Throwback Thursday to January 2017 when SmashToast CEO and inventor of the PUCK, Barnabas Helmy, was interviewed by local news in Champaign, Illinois!

As stated in the interview, PUCK works with a variety of devices including a television, space heater and Apple TV. PUCK is different from our competitors because it is a wireless solution to connect traditional infrared-remote controlled devices to the smartphone. We focused on simplicity over confusing features, and our modest price point ($29.99) gives our customers a low-cost solution to enter into the smart home revolution.
