What Teletask does

Teletask is a Belgian family-owned manufacturer of integrated home and building automation systems, founded in 1984 by Johan Vander Beken and headquartered in Ghent. The company designs and produces a proprietary product stack built around its AUTOBUS communication protocol and DoIP (Domotics over IP) networking layer, with decentralised central control units (DOMUS, PALAS, NANOS), ultra-slim wall-mounted user interfaces (AURUS, OPUS) and a software ecosystem (PROSOFT configuration, ATMOS mobile app, Control Tower, VOICESOFT, CARDSOFT, AV-SOFT) layered on top. End products integrate lighting (including DALI/DSI/DMX and 0-10V dimming interfaces), HVAC, security and access control, audio/video distribution, motorized curtains and blinds, and now EV chargers and solar inverters via integration partnerships announced in 2024. Teletask's products are specified for 30+ year operational lifespans with backward compatibility across hardware generations and MTBF rated above 20 years, positioning the company in the high-end residential and small-commercial segment rather than the consumer mass market. Notably named deployments include House of Porters (Antwerp hotel), the Pinea Hills luxury complex in Morocco, and the Smart Village project (84 homes).

The company operates a channel-first go-to-market model, selling exclusively through certified distributors and trained system integrators across 40+ countries, with regional entities in India (51%-owned subsidiary since 2008) and the Middle East (Dubai franchise since 2011). Anchor channel partnerships have persisted for decades, including Stagobel in Belgium (1996) and Isolectra in the Netherlands (1997). Revenue is generated through four streams: hardware sales (central units, touch panels, dimmers, interfaces), software licences (PROSOFT, HVAC, GUI, audio IP licences), cloud subscriptions (TTcloud, TSF services) and professional services (training, certification, technical support via TT School). Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is structured project-by-project through channel partners. Teletask has historically been conservative on growth, remaining family-owned with no external fundraising and 11-50 employees, prioritising quality, longevity and backward compatibility over volume. ISO 9001 certified since 2012, the company has launched successive hardware generations (G2, G3) and continuous product updates, including the 40th-anniversary release of AURUS-6 (TEMP), PENTUS and PROSOFT 5 in 2024.

Core offering

TELETASK manufactures and sells an integrated home automation system based on proprietary central control units (DOMUS, PALAS) that orchestrate lighting, climate, security, access control, audio/video, motorized curtains/blinds, and energy management. The offering combines proprietary hardware (central units, AURUS/OPUS touch panels, dimmers, sensors, DALI/DSI/DMX interfaces) with configuration and cloud software (PROSOFT, ATMOS app, TTcloud, Control Tower), sold primarily through certified distributors and system integrators worldwide.

Product overview

TELETASK offers a unified, integrated home automation system built around central control units (DOMUS and PALAS) that manage all building functions. The system connects diverse subsystems including lighting (with various dimmers and protocols like DALI), climate control (heating, cooling, ventilation), security, access control, audio/video distribution, and curtains/blinds. User interaction is through elegant wall-mounted touch panels (AURUS and OPUS) and the ATMOS mobile app. System configuration is performed by professional installers using PROSOFT software, while TTcloud and TTecomm provide cloud connectivity and remote services. Voice control is available through VOICESOFT integration with Amazon Alexa and Google Home. The product portfolio spans over 40 years of development, with generations of hardware (G3 central units, various sensor types) and software (PROSOFT, ATMOS, Control Tower) maintaining backward compatibility throughout.
