Invisiplug, a startup that offered wood-grain patterned surge protectors to blend with home decor, appeared on Shark Tank in 2013. Despite the exposure and sealing a deal with Lori Greiner Invisiplug struggled to maintain momentum and eventually ceased operations.
The company did not pursue crowdfunding and remains inactive, with no significant acquisitions or investments since its Shark Tank appearance. Invisiplug’s innovative idea garnered initial interest but ultimately could not sustain its business in the competitive market. As of 2024, the company is no longer operational and has no current net worth.

Conclusion
Some companies that appear on the show have not achieved great success, and the InvisiPlug is one of them. Sometimes businesses don’t succeed for many reasons. Sometimes, the deal falls through after the founders say yes on camera. Or, as you’ll see, sometimes things happen to the founders themselves, and they choose to abandon the business. Anything is possible. However, InvisiPlug went out of business in 2016. And the product is no longer available in the market.
