Senic - Software Updates

Next steps for the Senic software

At Senic, we’re working to build products that enrich reality – creating experiences in the home where technology supports us seamlessly from the background. This vision cannot be built in a day and your voice is a vital part of the design process. In order to be transparent about our progress, we will regularly update this page to show you what we're working on.

Below is a list of developments on the front end (changes you will see) and back end (changes that are necessary for the software infrastructure). Our goal is to make the Hub stable, fix bugs and add new features. The priorities may move based on your feedback, so please keep in mind that this roadmap might change a bit along the way.
