JBT deploys the Brilliant Smart Home Control panel and Brilliant for Multifamily platform across Atlanta apartment communities, integrating intercom, access, lighting, climate, and property management workflows on one in-wall touchscreen.
Brilliant replaces a standard light switch with an in-wall touchscreen that becomes the resident's home base for lighting, climate, music, video intercom, smart locks, and voice control. The Brilliant for Multifamily platform extends that experience into a portfolio-grade tool: property managers provision units, control move-in and move-out workflows, and surface utility savings while residents get a single pane of glass instead of five separate apps. Brilliant integrates natively with Latch and ButterflyMX intercoms, Honeywell and ecobee thermostats, Sonos audio, August and Yale locks, Ring doorbells, and property management systems like RealPage, Yardi, and Entrata. JBT installs Brilliant in new-construction Class A apartments, value-add renovations, build-to-rent communities, and mixed-use residential projects across Atlanta. We handle pre-wire coordination with the GC and electrician, network and PoE design, panel and switch installation, integration with the property's existing intercom and access stack, resident onboarding documentation, and ongoing portfolio support so leasing teams can market a true smart-apartment experience.
Single-gang in-wall touchscreen panel that replaces a standard light switch and acts as the entry-point Brilliant Control for studios, bedrooms, and secondary rooms with full app, voice, and scene access.
Two-gang touchscreen Control with dual capacitive dimmer sliders, ideal for kitchens and living areas where residents need direct control of two load circuits plus the full Brilliant interface.
Three-gang Control panel with three load sliders, commonly placed at unit entry foyers as the hero panel for whole-home scenes, intercom answer, and thermostat control.
Four-gang flagship Control for great rooms and large open-plan layouts requiring four dimmer circuits alongside the touchscreen for video intercom, lock control, and music.
In-wall companion dimmer that pairs with any Brilliant Control to extend single-tap, scene, and motion lighting across the unit without adding another touchscreen at every location.
Cloud management layer that lets property staff provision units, push branded UI, automate move-in and move-out resets, and integrate Latch, ButterflyMX, RealPage, Yardi, and Entrata with the in-unit Control.
Native integrations with Latch, ButterflyMX, and 2N video intercoms plus August, Yale, and Schlage smart locks, so residents answer the lobby call, unlock the door, and grant guest access from the Brilliant panel.

Yes. Brilliant for Multifamily has direct integrations with Yardi, RealPage, and Entrata so resident move-in and move-out events in the PMS automatically provision or wipe the in-unit Brilliant Control. JBT configures the integration during deployment and validates the data flow with your property management team before go-live.
When a lease is signed in your PMS, Brilliant for Multifamily automatically creates the resident account, sends the app invite, and links the unit. At move-out the panel is wiped, all resident credentials and personal automations are cleared, and the unit returns to a clean factory-style state ready for the next resident — without staff touching the panel.
Yes. The Brilliant Control has a built-in microphone and speaker and works with Amazon Alexa for voice control of lighting, scenes, climate, music, and integrated devices. Google Assistant and Apple Home connections are also supported through the Brilliant app for residents who prefer those ecosystems.
Both. New construction is easier because we coordinate gang-box depth, neutral wires, and low-voltage drops during rough-in. Retrofits are very common in value-add renovations across Atlanta — JBT scopes existing wiring, flags units that need a neutral wire pulled, and stages the rollout to minimize resident disruption.
Brilliant has native integrations with both Latch and ButterflyMX. Lobby video intercom calls ring directly to the in-unit Brilliant Control panel, residents can answer and grant entry from the touchscreen, and Latch credentials and ButterflyMX visitor management surface inside the Brilliant resident app alongside lighting and climate.
JBT builds a portfolio playbook covering panel SKUs per unit type, network and PoE standards, PMS integration, branded UI, and a repeatable move-in/move-out workflow. Brilliant for Multifamily gives ownership a single management plane across properties, and JBT handles the field deployment, training, and warranty logistics property by property.
