Every year, CE Pro releases its highly anticipated Brand Analysis rankings. This comprehensive report is based on the input of the top 100 revenue-generating custom installation companies across the country. Each dealership is asked to rank their preferred manufacturers in various device categories. One category that has garnered significant interest the last decade has been voice control, which has historically favored mass market solutions like Amazon, Apple, and Google.
Over the years, Josh.ai has been making steady progress in this competitive landscape. What started as a gradual climb has culminated in a monumental achievement: for the first time, Josh.ai has taken the top spot from Amazon and is the industry’s leader in voice control!
