Home Assistant Add-on

HAPiyoAI

PiyoAI in your Home Assistant sidebar. Camera dashboard, detection log, and HA entities — natively integrated.

Connects to a running PiyoAI instance on your network, subscribes to its MQTT broker for camera images and detections, and exposes per-camera binary sensors in Home Assistant.

Included free with PiyoAI
HAPiyoAI Camera Dashboard

AI Detection Meets Home Automation

Everything you need to bring PiyoAI camera detections into your Home Assistant setup.

Camera Dashboard

Live grid of all cameras with latest images, detected/idle badges, and object class chips. Right in the HA sidebar.

Detection Log

Chronological event history with camera filter and pagination. See exactly what was detected and when.

HA Binary Sensors

Per-camera binary_sensor entities with detected objects, last image, and timestamp attributes.

Easy Discovery

One-click camera discovery from PiyoAI. Select which cameras to install, configure per-camera idle timeouts.

MQTT Bridge

Subscribes directly to PiyoAI's MQTT broker. No dependency on HA's Mosquitto add-on — works standalone.

Camera Control

Enable or disable detection per camera directly from the dashboard. Status stays in sync with PiyoAI in real time.

3. Home Assistant
