The `brunt` platform allows one to control Blind Engines by [Brunt](https://www.brunt.co). To use this sensor, you need a Brunt App Account. All Brunt Blind devices registered to your account are automatically added to your Home Assistant with the names given them through the Brunt app.

## {% linkable_title Configuration %}

To enable this integration, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml`:

```yaml
