Overview
Seam is an API infrastructure platform that unifies control of every brand of smart lock, thermostat and connected sensor (Nuki, Yale, August, Igloohome, Schlage, Minut, etc.) through a single standardised API. It lets software vendors and managers of mixed portfolios run all their devices without building a separate integration for each brand.
Who it's for
- 50 to 200 properties: tech-savvy property managers running apartments fitted with locks from different brands.
- 200 to 500+ properties: property management software vendors and in-house platforms.
Key features
- Universal smart lock API: Create, edit and delete scheduled PIN access codes across more than 30 manufacturers worldwide.
- Seam Console & Webhooks: Visual interface for managing devices, battery, connection status and alerts.
- Mobile key support (Virtual Keys): Sends secure web links to open doors without installing the manufacturer's app.
Limitations
- Built for developers / integrators: Requires compatible software or technical skills to plug in the API.
