Hello,
I am looking for suitable "smart" radiator thermostats for some acquaintances.
The thermostats do not need to have many features.
They want to do the following with them:
Set a desired temperature, and the thermostat handles the rest.
Window open detection.
Optional scheduling (if not available, that’s also fine).
Possibility to add window sensors later that can communicate with the thermostats (also not mandatory).
They only need two units and currently do not have any other smart home devices, nor do they plan to.
Many thermostats require a bridge, which seems excessive for just two units, so they would prefer Wi-Fi-enabled ones.
Can you recommend a few options that might be suitable?

The options are quite limited and challenging, so I am asking for advice here.

They supposedly perform a continuous hydraulic balancing.
Does that actually help?

Which models can you recommend?
