Savant is the premium home automation platform built from the ground up on Apple technology. Founded in 2005, Savant has established itself as the system of choice for discerning homeowners who demand exceptional quality, intuitive control, and seamless integration.
Unlike other automation platforms, Savant was designed with Apple's ecosystem at its core. This means native integration with iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, HomePod, and CarPlay—plus industry-first Siri voice control for whole-home automation, launched in 2025.
The Savant Pro App puts your entire home at your fingertips. Control lighting scenes, adjust temperature, play music throughout your home, monitor security cameras, and manage energy consumption—all from a single, beautifully designed interface.
What sets Savant apart is the TrueImage lighting interface. This patented augmented reality technology uses actual photographs of your rooms. Simply touch the image of a light to control it, and see exactly how your chosen settings will look in real-time. It's lighting control that feels genuinely magical.
Savant systems are designed for longevity. Many installations from 2005 remain fully operational today—a testament to the platform's reliability and commitment to ongoing software updates.
Savant's patented TrueImage technology transforms how you interact with lighting. Using augmented reality and actual photographs of your rooms, you simply touch the image of any light to control it. Choose from millions of colours, adjust brightness, and see real-time visual feedback showing exactly how your settings will look—before you apply them.
Intelligent temperature control integrates with your existing heating and cooling systems. Create automated schedules that adapt to your lifestyle, set comfort preferences for each zone of your home, and enjoy energy efficiency without sacrificing comfort. The system learns your preferences over time, making adjustments automatically.
Savant Music supports 12 major streaming services including Spotify, Apple Music, TIDAL, and Qobuz—all accessible from a single interface. Enjoy 24-bit/96kHz high-resolution audio throughout your home with AirPlay 2 support. The cross-service search means you can find any track, artist, or album regardless of which service hosts it.
Unified control of all your entertainment equipment. SmartView Video Tiling lets you monitor multiple sources simultaneously—perfect for keeping an eye on news, sports scores, or security cameras whilst watching a film. Support for 4K and 8K ensures your cinema room remains future-proof.
Integrate camera systems, access control, and alert notifications into your Savant system. Receive instant notifications on your phone when someone arrives, view live camera feeds from anywhere in the world, and grant temporary access codes to visitors—all from the Savant app.
The Savant Power System provides circuit-level monitoring with revenue-grade accuracy. Track real-time energy usage, receive instant notifications if a breaker trips, and benefit from Storm Watch—which automatically charges your battery storage when severe weather approaches.

Is Savant better than Control4?
Savant and Control4 serve different markets. Savant offers deeper Apple integration, a more premium interface, and is positioned for the luxury market. Control4 provides excellent value with broader compatibility at lower price points. We're certified dealers for both platforms and will recommend the right solution for your needs.

Yes. Savant offers deep Apple ecosystem integration including native HomeKit support and AirPlay 2. New for 2025, Savant introduced industry-first native Siri voice control for whole-home automation. It works seamlessly with iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, HomePod, and CarPlay.
How long does Savant installation take?
Installation timelines vary based on system complexity. A single-room setup might take 1-2 days, whilst a comprehensive whole-home system could require 2-4 weeks. New build installations are typically faster than retrofits since wiring can be completed during first fix.
