Local Control

The only thing I don't see anywhere is the #1 thing that I think would make you the go-to recommendation for anyone wanting smart control, but privacy focus. Matter/thread support. If you had the ability to utilize your feature set with fully local control (no cloud dependency), it would be a no-brainer for me. I'm in the process of trying to take back as much of my data as I can from Google, but smart control functionality is important to me. So having the ability to connect over open industry standards for connection to Home Assistant, and being able to use the full feature set without cloud dependency would be an instant sell for me, and I'm sure a lot of privacy focused users. It would also make setup of the products incredibly straightforward when it comes to the connection process in general

  100% Agree! I love these units and there is a real gap in the smart home space for quality smoke detectors. API integration or Matter support would put these units at the top of the recommendation list.
