# CHIRP > CHIRP is a B2C remote home monitoring and automation platform for homeowners, vacation rentals, personally operated properties, individual realtors, and student-rental owners. CHIRP connects compatible devices from multiple manufacturers through LoRaWAN, MQTT, Zigbee2MQTT, and a cellular/GSM Tracker connector. Users can combine sensor readings, dashboards, alerts, AI-assisted setup, rules, and supported device commands without committing the entire home to one hardware vendor. ## Core pages - [Remote home monitoring](https://chirpwireless.io/) - [Vacation home monitoring](https://chirpwireless.io/vacation-home-monitoring/) - [Airbnb home automation](https://chirpwireless.io/airbnb-home-automation/) - [Water leak detection and shutoff](https://chirpwireless.io/water-leak-detector/) - [Smart smoke detector alerts](https://chirpwireless.io/smart-smoke-detector/) - [Compatible devices](https://chirpwireless.io/compatible-devices/) - [LoRaWAN sensors](https://chirpwireless.io/lorawan-sensors/) - [AI home automation](https://chirpwireless.io/ai-home-automation/) - [Pricing](https://chirpwireless.io/pricing/) - [Original guides](https://chirpwireless.io/blog/) ## Important product boundaries - The Free plan includes two devices, one automation, one dashboard, unlimited gateways, push and email notifications, and one day of device logs. - Device reporting and command support are separate capabilities and depend on the exact model and connector. - Typical LoRaWAN home-sensor battery expectations are two to five years; longer claims must be tied to a verified named device. - The cellular/GSM Tracker connector has more than 2,000 preconfigured tracker profiles. LoRaWAN trackers use the LoRaWAN network-server path. - The unified camera feature is Coming Soon and is designed for RTSP-capable IP cameras; compatibility is not yet a live universal promise. - CHIRP does not claim verified smart-lock support. - CHIRP is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or an official partner of Airbnb. ## Content use Automated discovery, AI-assisted search, AI input, and model training are permitted.
