Tynt

Tynt's core business revolves around its proprietary RME technology, a novel approach to smart glass. Unlike conventional electrochromic technologies that often have limitations in color neutrality and tinting range, RME uses a small electrical voltage to deposit a thin, neutral-colored metal layer onto a surface, blocking light. Reversing the voltage dissolves this layer, returning the glass to a state of high clarity. This process allows the windows to transition from up to 90% visible light transmission to a full blackout state of less than 0.1%, a feature that also provides complete privacy. The technology is bi-stable, meaning it only consumes power when changing the tint level, not to maintain it.

The company's business model is centered on providing this technology as a platform that can be applied directly to glass or as a laminate-ready film, serving both rigid and flexible applications. The primary target market is residential homeowners, with plans to expand into commercial spaces and other verticals like automotive and augmented reality wearables. Tynt aims to deliver a cost-effective solution compared to existing high-end smart window products, which have seen limited adoption in the residential sector. The company has partnered with residential skylight manufacturers to integrate its technology into insulating glass units (IGUs) for product validation. Tynt has raised $16.8 million in funding from investors including Starlight Ventures and Prime Impact Fund to scale its technology and prepare for product launch.
