Install via HACS or the Marketplace
IntelliKeep is in the HACS default list, so you can find it with a search, without adding a custom repository. Home Assistant 2026.11 and later include the Marketplace, which installs from the same catalog. On earlier versions, use HACS. Either one is the recommended installation method, and both tell you when a new version is out.
Prerequisites
- Home Assistant 2026.1 or later
- Before Home Assistant 2026.11, HACS installed in your Home Assistant instance
Open IntelliKeep directly
The button opens IntelliKeep in the Marketplace, or in HACS before Home Assistant 2026.11. Then follow the steps below from the point where IntelliKeep is open.
Marketplace (Home Assistant 2026.11 or later)
- Go to Settings → Marketplace. The first time, read the warning and accept it
- Search for IntelliKeep and open it
- Select Install, then Install again in the dialog
- If the Marketplace asks for a restart, select Restart Home Assistant
- Select Set up and follow the setup wizard. You can also do it later under Settings → Devices & Services → Add Integration
HACS (earlier versions)
- Open HACS in your Home Assistant sidebar
- Search for IntelliKeep and click Download
- Restart Home Assistant
- Go to Settings → Devices & Services → Add Integration
- Search for IntelliKeep and follow the setup wizard
After setup, the IntelliKeep panel shows up in the Home Assistant sidebar, and the dashboard card is ready to be added to any dashboard.
Updating
With the Marketplace, new versions show up under Settings → Updates. With HACS, they show up in HACS. Install the update and restart Home Assistant. Read the changelog first, and if you are moving from 1.x to 2.x, read Upgrading from 1.x.
