Parks Associates' compelling study finds that between 42% and 52% of consumers are inclined to subscribe to a monthly service for an AI smart home assistant that provides essential features such as safety, security, maintenance, and convenience.

As highlighted by Elizabeth Parks, President and CMO of Parks Associates, these features significantly improve the core values of smart homes and allow AI to elevate them further.

Parks Associates' report delves into how consumers perceive AI and their readiness to pay for these kinds of services.
