Wyze Labs, Inc. today announced its $20 million Series A funding to build the next generation of accessible and affordable smart home products. Led by Norwest Venture Partners, the round comes on the heels of Wyze's category-defining success in selling over 1.5 million units of its first products, Wyze Cam and Wyze Cam Pan, since launching in October 2017. This funding is in addition to the previous seed funding investment from iSeed Ventures.

"We've had a singular focus on making pragmatic hardware and software that actually improve people's lives, and this new capital infusion will help us continue that mission," said Yun Zhang, Co-Founder and CEO of Wyze. "Without our tremendous and wonderful community, we would never have been able to build a $100 million company in just one year. We're looking forward to offering them more, and listening to the community's feedback as we continue to expand into new areas of the home."

Wyze will use the funding to grow their existing team, as well as bring more affordable and accessible products to the smart home ecosystem. With the emergence of the smart home in recent years, Wyze is committed and well-positioned to offer easy-to-use products at a reasonable price.

"Wyze proved that a smart home camera doesn't have to be expensive to be great, which has driven adoption across a much broader base of consumers than ever before," said Parker Barrile, Partner at Norwest Venture Partners. "I'm excited to partner with Yun and his team to build the next generation of smart home devices and services that everyone can afford."
