Why we exist
Too many systems are left half-finished and unsupported — fragmented apps, half-working scenes, devices that lose connection. Too many builds end with an integrator who shows up late, doesn't coordinate with the trades, and leaves a mess for someone else to fix.
Comet Innovations builds the opposite: designed to disappear into the home, and looked after long after the install. We're small, we're senior, and we're accountable from the first call to the warranty service three years in.
How we work
No quotas. No commission tiers that push us toward the higher-margin gear. We recommend what we'd put in our own home — Lutron lighting, Sonos audio, Ubiquiti networking, Home Assistant control, and a small set of others we've validated over years of installs.
We work with homeowners directly and through architect, builder, and interior designer partners. We start every project with a conversation, not a quote.
Who we work with
- Homeowners — new builds, major renovations, retrofits, and ongoing care.
- Architects — early-design integration so the technology supports the architecture instead of fighting it.
- Builders & general contractors — we fit your build schedule and coordinate with your trades.
- Interior designers — we keep the technology hidden so your design stays clean.
The Comet family
Comet Innovations is one of a small group of Bay Area businesses that share the Comet name and values:
- Comet Innovations — that's us — smart-home and business technology.
- Comet Associates — technical consulting and advisory.
- Comet Design Studio — bespoke solution design and custom fabrication.
- Comet Adventures — considered travel planning.
Each operates independently, but we share a commitment to craftsmanship, accessibility, and treating customers like people.
