Blink is a prominent brand in the smart home security sector, known for its affordable and wireless video monitoring solutions. The brand first gained attention through a successful Kickstarter campaign in 2014, focusing on ultra-low-power energy-efficient technology that allows cameras to run for years on a single set of batteries. The brand's focus on simplicity and cloud-based storage quickly made it a popular choice for residential security.

While the technology and brand originated in the United States, the physical manufacturing of the hardware is primarily conducted in China. This is a common practice for high-volume consumer electronics to ensure global availability and competitive pricing. The hardware designs are proprietary, while the ecosystem is heavily integrated with modern voice assistants and smart home hubs.

In late 2017, the brand underwent a significant transition when it was acquired by Amazon. This acquisition integrated the product line into the larger Amazon Devices ecosystem, alongside other security brands like Ring. Today, the brand serves as a core part of the global e-commerce giant's strategy to provide accessible home automation and surveillance technology to consumers worldwide.
