Agreed. Vera absolutely has a "local API trap door", though. I used mine with Homebridge/homekit as a front-end for years before finally migrating to Home Assistant. Vera has SSH access, a web configuration UI that's fully locally hosted. Cloud connectivity is not required for it to operate.

Each row is one report from a GitHub thread, an integration’s docs, or r/homeassistant. Check the date and the linked source before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
