Savant Systems, Inc.

Savant Systems, Inc. is a privately held company founded in 2005 that specializes in smart home and smart power technology. Headquartered in Hyannis, Massachusetts, the company is backed by private equity firm KKR. While specific revenue figures are not publicly disclosed, various sources estimate the company has between 245 and 500+ employees. Savant expanded its market presence significantly with the 2020 acquisition of GE Lighting, which now operates as GE Lighting, a Savant company.

Savant develops, manufactures, and sells a wide range of products for home and commercial automation. The company's core offerings unify the control of lighting, climate, entertainment, and security into a single application-based interface. Product lines include the Savant, Savant Power, and GE Lighting brands. They offer solutions for smart power management that can be integrated into standard electrical panels, lighting controls, smart thermostats, home audio and video distribution, and security systems.

The company's patent litigation posture, based on available data, is that of an operating company defending itself against infringement allegations. Savant Systems has been tracked as a defendant in one patent case and has not been a plaintiff.

The single tracked case is IoT Innovations LLC v. Savant Systems, Inc., filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts in late 2023. The plaintiff, IoT Innovations LLC, has been identified as a non-practicing entity (NPE) and an affiliate of the patent monetization firm Empire IP. IoT Innovations has asserted patents related to IoT and smart device communications against other technology companies in the smart home sector.
