Brilliant NextGen Launches New Subscription Service That Transforms Smart Homes into Automated Living ExperiencesNew service offering delivers intelligent automation, ongoing optimization, premium support, and exclusive subscriber benefitsBrilliant NextGen today announced the launch of Brilliant Max, a new subscription offering that transforms Brilliant from a smart home control system into a fully managed and automated smart home experience.Built on top of Brilliant's award-winning hardware platform, the new service is designed for homeowners who want the benefits of a smart home without the complexity of configuring, managing and maintaining one. Brilliant Max delivers intelligent automation through pre-configured Modes, continuous optimization across connected devices, premium support, hardware upgrade opportunities and exclusive subscriber benefits including a complimentary smart home sensor. Modes automate common scenarios and orchestrate them across smart home devices connected to Brilliant."Consumers don't want another system to manage - they want a home that simply works for them," said Jonathan Temlock, President and CEO of Brilliant NextGen. "Our Brilliant Max service represents the next evolution of the smart home. Instead of spending time creating automations, troubleshooting devices or managing multiple apps, homeowners can enjoy a home that intelligently adapts to their lifestyle from day one. This is about delivering convenience, peace of mind and a smarter experience that continuously improves over time."Solving the Smart Home Adoption ChallengeWhile smart home technology has become increasingly popular, many homeowners struggle to realize its full value. Complex setup processes, fragmented ecosystems, unreliable automations and ongoing maintenance requirements often lead to frustration and underutilized systems.Brilliant's new service addresses these challenges by delivering a "set it and forget it" experience that utilizes intelligent Modes that automatically manages the home. The first set of Modes released are:Away Mode: Automatically adjusts home systems and enhances security when residents leave.Vacation Mode: Secures and manages the home during extended absences.The second set of Modes will be:Home Mode: Optimizes comfort and energy efficiency while occupants are home.Night Mode: Nested within Home Mode, this prepares the home for sleep with customized comfort, and energy-saving settings.These pre-configured Modes eliminate the need for homeowners to build and maintain complex automation routines while ensuring devices work together as a unified ecosystem. Every Brilliant Max subscription includes a Shelly Bluetooth Door/Window Sensor, extending the system’s awareness of occupancy, movement, and entry activity throughout the home. Shelly Bluetooth Motion Sensors can be added separately to enhance monitoring capabilities. Sensors and a new integration with select Shelly devices play a critical role in expanding the reach and depth of Brilliant’s intelligent Modes. Subscribers can also add additional sensors to expand coverage and unlock more advanced automation scenarios.Benefits for HomeownersSubscribers gain access to a fully managed smart home experience that goes beyond traditional device control. Brilliant Max delivers intelligent, pre-configured automation, continuous optimization of connected devices, proactive notifications and enhanced remote awareness of home activity. Members also receive premium customer support, a complimentary door/window sensor, and upgrade opportunities for older Brilliant Controls.By combining automation, monitoring, and ongoing system optimization, Brilliant helps homeowners improve energy efficiency, reduce operating costs, and enjoy greater peace of mind. The result is a smart home that seamlessly adapts to daily routines, saving time, eliminating complexity and maximizing the value of every connected device. Our customers agree.
