Field notes
The workflow uses a spare iPhone, iPad, or Mac near the TV; the page says audio analysis stays on that device and is never recorded or uploaded. A sudden loud crack first lowers volume, then confirmed booms mute speakers; settings return a few seconds after the last boom. Listed integrations include Sonos, Roku, Samsung, Sony, Denon/Marantz, Yamaha, Bose, and others. The page invites beta sign-ups.
