Inside Ecobee’s Vision To Build A Smart Home That Listens And Learns
Ecobee is a smart-thermostat maker that has plans of creating so much more than just controlling your house’s temperature. Their biggest rival is Nest which is part of Google. Ecobee is doing its best to win against Nest.
Ecobee devices are designed to pick up voice commands even with all the noises that might be going on in the background.
Smart thermostats from Ecobee, Nest and others now adjust temperatures using artificial intelligence and real-time weather reports. You can also use apps on your smartphones and even your smartwatch to dial up the heat or air conditioning while you’re on your way home.
The vision is to build a smart home that listens and eventually, learns. Ecobee has come up with more ways for their products to understand how to cool, heat, and move about inside the house. Cooling and heating your house represent about 50% of your energy consumption.
Today, Nest is leading the smart thermostats market. Ecobee claims that its thermostats can save about 23% of energy cost while Nest devices save about 12%. The latest Ecobee4 also doubles as an Amazon Alexa smart speaker. Peak Relief is a new program by Ecobee that turns up the AC or the heat when the electricity rates are cheaper.
