SAVANT & APPLE®

At the Core of Savant's Platform... is Apple®

Apple’s renowned operating system, Mac OS X®, has been the driving force behind every Savant SmartSystem shipped since we first opened our doors. While other competing control companies claim to offer tight interoperability with Apple® products, Savant goes way beyond just integration. Savant is the only home and commercial control, automation and entertainment product line built on an Apple platform, providing users with an unmatched level of responsiveness and a rich line of customizable user interface options limited only by their imaginations.

Savant platform: RacePoint Blueprint™

No longer will customers have to rely on automation products that possess a significant and costly gap between hardware and software. And, that have a strong dependence on pricey 3rd-party programmers and set-up experts for control activation.  At the core of every Savant Smart Home control or commercial installation is a reliable and maintenance-friendly open platform combining the most advanced and revolutionary media and computing products from Apple, a breakthrough configuration and control software called RacePoint Blueprint™, and the power of a Savant SmartSystem.

Without the need to write a single line of code, Savant’s pioneering Blueprint software solution configures and controls any AV component or sub–system in a fraction of the time it would take to program competing AV control systems.  Built upon Apple’s latest Mac OS®, Blueprint provides the CE, CEDIA, and commercial channels, offering an intelligent solution that overcomes the lack of standards in the industry and the complex nature of integrating various audio/video and environmental sub-systems.

• Underlining advantage: drastic improvement in customer satisfaction, as end users of smart home and pro AV products and dealers benefit from smoother installations and effortless system upgrades and modifications.
