#News(Startup) [ via IoTForIndiaGroup ]
Lots of companies have introduced their version of a smart outlet, but it typically just means allowing it to be turned on and off from your phone. In my view, that’s remote control, that’s not being smart. Being smart means that you’re capable of doing a whole lot more than just being turned on and off from a phone.
Currant is a K9 portfolio company that has developed the world’s first truly smart, AI-powered electrical outlet. The Currant Smart Outlet is almost like three devices in one. It is a) the best remote and voice control outlet on the market, with an ultra-fast response time based on a mesh network; b) the most accurate electrical energy monitoring device that one can buy; and c) it has a powerful rules engine that can allow you to set up sophisticated controls for your devices.
Currant’s Smart Outlet learns from how you use the devices that are plugged into it. It understands your usage patterns and can automatically suggest rules that allow you to save energy, save money, and save the planet, by turning off the devices when you’re not using them. Parasitic power consumption as it is called from our appliances and devices being left on or in standby mode contributes to a vast amount of the wasted energy in the United States and across the world. Currant is on a mission to have an impact on climate change by empowering us to reduce waste, but without compromising the utility and convenience we’re used to.
