Deako, the leader in modular whole-home smart lighting systems, and Josh.ai, the industry’s most advanced AI-powered control platform for the home, announced a new integration that makes connected lighting easier to access and automate across living spaces.
The partnership allows builders and integrators to pair Deako’s flexible lighting infrastructure with Josh.ai’s modern control products to deliver rapid and reliable automation without the complexity or cost of legacy high-end systems. Homes can now be built “AI-ready” using standard wiring and Deako backplates, with advanced automation added seamlessly when desired.
“Deako was built around the idea that homes should be ready for what’s next. Partnering with Josh.ai demonstrates the power of our modular platform to support sophisticated, high-end automation without locking builders or homeowners into rigid systems. This proves that future-proof infrastructure and premium experiences can go hand-in-hand,” said Derek Richardson, CEO of Deako.

“Our focus has always been on delivering a seamless and refined smart home experience through Josh.ai.

We’re proud to integrate with their platform and expand the possibilities within the Josh.ai ecosystem,” said Alex Capecelatro, CEO of Josh.ai.
With the Deako and Josh.ai integration, Deako Smart Switches and Dimmers connect to the local network, where the Josh.ai processor automatically discovers lighting loads and creates the home’s floorplan for further customization. With Josh.ai, homeowners can control lights however is easiest using touch, text, or natural voice commands. The Josh App, Josh Edge remote, and all Josh.ai interfaces provide two-way feedback ensuring the system always reflects the current state of each Deako switch.
