Jamie Siminoff grew up in Chester, New Jersey, working from a young age in his father's manufacturing business, and is a lifelong inventor who graduated from Babson College. Before Ring he founded several ventures, including PhoneTag, an early voicemail-to-text service, and Unsubscribe.com. He built the first Wi-Fi video doorbell in his garage in 2011 because he couldn't hear his doorbell while working there, launching it as Doorbot and pitching it on Shark Tank in 2013, where he famously left without a deal. Renamed Ring, the company grew into the defining video-doorbell brand and was acquired by Amazon in 2018 for a reported $1 billion. Siminoff left Amazon in 2023 but returned in early 2025 to again lead Ring and Amazon's connected-security business, with a stated focus on applying AI across the products.

Ring's video doorbells are the products that defined the category: Wi-Fi-connected doorbells with a camera, motion detection, two-way audio, and night vision that let users see and speak with visitors from a smartphone whether or not they're home. The line spans entry-level battery models to wired, higher-resolution Pro and Elite versions with features like head-to-toe view, package detection, and pre-roll motion capture. Footage and event history live in the Ring app, with cloud recording available on a Ring Protect subscription. The doorbells are the front door of Ring's broader security ecosystem and a primary source of its Neighbors content.
Beyond doorbells, Ring sells a wide range of indoor and outdoor security cameras (including Stick Up Cam, Spotlight Cam, and Floodlight Cam) and the Ring Alarm system — a DIY kit with a base station, keypad, contact and motion sensors, and a range extender, offered with optional 24/7 professional monitoring via Ring Protect. Everything is managed in a single Ring app with shared motion alerts, live view, and linked automations. Together the cameras and alarm extend Ring from doorbells into a full home-security platform, while integration with Amazon Alexa ties the hardware into the broader Amazon smart-home ecosystem.
Neighbors is Ring's location-based social app where users share and discuss local safety and crime information and post footage captured by Ring devices. It functions as a neighborhood watch feed, surfacing nearby incidents and alerts. Neighbors has been central to debates over Ring's privacy and civil-liberties impact, particularly around past programs that facilitated footage-sharing with police, and it remains a defining and controversial part of how Ring extends individual cameras into a community-scale surveillance network. The feature differentiates Ring from pure-hardware competitors by adding a social and informational layer on top of its devices.
