The app people actually use

Savant is known for a clean, intuitive app, with scenes that anyone in the family can create and adjust.

Built for the Apple ecosystem

Savant works naturally with iPhone, iPad and Apple TV, including a TV-based home screen and Siri on Apple TV.

Energy and power control

Savant Power adds circuit-level monitoring and control, so you can see what the house is using and keep essentials running during an outage.

Premium remotes and keypads

The Pro Remote combines a touch screen with physical buttons, and designer keypads fit modern interiors.

What we integrate with Savant

One Savant app, a few keypads and the Pro Remote run the whole property:

Is Savant right for your home?

Savant is usually a strong fit for owners who live on iPhone and Apple TV, want an app the whole family will use, or are interested in energy management with solar and battery storage. It works well in new construction and in retrofits.

For very large or highly custom estates, Crestron may be the better platform, and Control4 is usually the most cost-effective. Savant also pairs well with Lutron lighting and shades. Because we are authorized for all three, we recommend the platform that fits the home. Compare typical budgets in our smart home cost guide.

How a Savant project works with Cali Automation

  1. Consultation. We review your plans or walk the home and learn how you want to live in it.
  2. System design. Device locations, lighting and shade layouts, wire runs, rack layout and an itemized proposal.
  3. Pre-wire and rough-in. Structured cabling and low-voltage infrastructure during construction, coordinated with your builder and electrician.
  4. Installation and programming. Device installation, network setup and Savant programming by our certified team.
  5. Handover and support. Walkthrough and training for the family, then remote monitoring, updates and service when you need it.
