Homelab DNS Control Plane & Sync SaaS
A centralized SaaS dashboard that manages, monitors, and synchronizes configurations across multiple local DNS instances (Pi-hole, AdGuard, Unbound). It solves the 'kludgy' manual replication of split-horizon DNS and failover rules without requiring users to abandon their self-hosted setups.
Why this matters
A centralized SaaS dashboard that manages, monitors, and synchronizes configurations across multiple local DNS instances (Pi-hole, AdGuard, Unbound). It solves the 'kludgy' manual replication of split-horizon DNS and failover rules without requiring users to abandon their self-hosted setups.
- · Built for Homelabbers and prosumers running multiple local servers who want high availability without the headache of manual configuration sync..
- · Most likely monetization: SaaS subscription ($2-$4/mo) or Freemium (free for 2 nodes, paid for more).

Community Voices
Real quotes from Reddit comments that inspired this opportunity
- “It’s kludgy because it’s controlled by the client instead of centralized, because any complexity in your dns management (like split horizon or whatever) has to be manually replicated”
- “I sync them if anything changes.”
- “Network config is painful and you fight it on every update.”
- “I run Technitium to combine what was Pi-hole+ubound setups, it's more complex and slightly higher learning curve”
- “1 DNS - Pihole and Unbound / 2 DNS - Nextdns”
