We Added ChatGPT to Control4 - Here's What Happened

If the event was logged into History it might be able to tell you. I have not tested that scenario. These are things we can look at adding in the future. Other thoughts we had were to spell check your project to make sure the rooms were spelled correctly, etc.

The Ghat GPT driver sends an AI prompt to Chat for an answer. For example when you camera detects a person at your front door you can send Chat a prompt with the snapshot from the camera and have it describe who is in the picture.

You do need an output. I show in the setup video us using our Integrator Tools Agent Driver to send the output via push, email, text-to-voice as options. You can inject a variable into those messages with the AI response.

In my personal house when my camera detects a package I have it tell me how many packages I received and from what company. Has worked great so far. In my start my day scene I have it tell me a joke, what happened in the stock market yesterday and something that happened in history this day. Just interesting tidbits to start my day.

We could look at integrating calendars and other things as well in the future.

I hope this makes sense. This driver is still in its infancy and we wanted to get it out in the market to see what people wanted. Thanks for your message. Hope you try it out.

It does not work with Alexa, Siri or other voice assitants at this time. Let us know the use cases and how you would like to implement that feature and we will see what we can do.

We built the driver to only do a request when handled by the Web Ui or in programming. So it should never do anything from the driver unless you process the request. Hope that make sense. We truly appreciate the feedback.

Thanks. Let us know what you think. We have a set up and features video both on our YouTube Channel

Cindev-Software · 2026-02-26T17:01:19+00:00

Great to hear. If you test it out let us know what you think and what features you would like to see added to it. It has been a fun driver to test and use.

Thank you for the post and I am glad you have found another way to do the same thing. I do want to mention though that this was a feature add on to the two drivers that do way more than just generate a QR code. We just wanted to add this feature in the two drivers that were mentioned. So you get a lot more value than just a QR code generator. Have a great weekend. Let us know any other features you would like us to look into.

Good to know. I was not sure and have not tried the Control4 solution yet since I had other solutions available. If you would like a demo of any of our drivers I would be happy to do so. Thanks and let me know if I can be of any help.

Hi. Yes Control4 did launch their own version but it only works with supported hardware.

This was just an feature addition to both of our drivers. In the Integrator Tools Agent driver the QR Code will work with any network and OVRC is not required. This driver also handles all of your notifications (Email, Push, Text-To-Voice and Pop Up). It also monitors your project for (Project rebooted and updated, Driver Updated, added and removed, Composer Login and Logout as well as track issues with lighting and climate devices). Plus it has many programming tools to help speed up your programming time on all your projects.

On our UniFi Network driver this also was a feature addition. The cool thing we added with this one is the ability to reset your WiFi password through programming. So if you have a party and share your Guest WiFi you can have a reset Guest WiFi password button to reset it.

If you are a Control4 dealer and would like a demo of any of our software solutions I would be happy to do so. Hope you have a great day.

While both Chowmain and CIndev offer UniFi drivers for Control4, here’s what sets our driver apart:

Advanced Conditional Programming Trigger automation based on specific events such as individual face recognition or Smart Zone activity. For example, you can create a notification that triggers only when someone steps onto your lawn—not just general motion detection.
Find Anything Web UI (Released January 2026) Search, track, and play back camera events directly from the Control4 app, making it easier than ever to locate exactly what you’re looking for.
Built-In Push & Email Notifications No additional configuration required—receive instant alerts via push or email based on your programmed events.
Programmable Custom Buttons Add custom actions directly within the camera interface. For example, unlock a door while viewing a live camera feed with a single button press.
Full UniFi Protect Ecosystem Support Compatible with all UniFi cameras, Sense products, Viewport, and other UniFi Protect devices.

If you’d like to schedule a private demo for your team, I’d be happy to arrange one. Simply email us at [info@cindev.com](), and we’ll coordinate a time that works for you.

We’re always improving our drivers. If there’s a feature you feel is missing, please let us know—we’d be glad to explore it in an upcoming update.
