It is automation of the home, housework or household activity.

Home automation may include centralized control of lighting, HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning), appliances, security locks of gates and doors and other systems, to provide improved convenience, comfort, energy efficiency and security.

I am looking for suggestions on smart switches which are -

  1. Dimmable
  2. Single pole and 3 way (some are 3 way n some are single pole)
  3. Standard size (so that can fit 4 of these switches in an existing 4 gang box)
  4. Reasonable cost ~$15-$20 (Need about 20 switches)
  5. Can be setup in both Alexa and Google Home

I have been seaching amazon and haven't been able to find any smart switch which checks all the boxes.

I am planning to replace all my light switches in my new home. Ultimatly i am going to have all these smart switches on a custom home automation panel on wall using an Android tablet.

Any help and suggestions is appreciated and please bear in mind this is my first post on reddit.

Thanks
