Latch completes acquisition of Jamie Siminoff’s company Honest Day’s Work

Latch said it has completed the previously announced acquisition of Honest Day’s Work (HDW), a Jamie Siminoff company.

Siminoff is the founder and former CEO of Ring, which was acquired by Amazon in 2018. According to a press release, HDW “is on a mission to enable independence through technology for residential service providers, such as housekeepers, dog walkers, electricians and drivers.”

Approximately 30 HDW employees have joined Latch as a result of the acquisition, including Siminoff, who is expected to take over as Latch’s CEO later this year.

“We are pleased to officially have Jamie and his team on board as we continue to focus on delivering for our customers and building steady growth and momentum for the business. I am excited about opportunities to enhance Latch with HDW’s services to further improve our user experience and deliver new features that make customers’ and users’ lives easier,” said Jason Keyes, Latch’s interim CEO, in a statement.

“With the completion of the acquisition, I am excited to get to work on combining Latch and HDW to build a disciplined, efficient and truly innovative business. By combining access control with HDW’s mission, there is huge opportunity to improve the lives of residents, building managers, and service providers alike,” added Siminoff.
