The Google Nest Safe framework was launched by Google in 2017. It was designed to be modular, based on a small hockey puck-shaped unit to arm and disarm the machine with a keyboard called the Nest Guard as the central hub, sensors called Nest Detects throughout the building, and NFC key fobs.

The Nest Safe device debuted at $499, but less than a year later, Google lowered the price to $399.
