Josh.ai Voice Control Setup in Collingwood & Georgian Bay

    Josh.ai is the voice control platform we recommend to clients who want natural-language control of their home without cloud data mining. It sits on top of your existing automation system, including Crestron Home, Control4, or Lutron, and listens, processes, and responds on hardware inside your home rather than on a server farm somewhere else. Summit Logic installs Josh.ai across Collingwood, Thornbury, and the Blue Mountains for families who want privacy-first voice.

    What is Included in a Josh.ai Setup

    Josh Core processor rack-mounted with the rest of your central equipment

    Josh Micro microphones placed in kitchens, great rooms, and primary bedrooms where natural conversation already happens

    Josh Nano units for smaller spaces like home offices, mudrooms, and walk-in closets

    Integration with Crestron Home, Control4, Lutron HomeWorks QSX, Sonos, Ajax, and HomeKit-compatible climate so one phrase controls multiple subsystems

    Custom vocabulary tuned to your household so room names, scene names, and shortcuts match how the family actually talks

    Room-level enable and disable controls so guest rooms, kids' rooms, or specific times of day can be muted

    Multi-user voice recognition so commands respect per-person permissions and preferences

    Privacy-first local processing: voice is interpreted on hardware inside the home, not sent to a cloud advertising company

    Our Approach: Design, Install, Commission, Support

    Design

    We start with a site walk and a pre-construction meeting alongside your builder, architect, and designer. Every project gets an AV block diagram and rack elevation before any wire is pulled, so decisions are made at framing stage rather than after drywall.

    Install

    Rough-in wiring is completed during framing. The equipment rack is assembled and bench-tested in our shop, not on-site, and every cable is labelled at both ends. We coordinate directly with the electrician and finish trades throughout the build.

    Commission

    Programming happens in the home, not in simulation. Every scene is tested with the family present during handover, you receive written handoff documentation, and a 30-day tuning window is built in to refine routines once you are living with the system.

    Support

    Remote system monitoring and automatic firmware updates keep the system current. Cottage properties get seasonal check-ups, response targets are published on your service plan, and the person who programmed the system answers the phone.
