understand the air from every room to the world outside.

Aura is a local-first air-quality ecosystem. Aura AQ measures each room, Hub brings rooms together on one local screen, and optional Link adds remote access, longer history and outdoor context.

Measure

Track particles, gases and room climate where they change.

Connect

See every room together on one local Hub.

Understand

Compare indoor readings with outdoor air and forecasts.

Act

Know when to ventilate, wait or investigate.

01 - Aura product family

Start with one room. Expand when you need to.

Aura AQ works today. Hub is in development, a Link demo is available, and future Satellites will extend coverage indoors and outside. Each layer adds capability without making Aura AQ depend on an account or hosted service.

In development

Aura AQ Hub

A working local prototype that brings connected Aura devices into one multi-room view. Pairing, history, updates and deeper integrations are still in development.

Concept stage

Aura Satellites

Future compact indoor, outdoor and control nodes for spaces where a screen is not needed, extending sensing and supported equipment control across the Aura ecosystem.

02 - Why Aura exists

Most rooms give you no feedback about the air you breathe.

CO₂ rises in a closed bedroom. Particles spike in a workshop. Outdoor smoke can make opening a window the wrong move. Aura shows what is happening in each room and adds the context you need to respond.

03 - The Aura loop

From a rising reading to the right response.

CO₂ is climbing in the meeting room, but outdoor PM2.5 is worse. Aura AQ measures the room, Hub confirms the change is local, and Link adds the outside context you need before opening a window.

    A clearer next step

    Keep monitoring, then ventilate when outdoor air improves.

04 - Local by default

Local by default. Connected by choice.

Readings and control stay on your network. Link adds hosted capabilities only when you choose it.

Local coreNo Link required

Works without Link

Readings, alerts, setup and integrations stay on your network. No Aura account or subscription required.

  • Live readings, touchscreen UI and local alerts
  • Setup, local dashboard and short history
  • Hub pairing and a local multi-room view when Hub is added
  • Planned outdoor Satellite adds on-site outdoor readings without Link
  • MQTT and Home Assistant integration for Aura AQ

05 - One ecosystem, many spaces

From one room to multiple sites.

Monitor the spaces where air changes, then add Hub for more rooms or Link for remote sites.

Bedroom

See overnight CO₂, humidity and temperature patterns, all visible locally by default.

Shared spaces

With Hub, compare classrooms, labs or offices from one local screen.

Multiple sites

Add Link for remote status, long-term history, reports and alert delivery across locations.

06 - Built together

Come build Aura with me.

I'd be glad to see you in the Aura Discord. It's where we discuss every Aura project, share builds, troubleshoot hardware and firmware, and shape what comes next. Thank you for every idea, test and helping hand.
