A haven for the household network.
Parental controls that work at the connection layer — schedules, time limits, and category blocking enforced right on your router. No DNS sinkholes, no app to install on every device.
How it works
Policy is decided in the cloud and enforced on the gateway router — at the connection layer, where it can't be bypassed by changing a device's DNS.
Set the rules
Create profiles for each kid — bedtimes, daily time limits, and blocked categories — from the web app. No per-device software.
The router enforces
Your wifihaven router applies the policy at the connection layer. Blocked traffic is dropped at the gateway, not faked at the DNS resolver.
See what's happening
Watch which devices are online, what they're reaching, and when limits kick in — and grant a few more minutes when it's warranted.
See it in action
One dashboard for the whole house, and a friendly block screen on the device when a limit is reached. (Preview with sample data.)

Self-host or let us host it
Same software, your choice of who runs the cloud side.
Cloud
We run the control plane; you just plug in a wifihaven router and manage everything from app.wifihaven.net. Nothing to maintain.
Self-hosted
Run the whole stack on your own hardware — the API server bundles the web app — and keep every byte of household data under your roof.
Open source
wifihaven is open source. If it's not working the way you want, read the code, open an issue, or send a pull request to fix what you see — it's your network, and your software too.
