Arlo Technologies (NYSE:ARLO) is a leading provider of smart home security and surveillance solutions, specializing in wire-free, cloud-managed cameras and devices. Since its inception as a division of Netgear in 2014, Arlo has focused on delivering easy-to-install products that enable homeowners and small businesses to monitor interiors and exteriors in real time. The company spun off from Netgear in 2018 and has since expanded its product lineup to include video doorbells, security lights, floodlights, indoor cameras and associated accessories.
Arlo’s core offerings center on a subscription-based services platform that enhances the functionality of its hardware products. These services include cloud storage, intelligent motion detection powered by artificial intelligence, emergency response alerts and advanced privacy features such as auto-delete modes. By combining hardware sales with recurring revenue streams, the company aims to foster long-term customer engagement and broaden its suite of value-added services over time.
Headquartered in San Jose, California, Arlo maintains a global reach with sales and support operations across North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. Its products are distributed through major retail chains, online marketplaces and direct-to-consumer channels, allowing the company to address both residential and small business security needs. Manufacturing and supply chain partnerships, primarily in the Asia-Pacific, support Arlo’s drive to scale production and manage costs efficiently.
Under the leadership of Chief Executive Officer Matthew McRae, a veteran of Netgear and early pioneer of the Arlo brand, the company continues to invest in research and development with an emphasis on AI, computer vision and 5G connectivity. Arlo’s management team has prioritized product innovation and service integration to differentiate its offering in a highly competitive security market, positioning the company for growth as demand for connected-home solutions expands globally.
