The Fernwood family

One family of brands. One answer.

Fernwood&Co is the parent company behind a small family of brands in building and technology. Each one is run by the same people, with the same promise: the right experts, and one lead who owns the result.

How it fits together

Two sides, one front door.

Building and technology look like opposites. In a modern home or business they meet in every wall, so we keep them under one roof.

Fernwood & Smart Build

From custom applications to advanced home and AI needs. Every remodel includes a technology package planned while the walls are open: prewire, network, smart controls, cameras and energy monitoring. One contract, one lead.

  • Tech designed into the build, not added after drywall
  • One plan and one point of contact for builders and tech
  • Smart housing and custom apps: whole-home automation, an in-home AI on the way through Naeio

Technology · AI platform

Naeio

"The AI Platform for EVERYONE!" Naeio picks the right AI model for each task based on your own settings for cost, speed and environmental impact, and shows the cost, time and carbon before anything runs. Your history and documents stay in your own cloud drive.

  • Tap-to-answer design, built so anyone can use AI quickly
  • Invite-only: members share invites with people they know

Technology · Email privacy

IWTY I Won't Tell You

An email filter, not another inbox. Hand out an IWTY address instead of your real one, then choose what gets through: block everything, let only legitimate mail pass, or allow it all, with marketing on or off.

  • Keeps your real address out of sign-up lists
  • Optional privacy layer for Naeio members
