Wemo Ops Center

Welcome to Wemo Ops. We offer three ways to manage your smart home, depending on your needs. You can run the Desktop App for instant control on your workstation, deploy the Server for always-on automation, or use the MCP Server for AI assistant integration.

Resurrect your hardware. The Wemo Cloud is dead, but your devices don't have to be.

Wemo Ops Center is a completely local, offline provisioning and automation suite for Belkin Wemo devices. It allows you to setup, control, automate, and factory reset Wemo plugs and switches without needing the official app or a cloud account.

• Alternative to official Wemo App
• Provision Wemo Devices with Python
• Belkin Wemo local control setup
• Wemo troubleshooting and Wi-Fi profision

🚀 Choose Your Edition

Note: The MCP Server has been moved to its own dedicated repository at apiarya/wemo-mcp-server for better discoverability and to follow MCP ecosystem best practices.

🚀 Key Features (v5.2.3)

1. 📡 Universal Provisioner

• No Cloud Required: Connect directly to a new or reset Wemo device's Wi-Fi (Wemo.Mini.xxx) and push your Wi-Fi credentials instantly.

• Profile Manager: Save your Wi-Fi SSID and Password to quickly provision multiple devices in seconds.

2. 🎛️ Network Dashboard & VLAN Support
