Tuya Inc. (Chinese: 涂鸦智能; lit. 'Graffiti Intelligence'; dba Tuya Smart) is a Chinese artificial intelligence and Internet of things (IoT) platform as a service (PaaS) provider founded in 2014.
The company provides a cloud development and management platform to developers, brands, and OEMs to program, manage, and monetize smart home and IoT devices.[2]
Tuya is supported by New Enterprise Associates and Tencent. In March 2021 it raised $915 million in the U.S. initial public offering and trades on the NYSE.[3] It launched a global offering on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in July 2022,[4] giving itself dual primary listings in Hong Kong and New York.[5] Tuya was incorporated in the Cayman Islands.[1]
Internationally, Tuya partners with companies including Schneider Electric, Lenovo, and Philips.[6] It is a member on the board of directors of the Connectivity Standards Alliance[7] and has committed to supporting the Matter connectivity standard.[8][9]
In 2021, multiple media outlets reported an investigation by cybersecurity firm Dark Cubed, suggesting that Tuya's network-connected devices are subject to China's Data Security Law, and "are woefully insecure and sending data to China."[10][11]
