Fueling the company’s continuing momentum, Josh.ai, has announced a partnership with the national buying group Azione Unlimited.

The A.I. (artificial intelligence)-based home control company says that after evaluating the custom installation landscape, Azione Unlimited provides a good match for the company’s long-term aspirations.

“We’re long admired Azione since the early days of Josh.ai, often speaking at their summits about voice control, AI and the future of our industry,” comments Alex Capecalatro, CEO, Josh.ai.

“Now that we have surpassed 500 certified dealers, the timing feels right to start engaging with buying groups. We have the utmost respect for the dealers, manufacturers and programs at Azione, and feel fortunate to be joining their ranks.”

Josh.ai was founded back in 2015, and its platform includes a custom natural language processing engine that’s capable of handling multiple requests in a single command.

The company’s Josh Micro is one of many hardware solutions that supports the voice control capabilities of Josh.ai’s systems. The all-in-one smart home processor, along with Josh.ai’s hands-free voice assistant are sold exclusively through professional integrators.

Updating its product line, Josh.ai recently introduced its 4.0 version iOS app. According to the company, the newly updated app provides users with the ability to view cameras; the ability to monitor the state of their devices, the ability to easily create scenes, and the ability to control their entire home via voice control or graphical user interface (GUI).

Capecalatro also points out that not only does his company provide state-of-the-art home control solutions, it provides something that many people consider more valuable: privacy.

“We believe privacy is a basic human right, particularly when dealing with voice control technology in the most private spaces of a person’s life,” he emphasizes.

“We don’t think it’s necessary to have to choose between cutting edge technology and a feeling of privacy. With Josh.ai you get both.”
