Connect your devices to Geeni plugs to make them smart.

Simply plug the device into a socket, recognize it in the app and start voice control of our assistant Amazon Alexa, Google Home or even Microsoft Cortana.

For example, we can plug in a lamp, label the socket: Light, and then ask our assistant: “Turn on the light.” And there was light!

If you don't have a voice assistant, no problem, as you can also activate the plugs using your smartphone.

You don't even need to buy new blinds, you just need to add a small solar-powered motor to do the work.

Not only can we control it with our phone or even by voice via Alexa or Google, but we can also set time periods and even the maximum temperature we want in our room so that the curtains will open or close automatically.
