About Solace

One lab. One team.
Everything we sell, we built.

Solace Technologies LLC was founded in Cairo in 2011 as an engineering house. Today it is the holding company behind Solace Stay, Solace Iris, and Solace Smart Homes - with one R&D lab, one balance sheet, and one leadership team accountable for everything that ships.

The story

From a bench in Cairo
to four product lines.

2011 — The engineering house

Solace starts as a hands-on engineering team in Cairo - electronics, embedded firmware, and software for clients who needed products built, not slideware. The discipline of shipping real hardware never left the company.

2011 — Solace Smart Homes

We launch the region’s first in-house smart-home brand - designed, engineered, and manufactured in our own facilities. Today, Solace Smart Homes hardware runs in 7,000+ rooms, Matter-ready and locally supported.

Today — The holding company

The same bench now ships Solace Stay into hotels, Solace Iris onto cameras and bins, and Enterprise AI into corporate departments - across Europe, the GCC, and the US, from headquarters in New Cairo.

The vision

To be the global benchmark for trusted technology partnerships delivering full-spectrum product creation and AI-powered solutions that do not just meet industry standards. They define them.

How we build

Five stages.
No vendor handoffs.

Every Solace product - and every product we build for partner brands - moves through the same five stages on the same bench. This is also how R&D as a Service works when the name on the box is yours.

  1. 01

    Design

    Industrial design, electronics architecture, mechanical CAD, and a costed bill of materials.

    Sketch · CAD · BOM
  2. 02

    Proof of concept

    One working unit on the bench - real silicon, real firmware, real radios - to prove the riskiest part first.

    PCB rev0 · firmware spike
  3. 03

    Prototype

    Pilot run, certifications, regulatory testing, and a cleaned-up enclosure your sales team can hand over.

    DVT · CE / FCC · field pilots
  4. 04

    Mass production

    Assembly in our own facilities, supply chain in our own hands, QA gates we run ourselves.

    SMT · QA · logistics
  5. 05

    Maintenance

    Firmware OTA, RMA, spares, and end-of-life planning. Lifecycle, not just launch.
