It will soon be easier for developers and product makers to build something that “Works with Nest.” The company known most for its well-designed connected thermostat is opening up its own protocol next year, called Nest Weave.
Nest announced the new Weave standard on Thursday in a blog post, describing how it works.
This isn’t the same Weave platform that Nest’s owner, Google, announced earlier this year with the same name as part of Project Brillo.
