I'm a developer that recently discovered Seam (credit to a stack overflow thread). For my app Home Alerts, Seam is a bridge to device manufactures that do not offer a pubic API. The expensive alternative requires persistence through unanswered linkedIn msgs, cold calls, and the common "interested in integrating" web forms that seem to go nowhere. Even when achieving a direct manufacture affiliation, I'm then tasked with integrating with the their unique authorization-workflow and often clunky APIs.

Seam solves that problem. Utilizing Seam's existing partnerships and common APIs, I can add support for 20+ new devices within just a few days (vs months). My current customers include BnB hosts, and residential users seeking remote monitoring/control. We're making the push into the PMS market in Q4, which became achievable due to our new Seam partnership.

If anyone is interested in a demo of our current seam-powered integrations please reach out bwebb@homealerts.app
