This company makes some nice smart heaters. Does an integration exist or does anyone know if the communication protocol is a standard or proprietary?
Their site says it works over wifi and I can’t find anything here so I assume it proprietary?

Following up with the the solutions that I ended up going with. After talking with Boldr support, their api is private and they dont have a current integration. as of Dec 2024 a HA integration was on the development timeline scheduled for Q2 2025.
I ended up buying a wexstar(www.wexstar.com) heater hooked up to a smart plug. its working great and I think its an overall better solution for those of us who would like more control and a simpler setup. The smart plug give me all of the data that I need (current usage, the ability to turn it on and off etc) and what you would get with the more integrated Boldr product. its probability a cheaper solution too.
Overall an IR heater is a great solution for a room that just need a little additional heat. However it wont work well as a primary source of heat however. The heating is a little bit slower, but more consitatn than my old space heater. Which got way to hot way to quickly and I ended up turning it on and off a bunch ping ponging between temperatures. For my office that I like to keep a little warmer than the rest of the house and I spend a ton of time in its great. IMO its also aestheticly more pleasing and easier to mount and find a place for. It looks like a blank picture frame and you can easily mount them somewhat flush again any wall or even ceiling.
