A smart home hub is a central unit that connects various smart devices, facilitating smooth communication between them while offering easy control and automation. With this setup, users can manage their home's lighting, security, temperature, and more from one interface or with voice commands.
The primary types of smart home hubs are multi-protocol hubs and platform or ecosystem hubs. Multi-protocol hubs are designed to support multiple communication standards, ensuring compatibility across various smart devices. These devices encompass a wide range of options, including smart speakers, displays, thermostats, lighting controllers, and security systems. They work with various technologies such as wired, wireless, Bluetooth, Zigbee, and Z-Wave, and offer compatibility with different platforms, smartphones, voice assistants, IoT devices, and smart appliances. These hubs serve a variety of purposes, such as home automation, energy management, security, healthcare monitoring, and entertainment control.

The smart home hub market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $405.08 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.6%. The growth expected during the forecast period can be attributed to factors such as the increasing demand for edge computing in home automation, the expansion of 5G connectivity, a growing consumer preference for seamless multi-device integration, heightened focus on privacy-conscious smart home hubs, and improvements in voice control accuracy and multilingual support. Key trends during this period include AI-powered automation, integration with the Matter protocol, edge computing for quicker processing, biometric authentication, and multi-modal interaction.
The growing adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies is expected to drive the expansion of the smart home hub market. IoT technologies enable devices to connect to the internet for data collection, sharing, and utilization, facilitating automation and smarter decision-making. As businesses and consumers increasingly seek enhanced automation to streamline operations, reduce manual effort, and enable real-time data-driven decision-making, the demand for IoT solutions continues to rise. Smart home hubs play a crucial role in supporting IoT by serving as central communication bridges that connect, integrate, and automate various smart devices, ensuring seamless control and interoperability within a connected ecosystem. For example, in August 2023, Estuary Technologies Inc., a US-based technology company specializing in real-time data integration solutions, reported a 66% increase in the number of IoT devices, reaching approximately 19.8 billion, compared to an 18% growth in 2022, which brought the total to around 14.4 billion. This increasing adoption of IoT technologies is significantly contributing to the growth of the smart home hub market.
Leading companies in the smart home hub market are prioritizing the development of innovative smart home hubs with versatile matter controllers that incorporate thread and Bluetooth protocols. These advancements aim to enhance device compatibility, improve connectivity, and streamline smart home automation. Thread and Bluetooth protocol is a low-power, IPv6-based wireless networking protocol designed for smart home devices, offering secure, reliable, and scalable mesh communication without the need for a central hub. For instance, in January 2024, Aqara, a China-based technology company specializing in smart home automation, introduced the Hub M3, a new smart home hub integrating thread and Bluetooth protocols. This hub enhances the connectivity and communication of smart devices, allowing users to manage their entire home from a single central device while improving convenience, security, and efficiency. With this upgrade, the M3 functions as a versatile matter controller and thread border router, making it an ideal hub for a seamless, locally managed, and future-ready smart home.
In February 2024, Fibocom Wireless Inc., a China-based technology company specializing in wireless communication solutions for smart home hubs, announced a partnership with STMicroelectronics N.V.
