About

Smart home startup Brilliant has laid off the majority of its workforce and is seeking a buyer after running out of cash, as confirmed by CEO Aaron Emigh in May 2024. The company, which manufactures smart light switches and controllers, failed to secure a Series C funding round or find an acquisition partner, leading to this drastic step. While the exact number of employees affected isn't specified, the layoffs encompass most staff and include the shutdown of the support center. Brilliant's products are no longer for sale, but the company maintains that existing devices will continue to operate as servers are kept online during this transition period.
