Frequently Asked Questions
intelliPLUG is an App enabled Wi-Fi smartplug that requires NO HUB. Unlike other systems that require a central hub or are much more expensive, our goal is produce an affordable smart plug that has all the premium features you’d want.
We are smart home nerds that love the idea of automating our homes. When we looked at the current systems on the market, they either lacked the features we wanted or were too costly to outfit our whole house. The intelliPLUG solve both of the problems.

intelliPLUG can simplify by giving you the ability to control plugs on any preset schedule or on demand anytime, from anywhere. You can use intelliPLUG to start your coffee maker when you decide to wake up, limit TV time for your kiddos, control a radio for your lonely pet, or even give the impression your home is occupied when you’re home.
Yes, the intelliPLUG has already been UL certified and is FCC, RoHS, and CE compliant.
