SmartRent

SmartRent is a smart-building technology company founded in 2017 and headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, United States; it has traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker SMRT since 2021. It was created to help owners and operators of rental housing automate property operations and deliver connected living experiences at scale, instead of managing devices and workflows manually across scattered properties.

Its platform pairs hardware — smart locks, thermostats, and sensors — with cloud software split into two lines: Smart Communities, covering resident-facing automation and access control, and Smart Operations, covering maintenance work orders and call automation. The company reports its technology is used by 15 of the top 20 US multifamily operators, powering about 890,000 homes through Smart Communities and 1.2 million homes through Smart Operations.
