About Seam:
Seam builds an API for controlling IoT devices, such as door locks,
thermostats, sensors, cameras, and more. Software developers and businesses
then use Seam's API to connect devices with their applications and orchestrate
their use. This lets them unlock doors for Airbnb guests or FedEx drivers, set
thermostat temperatures to save energy and measure carbon emissions, and more.
The company was founded by early engineers from Nest, Github, Sonder, and
Google. Based in San Francisco, Seam is backed by Tiger Global, Root Ventures,
YC, and founders/execs from companies like Stripe, Plaid, Flexport, Airbnb, and
many others.
