Who is Wyze?

Wyze is a high growth, Series B, consumer technology company. Our vision is to make great technology accessible to everyone through our smart home platform. Our aim is to serve everyday people, like me, you, and our friends and families, with too good to be true products and services.

GeekWire calls us a start-up to watch and one of the Pacific Northwest’s next unicorns… and we are just getting started.

Our people centric innovative vision is not only present in our products and services, but it is also embedded in the fabric of our company.
