Savant review
A dealer-configured home system that combines AV control with detailed energy automation.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Nov 2026
Savant brings lighting, climate, entertainment, security, shades and energy controls into a central host and app. Homeowners can create scenes and schedules, control the system remotely, receive real-time notifications, and view security cameras through the Savant Home App on a TV. Its emphasis on coordinated AV and energy management makes it a fit for homeowners who want one system to manage both. The published platform options include web, iOS and Android, with voice control through Alexa, Google Assistant and supported remote options.
Energy management is a notable part of the system rather than an add-on to basic device control. Savant provides circuit-level views of energy use and production, and can automate energy activity according to a schedule, grid state or battery charge. That depth should appeal to households that want energy behavior tied to home routines and power conditions. Scenes and scheduled climate and lighting routines also support day-to-day automation, while integrations include entertainment services such as Spotify, Netflix, Apple TV and Hulu.
Savant is presented as a customized, dealer-supported installation centered on a host, not as a standalone software subscription. Pricing is contact-sales, so buyers should expect to discuss their home and installation with a dealer or integrator rather than compare a published software tier. Savant has no free plan, and the listed support channel is documentation. This model makes sense for homeowners prioritizing integrated AV, energy monitoring and coordinated controls; buyers seeking a self-directed, open-source setup or a subscription with straightforward published pricing should look elsewhere.
