RYSE Announces Reg A Investment Round to Fuel Growth in the Professional Smart Home Channel

New trade brand MOTORYSE demonstrates early growth, signing two new U.S. distribution deals with DSG and Mountain West Distributors

NEW YORK, Oct. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- RYSE Inc., the smart home company that motorizes existing window coverings, today announced the launch of its latest investment round at USD $2.60 per share through its Regulation A offering qualified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on October 9. The offering includes up to 15,751,655 shares, for a maximum raise of approximately $40.95 million. The round follows the launch of MOTORYSE, RYSE's new brand for the professional trade channel, which signed two U.S. distribution agreements after its debut at CEDIA Expo 2026.

Since its founding in 2015, RYSE has built a leading position in retrofit window covering automation, generating more than $20 million in lifetime revenue, holding 10 issued patents, and selling its products at retail in more than 100 Best Buy stores. The new round will support RYSE's expansion into the professional channel, where smart home integrators, dealers, and installers are increasingly turning to retrofit solutions.

"Coming out of CEDIA with two major distributors signed, we're seeing firsthand how much demand there is for retrofit automation in the professional trade channel," said Trung Pham, Founder and CEO of RYSE. "This funding round gives us the fuel to rapidly scale in this market and equip integrators and fabricators with the retrofit solutions they're after."

RYSE Products

RYSE's flagship products, SmartShade and SmartCurtain, are robotic devices that allow users to motorize and automate their existing window shades and curtains. SmartShade connects onto any shade with a beaded chain, such as roller shades and vertical blinds while SmartCurtain fits on a curtain rod or track. The devices can be controlled via mobile app, remote control, or voice-controlled AI assistant and can be set to open and close on a schedule. The devices can also be activated by interacting with the window covering, like tugging on a curtain. The motors can be integrated into a larger smart home ecosystem with IFTTT, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Apple HomeKit.

MOTORYSE: Created for the Professional Channel

RYSE introduced MOTORYSE at CEDIA Expo 2026 in Denver as a brand built exclusively for smart home integrators, window covering dealers, installers and distributors. MOTORYSE runs on RYSE's proven technology and adds dedicated trade support, dealer programs, professional integrations with Control4 and Josh.ai, and distribution infrastructure. MOTORYSE was founded to give integrators, dealers, and fabricators a way to deliver motorized shades, blinds, and curtains without replacing a client's existing window coverings. Retrofit solutions unlock a new product category and revenue stream for dealers and integrators.

MOTORYSE Signs U.S. Distribution Agreements

• DSG Distributors will carry MOTORYSE across the New York region, serving professional AV and smart home integrators in one of the largest residential technology markets in the U.S.
• Mountain West Distributors (MWD) will carry MOTORYSE across its locations in Utah, Colorado, Arizona, Oregon and Washington. MWD is a founding member of the PowerHouse Alliance, a national network of professional technology distributors with more than 70 distribution locations and coverage across all major U.S. markets.

"At DSG Distributors, we look for solutions that help our dealers win more business and deliver real value to their customers. That's what makes MOTORYSE compelling to us," said Dave Silkin, President and CEO of DSG Distributors. "The ability to automate compatible shades, blinds and curtains customers already own opens up opportunities in both residential and commercial projects. It gives dealers a reason to reconnect with existing clients and offer an upgrade without asking them to replace window treatments they already like."

"We are excited to partner with MOTORYSE. They offer a unique product that fills a hole for our dealers and helps round out our shades category," said Garrett Breinholt, Sales Manager at Mountain West Distributors.
