This is a place to pitch goofy million dollar ideas that you had in the shower, as you were falling asleep, or during a fever dream. Think of it is as shitty Shark Tank.

The usual rules apply:

No bigotry
Be nice to each other

Remote access (such as via a phone or computer) and automation. It is nice to be able to do anything you want in your home. For example:

Attaching a humidity sensor to a smart switch for the exhaust fan in your bathroom to turn on and off automatically based on humidity level.
Have lights change hue based on time of day to assist with your circadian rhythm.
Shut off all lights and TVs in the house at 3am.
Using a water detector in the laundry room or kitchen to inform you of a water leak by sending a notification to your phone and beeping loudly.

I personally would not want toilet flushing as a smart feature.
