Josh.ai Celebrates Tenth Birthday With Launch of Limited Edition Hardware 💛🎉
Honoring a decade of AI-powered innovation and growth, Josh.ai introduces a special edition metallic gold Josh One to celebrate its tenth birthday.
DENVER, CO — April 15th, 2025 — Josh.ai, the custom installation channel’s modern control platform of choice, is celebrating a decade in business this month. Since its founding in 2015, Josh.ai has proudly disrupted the custom electronics industry with cutting edge product development and AI-powered innovation. The company’s tenth birthday serves as a moment to reflect on how Josh.ai has pushed the boundaries of technology in the home since its inception.
In honor of this milestone, Josh.ai has introduced a special version of its new Josh One processor in metallic gold. Available now, the metallic gold Josh One was produced in a small batch, and is offered in limited quantities as a promotion to current Josh.ai dealers.
“The last ten years have flown by thanks to the excitement and commitment of our partners. We are proud to have built a company focused on building dealers the solutions they need to enable simple, magical, and private smart home experiences in the era of AI,” says Josh.ai CEO Alex Capecelatro. “It has been a wild ride for our team with so many memorable moments and achievements, and I cannot wait to see where Josh.ai will be in another decade!”
Josh.ai has built a brand with mass-market appeal while staying true to professionals, introducing innovative products available only to authorized dealers. In addition to establishing itself as the industry leader in voice control, Josh.ai has evolved into a leading whole-home automation platform for its network of over 2,000 certified dealers across North America.
After shipping the first Josh.ai product on a Mac Mini in 2016, the award-winning Josh Micro was launched in 2017 to bring voice control and AI based home automation to a broader audience within the pro channel. At the end of 2020, the company shook up the industry once again with its unveiling of Josh Nano and Josh Core during its first ever Keynote presentation.
In 2021, the company launched its collaboration with Lutron to introduce the Josh.ai Ready Wallplate, combining Lutron Keypads with Josh Nano architectural microphones. The Josh.ai Ready Wallplate delivers the ability to control a variety of home technology with voice, while maintaining tactile control for the most used scenes, accessible at the touch of a button through keypads. For example, clients can push a pre-programmed “Relax” button on their keypad and also access the nearly 16.7 million colors from Ketra, simply by asking for what they want.
In partnership with AVA, the company debuted its first universal remote control experience in 2022 to put the power of Josh.ai in the palm of every client’s hand. Josh.ai then transformed the breadth of its AI and control capabilities in 2023, with the introduction of JoshGPT’s limitless intelligent assistance and the debut of its first generation Josh One control processor respectively.
2024 was a banner year for Josh.ai, highlighted by the launch of the award-winning AI OS software product as the foundation powering the Josh App and all of its user interfaces. Josh Touchscreen started shipping, providing clients with the best of traditional control along with industry-leading innovation in every room. Josh Edge was presented to dealers as a simple hard-button remote and reached its crowdfunding goal to kick off development; Josh.ai plans on shipping Josh Edge later in 2025. Last but not least, was the debut of Nimble DevSuite as Josh.ai’s open source integration platform focused on propelling the future of interoperability in the smart home.
Following its 2025 Winter Launch Event, Josh.ai is positioned at the forefront of home intelligence going forward. Thanks to the redesigned Josh One control processor, compelling software features like DoorLink intercom and the Josh App’s reimagined music controller, and unmatched AI capabilities with JoshGPT 3.0, Josh.ai continues raising the bar in the modern home.
Josh.ai turning ten is a testament to the vision of its leadership and unwavering support of the CI community. The company’s continued growth would not be possible without a shared commitment to excellence among its dealers and integration partners. Driven by a passion for innovation, joyous user experiences, and the limitless potential of connected living spaces, the best is yet to come for AI in the home!
