The good news: Nanit is one of the best-known smart baby monitor brands and raised $50 million in late 2025 to keep growing. A monitor only needs to last a few years, which works in its favor here.
The bad news: Nanit is still a startup that depends on investors, and it is positioning itself more as a subscription service than a camera brand. Almost everything runs through its cloud, so the monitor would be of little use if the service ended.
If you own Nanit
- Check what your plan includes before you rely on features like sleep tracking or video history.
- Keep the app and camera firmware updated, since security fixes arrive that way.
