Company mission
To put homeowners back in control of their wired home technology through open, accessible, and affordable smart home monitoring.
Our take
Konnected makes hardware and software products that allow owners to easily retrofit traditional wired alarm systems, and connect them to modern smart home automation and security platforms like SmartThings, Alexa, and Home Assistant, in turn saving users the cost of installing a brand new system.
The company was founded in 2017, and though still comparatively small, it’s built up a great reputation among consumers. Indeed, it's this customer loyalty that’s driving Konnected’s growth ambitions. Rather than seeking venture capital support to scale its operations, it has elected to complete a series of successful crowdfunding campaigns, with active community users taking equity in the company.
The way CEO Nate Clark sees this, it allows Konnected to stay more closely committed to its mission and ultimately, its customers. The fact that Konnected is already generating profits is really encouraging, and now having raised these funds, the company is aiming to add to its headcount and accelerate growth. Considering that the $5 billion North American home security system market is currently growing by around 20% annually, Konnected is in a great position to expand.
