A smart lock is a popular smart device for interior designers and custom home builders. These smart devices are a must-have for today's smart home because they provide three key features: security, convenience, and style. Smart locks can provide a home or office with an added layer of protection. They can be programmed only to allow certain people access and can also be used to track who has entered and exited a building.

Smart locks also offer convenience. They can make it easier for people to get in and out of a building. They can be unlocked with a key fob, a smartphone, or a voice command. And lastly, smart locks provide a layer of style. They can add a touch of style to a home or office, which complements the smart home or office's décor.

However, one of the biggest challenges today for interior designers is finding smart locks that have the look they want and are compatible with their customer's smart home security systems. They have to not only find the right design and finish for a door lock, but they also have to make sure it's compatible with their customer's smart home systems, which could be anything from a do-it-yourself (DIY) home security system to an entire home automation platform like Control4 and Crestron. This is not easy and requires knowledge of the smart home device market. At GearBrain, we have s solution that can solve this problem and help both the home builder and interior designer solve this problem across all smart device categories.

What makes us different and unique is our patent for an IoT configurator which is the nucleus of The GearBrain. Our patent allows us to help a user search for compatibility of two or more products across a single ecosystem. So if you want to find a smart lock that works with your home security system or maybe your video doorbell plus Samsung SmartThings, GearBrain is the only place you can go to find this information quickly and easily.

And, 73% of smart home device owners or intenders say Interoperability is important or highly important in choosing which smart home product to buy."
