Extra SmartThings for all! See Update 16 for details.
YOUR WORLD, SMARTERSmartThings makes it easy to connect the things in your physical world to the Internet. You can monitor, control, automate, and have fun with them from anywhere - at home, office, or on the go.
We've made it possible to install apps that interact with your SmartThings, as well as online and other services. This unlocks a world of possibilities and and unlimited potential to make your life easier, more convenient and fun.
We call these SmartApps.
SmartApps are able to mash up and interact with connected things in your physical world, as well as online and other services, allowing for incredible creativity.
Even more SmartApps...
Think about all the things in your home: doors, desks, lights, stereo, pet food bowls, basement floor... isn’t it time they started to chip in and do a little more around the house on their own? SmartThings makes it possible.
INSTACUBE UPDATE!
We built SmartThings as an open platform, because we knew there would be a world of useful, beautiful and creative products that could be made smarter with SmartThings.
Today, we’re thrilled to announce a unique partnership between two Kickstarter projects - SmartThings and Instacube - that shows the power of this integration and collaboration. Together, we're making Instacube smart.
We will be working with the creators of Instacube to integrate the SmartThings technology - imagine the possibilities:
If you love SmartThings, please consider backing Instacube.
Many of the existing things you own can be made smarter using SmartThings Kits. At launch, the following core devices will be available:
SmartThings are designed to be compatible with many of the existing standards for home automation, smart energy and more. There are literally hundreds of existing sensors and devices you can use. And with your support, many more of these devices will be certified for use and made available in the SmartThings Store.
You can help bring SmartThings to the world. We’ve highlighted a few of the backer levels below, including:
SmartThings Packs
Note: SmartThings Packs will support a variety of connectivity methods, including Ethernet, cellular, Zigbee, Z-wave, and Bluetooth. The initial launch units will be U.S. only, and may or may not include cellular connectivity.
If you’re a developer or Maker, SmartThings is an open platform and we’ve got a whole program just for you.
Developer and Maker Kits
We're giving the more adventurous among us early access to all the SmartThings tools. All Makers and Developers backer levels come with...
Want to do even more to make the world smarter?
Share the SmartThings story. We know not everyone can kick in, but if you believe in the SmartThings vision, please "Like" this Kickstarter page, Tweet about us, Pin us, and email all your friends. While you're at it, visitSmartThings on Facebook and "Like" us there too!
Donate your brain to science. Every day our team, spouses, partners, and friends come up with interesting, fun, helpful (and occasionally bizarre) new ways to apply SmartThings and SmartApps. We want everyone in the community to share their ideas. Just go to the Comments section and tell us how you envision making your life smarter.
We want to free physical devices from the iron grip of the few who understand the ins and outs of firmware. That's why SmartThings will be a completely open platform. Our core mission for SmartApps is to enable developers to unleash their creativity in the real world just as easily as they have been able to on the web and mobile devices.
There are two paths to creating new SmartApps. Basic, and Advanced.
We give your front door an API. We give your bed an API. We give your toilet an API... your imagination is the only limit.
The uses are endless, so don’t be shy. Let’s work together to make the physical world smarter.
We’ve got dozens of ideas to share for how to make our lives smarter, but we're also eager to hear yours. Tell us about them in the Comments section.
But, if you’re handy with a soldering iron, know that a breadboard isn’t just for cutting Rye, can casually slip Arduino into daily conversation, and are ready to hack your own physical world, we’re ready to support you. For you makers and open hardware buffs, we’ve got:
Tell us about your project and we’ll help you bring it to the world.
We currently have working prototypes of the key hardware and software components of the SmartThings Packs that you are backing as part of this Kickstarter project, including the hub, end-devices, maker tools, cloud platform, and mobile app.
Here is our timeline for putting SmartThings into your hands:

The SmartThings founders share a vision: A product experience that is beautiful, functional, fast and revolutionary. We can’t wait to get SmartThings into your hands. Reach out to us in the Comments section if you want to speak with any of us directly.
There were two major “aha moments” that inspired us to develop SmartThings.
Like most innovation, SmartThings started with a flooded basement. During a power outage, the pipes at Alex’s cabin froze and burst, flooding the basement. In looking for options to get notified about temperature drops and flooding, it became clear that available solutions required a separate Internet connection. Even if the cabin had one, it would have shut off in the power outage.
So the concept of ‘it just works’ for SmartThings was born. We built a platform that easily connects everyday things to the Internet. Our vision is to include always-on cellular connectivity in every SmartThings Hub, so you just take it out of the box, plug it in, and it’s connected. Even better, when you buy new devices, what we call Things, from the ThingStore, they’ll be pre-assigned to your SmartThings Hub. Plug them in or turn them on, they show up in the app, and you’re immediately in control.
Our real inspiration came when we realized how intelligent everything in our lives could become through the power of computing in the cloud - SmartApps were born. Installing applications into your real life should be as easy as it is on your phone. SmartApps let you combine schedules, events, notifications, information from the Internet and many sensors and devices to create useful solutions that make life easier and more fun.
