Omer Brookstein Is Teaching the Machines in the Meeting Room to Phone Home

Xyte
Xyte is a cloud platform that lets hardware manufacturers, system integrators, and enterprises connect, monitor, service, and commercialize their connected devices from a single place. Its Xyte Device Cloud (also branded as a Connected Device Management Platform) turns physical products into software-driven, subscription-ready services - handling everything from remote monitoring and firmware updates to billing and AI-assisted support. Founded in 2019 by AV-industry veteran Omer Brookstein and software builder Boris Dinkevich, Xyte works with manufacturers across pro AV, unified communications, smart buildings, medical, and robotics, including names like Crestron, Legrand, Poly, QSC, Biamp, and Panasonic.
