Why ours

Built around the three things
people complain about

We read 4,000+ reviews of existing motorized curtains. 36% of complaints were about installation, 18% about batteries. So we designed those out first.

01 · Power
0×
recharges per year

Plug-in. Never recharge.

Battery curtains die at the worst time. Ours runs on a low-voltage plug with a 3 m cable — set it once and forget it. Battery module still available for windows without an outlet.

02 · Protocol
1 tap
to pair

Native Matter, no hub.

Matter over Thread straight out of the box. Pair with Apple Home, Alexa or Google in one tap — no bridge, no cloud account, no app-switching.

03 · Failure mode
100%
manual override

Pull to override, always.

A mechanical clutch means you can always tug the curtain by hand — power cut, motor fault, or just impatient. Competitors lock up when the battery dies.

04 · Install
20 min
average install

Cut the rail yourself.

Rail ships long and trims to size with a hacksaw — no custom-order wait, no returns for wrong measurements. AR measure card included.

3 steps · 40 seconds

Build your exact system

No dropdown maze. Answer three questions and we pick the right motor, rail length and protocol for you.

Honest comparison

Where we win, and where we don't

The $89 retrofit robot is cheaper and fine for a rental. We are not trying to beat it on price — we are trying to never need a recharge again.

Installation

20 minutes. One screwdriver.

36% of bad reviews in this category are about installation, not hardware. So every step has a video, and the rail trims on site instead of being a made-to-order gamble.

012 min

Measure with the AR card

Print the card (or open it on any phone), stick it to the wall and snap. We read the width, then tell you exactly which rail to cut.

0212 min

Mount the rail

Brackets go into the wall or ceiling with four screws. The rail clicks in — no threading, no fishing rods, no ladders for two hours.

035 min

Plug in and pair

Connect the low-voltage adapter, open Apple Home or Alexa, and scan the Matter code. Name the room, set a scene, done.

FAQ

Questions we actually get

No. Matter over Thread talks directly to Apple Home, Alexa and Google Home. You need one Thread border router — any recent HomePod, Apple TV 4K, Echo or Nest Hub already is one.

Pick the battery module at checkout (+$15). It runs about six months per charge and charges in place. The manual clutch still works when it is flat.

Yes — that is the point. Any grommet, pencil-pleat or pinch-pleat curtain under 8 kg per panel hooks straight onto the carriers. We sell track and motors, not fabric.

Under 32 dB at one metre, measured. Soft-start and soft-stop means no jerk at either end of travel.

30 days, no questions, and we pay return shipping on US orders. Rails are trimmable, so if you cut one short by mistake we ship a replacement at cost.

Yes. The clutch releases under hand pressure, so you can always pull the curtain open or closed manually.
