Our Reading
The launch follows a familiar script.
Reservoir’s smart water heater joins the ranks of “smart” home devices that promise to make our lives more efficient. It’s a water heater that can predict when you’ll need hot water, because apparently, we can’t be trusted to do that ourselves. It also detects leaks, because who needs a plumber when you have AI? And, of course, it stores energy, because that’s what all the cool devices do these days. Reservoir’s innovation is really just a rebranding of existing technologies.
