Pitch

As Featured On

”RYSE currently holds 4 patents in the US and Canada… Holding this IP in a market poised for explosive growth presents a huge opportunity for investors.”

“As RYSE continues to expand its product offerings, its retail partnerships, and its advisory board, I expect the company will get the attention of a larger smart-home focused company.”

“The [RYSE] SmartShade has the rare distinction of being a niche product with an enormous TAM [Total Addressable Market].”

“RYSE has invented one of the last missing pieces in the smart home – the SmartShade – that has the potential to disrupt the $158 billion and growing industry.”

“If you want to talk about an industry that’s growing fast, there may be no better one than the smart home market.”

“Experts in the field believe that the smart shades product category has double-digit compound annual growth rate potential. If so, RYSE may make for an excellent takeover target by some of the automated services’ biggest names.”

“…physically sleek, compact, even elegant.”

“…affordable and doesn’t require you to replace your entire existing shades or blinds…”

Product Roadmap: A Look Into The Future

Our vision is to OWN the “Smart Shade” space. We want RYSE to be synonymous with smart shade — just like what Nest is to the thermostat, Ring is to the doorbell, or Dyson is to the vacuum, we want consumers to think of RYSE when they think of smart shades!

SmartBlind 2025

RYSE SmartBlinds will tilt and lift Venetian blinds, horizontal blinds, or mini-blinds that have a wand or draw-strings. Blinds are the most common window covering in residential homes.

Cordless 2025

Cordless blinds and shades was the most popular lift control in 2019 where users can lift or pull-down to open-and-close. This control system will experience large growth in off-the-shelf blinds,and the residential space, due to child safety.

Invest in a Greener Future

With new laws and regulations – such as the Green New Deal – governments are requiring that all new buildings be net-zero in carbon emissions by 2030. RYSE SmartShades save energy in two ways:

☀️ Solar Heat Gain Management
Automatically lowering shades to block direct sunlight can reduce indoor cooling costs by up to 24%.

💡 Daylight Harvesting
Automatically opening shades during overcast or bright weather can reduce indoor lighting costs by up to 74%.

Smart Home Exits

The Smart Home industry is expected to grow at an impressive compound annual growth rate of 7.5%, growing from $158 billion in 2018, all the way to $262 billion by 2025. The industry has seen some spectacular exits, with big tech giants acquiring many start-ups resulting in large payouts for investors:

Google acquired Nest, the makers of the Smart Thermostat, for $3.2 billion, earning investors a 22X return on invested capital.

Remember Ring? They got rejected on Shark Tank, and ended up selling to Amazon for $1.2 billion. Ring’s founder then became a guest Shark on the show, with the last laugh!

Assa Abloy is a $26+ billion company who dominates door locks, purchased August, the makers of the Smart Lock to expand into the smart home!
