Flic (Shortcut Labs) makes wireless smart buttons and dials — the Flic Button, Flic Twist, Flic Duo, and the Flic Hub — that let people control smart-home devices, lights, music, and cloud services with a single press. Its developer surface is SDK- and protocol-centric rather than a REST API: first-party flic2lib SDKs for iOS, Android, C, Linux, and Windows implement the open Flic 2 Bluetooth protocol, the Flic Hub SDK runs JavaScript modules (MQTT, OSC) on the hub, and "Cloud Buttons" deliver physical button presses to any HTTP endpoint as a signed-JWT webhook. Flic is backed by 500 Global and lists 1,000+ compatible devices and services across smart home, healthcare, retail, hospitality, and logistics.
