Question

Was the Ring doorbell on Shark Tank?

Asked by Adrian Cole · Ring (Doorbot)

I heard the Ring video doorbell was pitched on Shark Tank as "Doorbot". Is that true?

It was pitched on Shark Tank as "Doorbot" and did not get a deal from the Sharks. The company later rebranded as Ring, raised outside funding, and was acquired by Amazon in 2018 in a deal widely reported to be worth around one billion dollars — making it one of the most famous "the Sharks passed" stories.
