What Meridian connects to
Meridian brings several smart-home systems into one desktop view. Support varies by provider, device, and connection type.
Current provider connections
Tuya
Connect compatible Tuya devices through the provider integration.
Amazon Alexa
Link compatible Alexa Smart Home devices after granting the requested Amazon permissions.
Arlo Cloud
Connect compatible Arlo cameras and security devices through the Arlo cloud integration.
Local network discovery
Find equipment supported by Meridian’s LAN discovery and local adapters.
“Local-first” describes Meridian’s own runtime and storage. It does not turn a cloud-dependent device into a local device. Provider services may still receive the requests and data their integrations require.
