The Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA) is a member-driven organization that develops the Matter smart home standard. Matter was designed to enable smart home devices to work across different ecosystems, and Aliro is a new specification within that framework.
Not much has been shared about Aliro since the original announcement. Recently, interest has increased as manufacturers prepare Aliro-compatible products, such as those showcased at CES 2026.
