Josh Brings AI-Powered Home Automation to Minneapolis

Josh.ai has spent over a decade solving one problem: helping a home understand you, rather than the other way around. Signal AV installs that platform throughout the Minneapolis area, from Excelsior and the Lake Minnetonka lakeshore to Wayzata, Deephaven, Orono, and the rest of the West Metro. It’s time to bring your smart home to life through voice, touch, and text.

Josh.ai Controls Every Room However You'd Like

Josh makes it possible to control every smart device as simply as possible. Use the Josh App, Touchscreen, Remote, or a voice command to personalize every detail of your lifestyle. Custom dashboards, intuitive devices, favorite scenes, and detailed settings help you manage the entire home, and it’s all laid out clearly enough that nobody needs a manual.

Instead of building a scene click by click, or line of code by line of code, Josh.ai's Natural Language Scene Editor lets you describe what you want by typing it or saying it into existence.

The Josh.ai Home Assistant Values Privacy

A living room conversation shouldn't end up as data for an ad, and with Josh, it never does. The platform's entire architecture is built around that principle; Josh will never sell your data or share it with third parties for marketing, and you decide exactly how much data your connected home collects and remembers.

Every voice command, automation, and household routine stays private by design, not by a policy’s fine print. You can manage lighting in the Josh App or ask Josh a question out loud, and you can trust that what happens inside your home is yours alone.

Describe the Mood, and Josh Builds the Scene

Skip the manual scene-builder entirely. Describe how a room should feel or operate, whether on a schedule or tied to a specific song or show, and a natural language engine turns that description into a working automation that accounts for time, weather, location, device state, and sensor data.

JoshGPT Turns Voice Control Into a Real Conversation

Josh.ai was the first platform to put hands-free generative AI into a home control system, and JoshGPT still leads that category. Every Josh voice and app interface can now reach well beyond lighting and thermostats. Ask it something you're genuinely curious about, and it answers as a person would.

Ask JoshGPT things like:

Cooking: "What's the difference between baking soda and baking powder?"
Travel: "When does the Minnesota State Fair open this year?"
Health: "How much water should I actually drink in a day?"
Art: "Why is the sky blue?"
Trivia: "What's the weather going to be like this weekend?"

Privacy Woven Into Each Layer of Minneapolis Smart Homes

Future-Proof

Josh.ai learns your household's patterns over time, from morning routines to evening wind-downs to which lights you dim without thinking twice, and starts suggesting actions before you even ask. It's not guessing, just paying close attention.

Proactive

Set up alerts so Josh.ai flags anything unusual, such as an odd access attempt or a security gap, before it's a problem. Paired with IC Realtime, DoorLink extends that awareness to your front door: verify a visitor, unlock the door, or ask what a camera sees from the app.

Personal

Adjust Josh's voice, accent, and response style through the app until the assistant genuinely sounds like part of your household, not just another device bolted onto the wall. Small details, but they add up to something that feels like yours.

It’s Real Voice Control, Not a Scripted Command List

Josh runs on a proprietary natural language engine built to handle the way people really talk, not the way a manual says they should. Compound requests, follow-up phrases, mid-sentence corrections, and location-aware context all get parsed together, so a command like "turn off the TV, play some jazz, and lock the front door" gets carried out as three separate actions instead of one confused response.

Ask a follow-up like "turn it up" a moment later, and Josh remembers exactly what "it" refers to. The result feels less like operating a system and more like talking to someone who's genuinely paying attention.

There Are Several Ways to Interact With Your Josh Smart Home

Nano

Barely bigger than a quarter, Josh Nano still commands some of the largest, most complex properties we install. Running on Josh Core as the system's brain, it proves that the hardware footprint has nothing to do with capability. The same tiny device belongs in a single bedroom or an entire estate.

Micro

Josh Micro fits in your palm, but don't let the size fool you. Inside is a full system processor and state-of-the-art voice hardware, capable of powering a complete Josh experience on its own. There’s no separate hub required, so you won’t have to compromise on what it can do.

Edge

Josh’s latest handheld remote just earned the brand its first spot among the industry's top Universal Remote Control brands. Six customizable buttons, AI-assisted programming, and tap-to-talk voice control combine in one device that looks great and operates intuitively.

Cinema

Built in partnership with AVA, the Cinema Remote pairs a dynamic keypad of three-dimensional glass with genuine mechanical clicks for tactile navigation of TV and devices in home theaters and media rooms. Near-field microphones add room-aware voice control for moments when speaking quietly makes more sense than speaking out loud.

App

The Josh App keeps every property and device you manage only one tap or command away. Custom dashboards, areas, scenes, and floor plans are all managed from the same interface, and the recent AI X OS update reimagined that home screen. See live device status, favorites, and active media at a glance.

Touchscreen

Available in polished white or black ceramic, the Josh Touchscreen brightens as you approach, and you can swipe between individual rooms or the whole house on a high-performance IPS glass display. Mount it flush to a wall or set it on a tabletop stand so everything becomes visible at once in a single glance.
