Bluetooth standardized how devices talk. Blue Raven standardizes who they answer to.

THE PROBLEM

Every sensor wants a subscription.

Hardware you bought outright still bills you monthly just to read its own measurements.

Every device wants a login.

An account, an app, and a terms-of-service update, all standing between you and a thermometer in your own kitchen.

Every byte routes through someone else's server.

Someone with a financial interest in what you do with your data, and the power to raise prices once you've built on it.

THE STANDARD

Blue Raven

An open protocol and certification standard for IoT hardware.
If it carries the mark, the data it generates belongs to you.

Build for yourself. Never for a corporation.

Every account, every subscription, every "works with" badge is a leash. Blue Raven hardware has no leash to hold.

THE LANDSCAPE

"Works with" ecosystems

The device answers to Amazon, Google, or Apple. Your data lives in their cloud, behind their account, under their terms. When they sunset the service, your hardware dies with it.

Matter

A real step: one standard so devices from different brands can talk. But it is run by a consortium of those same corporations, certification costs thousands, and you still drive everything through their controller apps. Built for manufacturers selling into ecosystems.

Blue Raven

Built for people building for themselves. The device posts to your endpoint or answers your queries on your own network. No account, no controller app, no consortium fee. Apache 2.0: fork it and judge us by what's there.

THE GUARANTEE

Open Protocol

A common language for hardware that anyone can read, implement, and fork.

The full specification lives in the open, licensed Apache 2.0. No royalties, no member fees, no certification gatekeeping by a vendor consortium. Read it, fork it, build on it, and judge us by what's there.

Certification Standard

Hardware carrying the mark meets a verifiable bar for openness.

Certification guarantees the device exposes its data locally, works without an account, and keeps working if the manufacturer disappears. No dark patterns, no silent firmware lock-outs, no features held hostage.

Data Sovereignty

You control your data, your endpoints, and your connections.

Blue Raven devices answer to you. Not a platform, not a corporation, not a cloud you didn't choose. Point them at your own stack, your own storage, your own rules. No lock-in. No conflict of interest.

FOR BUILDERS

Build

Shipping an app that needs hardware inputs which don't route through Amazon? Certified devices speak directly to your stack.

Sense

Building a personal OS for your health, home, or garden? Blue Raven sensors feed your infrastructure, not theirs.

Own

Making hardware people can trust? Certification tells your customers their data stays theirs. That trust is a feature no platform can match.
